Fujitsu Lifebook 5010

[videofx]

I have a Fujitsu LifeBook. I am using the latest Iboot. I boot in safe mode using -x, The laptop has an Intel 4 Series Express. The install hangs with 4 UHCI Controller message just after it says "Intel VGA Controller"

I am guessing the boot stops because of the video? If so is there anyway to get it to work?

Thanks for any help!

That's integrated video right? If it's this one, unfortunately you're not going to be able to run Snow Leopard on it.

Ah, the Mobile Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 4500, here's what I found:

1- There is no 4500 driver and there never will be. Apple has moved away from intel graphic chips, and is not likely someone will code a driver from scratch
2- The fix suggested by birdracer isnt a driver. Off course you cannot do gaming, but also you cannot use DVDPlayer.app and a lot of other apps that need QE/CI enabled. They just wont work. So in a way is kind of useless to have OSX on such a machine.

Yeah, but that's only for screen resolution, you still will never be able to do anything worthwhile- it will be pointless. If you want to try it, just type this at the Chameleon screen just after swapping for the Mac OS X Retail DVD:

"Graphics Mode"="1280x720x32"

With quotes and everything- just as written here. Good luck!
