Hi all, this is my first hackintosh build so I just chose every item from the guide for the high end build from new egg. Clicked thru and ordered everything. I assembled the hardware fine and with help from the forums here got to the install screen with 2 flags.. the GraphicsEnabler=No and npci=0x2000 at the boot screen.

My problem is when it says choose the disk you want to install OS X on.. the box is blank. When I hit F12 at the beginning sometimes I get the choose a disk to boot from, so I select my sandisk 16GB USB stick. The other choices are my sandisk 120 ssd (so I know it's registering) and my dvd drive. I also chose my ssd in the bios as priority boot. One thing though, it's not the one on the guide, which now I'm wondering if it's the problem. Clicking thru the link was dead so I bought what I thought was the same thing from new egg...

SSD 120GB Sandisk SDSSDX 120G-G25

Any help is appreciated and thanks in advance:)
 
Did you erase the drive in Disk Utility?
 
Ugh, I should have known that... smacks head.. loading up now np.

Thanks for the quick reply !
