[SOLVED] Freezing at iBoot-Chameleon screen pre-install

[MusicMan]

Thanks in advance for any help!

So I run iBoot Supported (tried nVidia version as well) and the first screen comes up (OS/partition selection screen), and then it freezes. I cannot use the arrow keys to move between iBoot and my old, soon-to-be-erased partition. And when I insert my OS X Retail disk (legit) it doesn't appear when I press F5. If I try typing -v or -w first thing, nothing happens. For troubleshooting purposes I also tried the manual method of installing with Chameleon, and I used the included kexts (not sure if I need more... I wish I knew...) and the same thing happens.

Forgive me if I say noobish things, sometimes I feel kind of lost. I'm not a compsci major but I generally know my way around computers.

Thank you!!!

You might need to enable LegacyUSB in BIOS, or the equivalent in your board, to have a USB keyboard work in Chameleon..(assumes it's kb not working, rather than a freeze).

Solved! A bit embarrassing really. For some reason, USB Keyboard Support was disabled in my BIOS!

Thanks humph!
