I suggest you have a look at the hardware compatibily list. I don;t remember where I found it I think it was on teh ideneb wiki. You need to check your mobo as well.

Beerkex'd Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 What motherboard do you have? It looks like an ASUS board with P45 chipset. Is your DVD drive PATA or SATA? Set SATA to AHCI mode in the BIOS. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/163959-will-it-or-wont-it/#findComment-1143268 Share on other sites More sharing options...
