drecam Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 I've been trying to install osx on my acer m5811 everything seems to go fine, but when I restart the apple gray screen comes up and just restarts. What am I doing wrong here. What settings do I need customize here to get it booted up Thanks in advance My Specs; Intel® Core™ i5 processor 650 8GB ddr3 Nvidia GeForce GT320 1GB Intel 82578DC gigabit network Intel® ICH8R/ICH9R/ICH10R/DO/PCH SATA RAID Controller JMicron JMB36X Controller Realtek HD Audio Nvdia HD Audio Quote Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/267620-help-installing-osx-hazard-sl/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaCkErz Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 Hello drecam... First of all, u could try removing ur RAM... Just leave ur RAM as 4GB only rather than 8GB... If u just bought ur acer m5811, then this will make ur acer warranty's void... If u don't want to do this, then u could try starting up ur SL with cpus=1 busratio=20 ... Usually that does the trick... If u still can't get to the desktop, then the last thing that I would do is enter -v -f at the startup screen... Gud luck to u...
