I have a new install of OSx86 (used iPC). After booting into OSx, and going about my business for a minute, or two, this happens:



Is this the result of using the wrong kernel or chipset, or perhaps is it a driver issue?

I installed using Voodoo kernel 9.5.0, and the "Intel ICH10 SATA Support" chipset (though my machine doesn't have SATA).

My pc is a Compaq Evo D51C (D510 CMT) with a P4 @ 2.4ghz, 512mb of ddr 266 (PC2100) ram. The mobo is an Intel 845G chipset, and it has Intel extreme graphics, AC97 audio (I think), and a built-in nic (I'm not sure what specifics).

One more thing - is it possible that I should not use the "Intel ICH10 SATA Support" chipset since my mobo is "Intel 845G" chipset?

Thanks for the help!

I tried reinstalling with the "Intel ICHx..." chipset and got the same thing happening...



Any suggestions?

Did you install from the Fixes and Patches - Seatbelt.kext 10.5.5 ?

I did not install the "Seatbelt" patch. I'll give that a try.

Can you tell me, from the screenshot what tipped you off that I needed to use the "Seatbelt" patch?

Thank you so much. I'll give this a try then report back.

Well if your using voodoo you need that kext, btw did you try another kernel?

Before you suggested the Seatbelt patch, I had already tried 3 other kernels, all with the same issue when downloading apps. After trying your suggestion, with the Voodoo kernel, it has been running fine for almost a day. I've downloaded and installed all the basic apps (chat/irc/firefox/etc...) with no issues whatsoever. SO, it looks like (hopefully) you fixed my problem. Thank you soooo much.

ALL HAIL ICCHANSAN !

Good to hear that man, enjoy
