I'll try to be more specific, according to the verbose prompt, the CPU's shutting down fine and my screen blacks out, like it would if it were off. However, I can still hear the fan moving and the PC tower's remains on. What can I do about this?
Okay, I just realized that this started happening when I upgraded to 10.5.8. My nVidia 8500GT 512mb graphics card also isn't supporting quartz extreme.

First of all, a huge thank you to icchansan. This tutorial is what got me into the world of hackintosh. Also a thank you to the folks that keep on posting their issues in here. It's a huge help to idiots like me who run into the same problems.

As it stands now, I'm running a quad boot with Vista x64, Windows 7 x64, Ubuntu 9.04 x64, and OS X 10.5.8 (iatkos v7). I'm headed to bed here pretty quick, but after I can gather up all my links and notes, I'm going to post a tutorial on how I did it. I figure it's about time I gave something back to the community I've been lurking around for so long.
I'll post it up in the tutorials section tomorrow afternoon and drop a link to it in this post. :)
I was hoping that someone might be able to give me a hand.
I have a HP elite M9150f
I have a Iatkos v7
I have now tried installing OSX about 12 ties and i get to the grey mac screen and it wont let me go past there. I have tried -v, -s, -f, -cpus=1, -cpus=2 all with no response. When i tried it on my laptop which didnt work either it got to the grey mac screen and then i could slide the power button and it would go allthe way to a apple keyboard error and freeze up but when i try to press the power button on my desktop it just shuts it off right away.
I have
Intel core 2 quad q6600

I am trying to install it onto a seagate freeagent go P/N 9nn2a3-500 because my computers hard drives are in raid configuration with windows vista, windows 7, and ubuntu.
Any advice or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
Don't use the cpu's flag with the dash (-); Instead try just using "cpus=1" instead. If you have more than 2gb of ram, also try the "maxmem=2048" flag as well and see if that helps.
It could also be crashed due to the raid that you have setup (even though you are not booting from it, OSX may detect it if it's still connected to your computer)
