  1. Hello, My report follows: I have tried to delete nv100*.kext and have booted with the commands: -f GraphicsEnabler=No But still I get the white screen with the spinning logo. I then deleted all the folders starting with: "nv" and then booted with the commands: -f graphicsEnabler=No Yay, it works! thanks for the help!!! but: once I click on continue, after having selected the language, it presents me with utilities: restore from time machine backup, reinstall, disk utility etc. I choose reinstall and click on continue, and it gives me the following: this copy of mountain lion is damaged etc. sorry I can't remember exact word. So, my question is: having deleted those nv folders, what could I do now? Could you please help me to find a copy that I can install please?
  2. Hello, Much thanks for your reply, I will do as you suggested and report back soon. Thanks again! Regards,
  3. Hello Everybody, Please could someone help me, I'd be much appreciated as I would really like to try out a mountain lion hackintosh for the first time. I am trying to install mountain lion 10.8.3 to be specific. Here are the steps I have done: 1. Mounted InstallESD.dmg 2. Mount basesystem.dmg and cloned it to a removable drive. 3. Deleted the alias packages and replaced it with the normal packages folder. 4. copied the mach_kernel, (sorry for spelling) to the USB drive. 5. created a folder called Extra on the USB drive, and copied Extensions.mkext as well as org.chameleon.Boot.plist and smbios.plist which I got from: http://www.tonycrapx86.com/viewtopic.php?t=26252 6. Installed Chameleon-2.1svn-r1820.pkg to the USB drive. I then boot with the USB drive and I get, press any key for startup options. It then loads to a white screen with a spinning disk. I have tried at the startup options: GraphicsEnabler=No -v Text appears to come on the screen but goes away when the white screen with the spinning cd comes up. I have also trie: NPCI=0x3000 -v -f GraphicsEnabler=No PCIRootUID=1 UseKernelCache=No But same result. curiously enough, if I try only -x then I get to the language screen. Could you please tell me what can I do to eliminate the -x? could it be the graphics that is the problem? Appoligies for not very discriptive screen information, I am visually impaired and so someone had told me the things which I tried to explain on the screen. I've got lion 10.7.5 working, but I would like to try Mountain lion please. Thanks for reading and sorry for the long post. Regards
