    So, because it is unused. I am trying to install Mac OS X on here. The install is successful using iATKOS. However, when launching Mac, it flashes the boot screen for literally a second then restarts. -V doesn't work. Busratio=18 doesn't work. What can i do?

    Unfortunately, installing OSX on non-Apple hardware is prohibited in Apple's EULA, and until then, such discussion is not permitted on NBR. Thread locked.
