Best Answer: Remember OSX only supports a very narrow range of hardware (since Apple decides what motherboards, graphics and CPUs to use in their machines). I don't think your AMD mobo's chipset are supported. Look at the supported drivers list and I don't see anything for the AMD 590 chipset: http://pcwizcomputer.com/ipcosx86/?page_id=96 Worth a try with the Voodoo kernel that was included for AMD systems though, Might still work. - aviatingamateur

Because apple sucks and won't let you use hardware not designed by them you'll have to buy an apple computer and uninstall the OS in order for you to get the iPC to work - Tim
