They have been reformatted according to instructions, but I noticed something at the bottom of Disk Utility that said SMART system not supported on the harddrive and I read elsewhere that SMART needs to be enabled in the BIOS. They are both pretty old, so I don't know if that makes a difference, or if I need to use an actual flash drive for some reason (USB HDD should work right?). All I have are external HDDs with 60 and 120 GBs respectively. Also are there any specifications for the USB drive that you need to use to make the boot disk? It says to use a pen drive with 8 GB or more. I already have Windows 7 installed on the HDD, could that be blocking it somehow? Do I need to install it on a completely unused hard drive? I made a partition with around 150 GB on it. There are only one or two recommended BIOS settings I don't have access to, such as the 64-bit graphic something or other. I also enabled Intel Virtual Technology (should be enabled, right?). It allows for me to change to AHCI, enable Legacy USB, and change the boot order. It's InsydeH20 3.5, which I believe is the latest one. Building a CustoMac Hackintosh: Buyer's Guide
