By the way, it took me an hour to copy all that onto a piece of paper, check it over and then type it into here :-s

I really want to be able to dual boot Mac OS X and Windows 7 so please help!

Attempting to install macOS on non-Apple hardware, known as Hackintosh, can be quite challenging due to compatibility issues and the need for custom drivers. The error message you provided indicates a kernel panic during the installation process. Here are a few things you can try to resolve this issue: 1. Check Hardware Compatibility: Ensure that your hardware is compatible with macOS. Hackintosh installations often require specific components to work properly. 2. Use a Different Hackintosh Distribution: Kalyway is an older Hackintosh distribution. You might have better luck with a more recent distribution like Niresh or iAtkos. 3. Modify Boot Parameters: During the installation process, you can try different boot parameters to see if any specific settings help avoid the kernel panic. Common boot flags for macOS installation include "GraphicsEnabler=No," "npci=0x2000," "npci=0x3000," and "cpus=1." 4. Check BIOS Settings: Ensure that your BIOS settings are correctly configured for Hackintosh installation. Settings like SATA mode (AHCI), HPET, and virtualization should be adjusted as needed. 5. Verify Installation Media: Make sure that the Kalyway ISO you downloaded is not corrupted. Try redownloading it or using a different source to create your installation USB. 6. Update macOS Version: If possible, try a newer version of macOS, as older versions might have compatibility issues with newer hardware. Please note that installing macOS on non-Apple hardware is a complex process that may require multiple attempts and adjustments. It's essential to have backups of your data and be prepared for potential issues during the installation process. If you continue to encounter issues, feel free to provide more details about your hardware setup, and we can explore further troubleshooting steps.
