  1. Find and use your Vista Boot disc or use System Restore, it should be F11 when the Compaq screen pops up. If not, use your Vista Boot disc and use the option to fix startup problems, and there should be an option to repair the bootloader. once the bootloader is fixed and Vista boots again, Download and install EasyBCD here http://neosmart.net/dl.php?id=1 and then go to the add/remove entries menu and add OSX to the bootloader. Then restart your compter and try running leopard. If it works, you've succeeded, if not, you will have to reinstall OSX and make sure you choose not to overwrite the bootloader.


  2. Mac OSX is only compatible with certain hardware. Are you trying to build a hackintosh with a hacked version of OSX or what? I am really doubting you would be able to run OSX on an HP Compaq...

    You probably overwrote your Vista system files trying to install OSX.
