Hello Everyone,
Thank you all for your replies and help during my process. I have come back to give you all an update on my first hackintosh experience.
First I solved my install issues by first running a full myfix on my USB pen drive. I then booted the machine with both CPUS=1 and PciRoot=0?? and this solved both the issue with it hanging at begin PCI Configuration and then subsequently the all black screen issue.
After my first install things were running terribly, the UI was slow and sluggish and my mouse was ridiculous in that you had to physically swipe multiple times to get it to move inches and sometimes it would "jet" across the screen.
I believe I solved this by manually copying my specific "extras" folder over, when done through the myhack gui it did not install nearly the same folder contents as the original folder. once a new installation was attempted it fired through and kext's seemed to be installed properly. I ran EDP from ML and took its recommended settings for my model and everything seemed to work fine including sleep (I can't remember if I had to hack this afterwards) however it was slow to shutdown (seems there might be a solution for me in a previous post now) and the hibernation didn't work on the win 7 side (annoying, but mildly tolerable). What finally killed it was a boot:0 error and I couldn't seem to get that fixed so I blew away the hd and installed Windows 7 standalone *sigh*
It WAS an adventure and I don't regret doing it, if for nothing other than the experience. Thanks everyone for helping support another community member!
