SSD drive not booting in 2006 Macbook

raytaxi · 2012-08-09 22:08:21

Have a 128gb OZC ssd drive and done a clean install of snow leopard but the drive will not boot. It will boot from the install disc's and runs fine but just have a grey screen when trying to boot direct from ssd, its a white late 2006 macbook 2.1. Have I missed something on the install or anyone ideas to try ? Thanks
