Can you tell us what kind of error you are having? It difficult for us to assist without knowing what kind of problems you are seeing.

For Solaris 10 compatibility check on an x86 try this tool :

Just as an aside I managed to install Solaris 10 on a Toshiba Satellite A30 without issues - you do need to give us more information as reborg indicates otherwise we cannot assist.
