    Out of ideas, mavericks installs then hangs during boot unless in safe mode.

    [SOLVED] Out of ideas, mavericks installs then hangs during boot unless in safe mode. Hello, I did a little research and due to the way the bios on this specific model of card (the xfx 1gb Radeon HD 5770 model xfx577aznfc5) MacOSX doesn't play nice with it. It would recognize it as an ATI...

    I'm using hdmi on one monitor and dvi on a second monitor. i've tried both singularly with no differences. for the while, i'm only using the hdmi one, at least until this is solved or the card is replaced.

    Out of ideas, mavericks installs then hangs during boot unless in safe mode.

    So I reverted all of my changes back to vanilla and changed the boot.plist to say what you recommended. The computer boots and even gets to login. Just without graphics, Text all the way. It stops at [AGPM Controller] unknownPlatform. I know it's at the login screen because I can type my...

    I've tried both and leaving it out entirely. It doesn't seem to make a difference. I'm stuck at 1024x768 on a 29" monitor... ugly. I know it's a RPITA to get going, that's why I totally stopped trying to get the stupid thing to work back in 10.7.5. I was hoping that something would have...

    An update. I stayed up all night working on it and have gotten it to boot to the desktop with out using safe mode. I did a fresh install and concentrated entirely on getting the graphics to work. I tried various kexts from various sources always restoring what was changed if it didn't work...

    [SOLVED] Out of ideas, mavericks installs then hangs during boot unless in safe mode. Greetings, First. Let me thank you for taking the time to click this post. The "tl:dr" version of this is I've installed mavericks 10.9.4 using the unibeast and multibeast. It boots fine so long as I boot...
