I have been trying to replace my aging Mac Mini media server with a more modern machine for awhile. I settled on the GA-Z87N-WIFI board and an i5 4690 processor, because that MoBo was in the recommend build section. I built the machine up, and after fighting the "Boot 0" issue and some other...

When I was trying to fix some problems I was having, I installed Clover over my Chimera install. Big mistake. I could never get it to boot, and I finally gave up and tried to go back to Chimera. That took a LONG time to figure out, but I finally got my machine to the point where I can boot...

I "upgraded" my rock-solid Mavericks installation to Yosemite, and have been having all kinds of issues. Most of them are minor - I can live without sound after sleep, and I can ignore the "USB Overcurrent" warnings, but the last issue is going to drive me crazy: On a fresh boot, Parallels...

I currently have a Dell 2713HM running at 2560x1440 resolution being driven off of the DVI-DL port of the card. I have another 1600x1200 monitor being driven off of HDMI. I would like to replace the 1600x1200 monitor with another 2560x1440 monitor, but I can't find out anywhere if this card can...

Just thought I'd post what I did to get this new motherboard mostly working. I "upgraded" from the GA-Z68X-UD5 to the GA-Z77X-UD5 because I read that it supported sleep better. It does, but there are a few issues that need to be addressed. First of all, I didn't want to do a clean install, so I...

I updated the BIOS on my GA-Z68X-UD5-B3-F8 to F9 and re-ran Multibeast to install the newest DSDT, and now my machine won't power down or sleep. If I choose "Shut Down", the system goes through all the motions, but the machine never powers off. If I choose Sleep, it acts like it's going to go to...
