Okay, when I get this thing working, it's a beast. It doesn't just run, it flies. Unfortunately, I seem to be in a situation where over time, things start… happening. Usually the first symptom is Safari. It'll start misbehaving, acting buggy, randomly freeze (constantly having to "force reload"...

Lads and lasses, I'm not a happy camper right now. I've been wanting an iPad for a while now, but more interested in the Mini than the full sized version. And like everyone, was very disappointed by the specs of that Mini, so decided to wait for the retina flavour. So I waited. And...

Didn't really want to put this into buying advice, since at the moment I'm not set on what I want to do, but probably the best place for it... So my wife and I (who am I kidding, she's had nothing to do with it!) are renovating our downstairs room to serve as a second living room/man cave...

Didn't really want to put this into buying advice, since at the moment I'm not set on what I want to do... So my wife and I (who am I kidding, she's had nothing to do with it!) are renovating our downstairs room to serve as a second living room/man cave. Recently invested in an audio system...

Been having NOTHING but issues the past couple of weeks, and tired (so tired!) of scrapping everything and reinstalling from scratch, lasting a day or two, before issues arising once more. (different every time!) Fresh install of Mountain Lion 10.8.2 (10.8.3 gives me NOTHING but issues). Worked...

Well, I went and cocked things up now. My Hack was running 10.8.2, but would occasionally freeze requiring a hard restart (and 2-3 subsequent restarts after the grey boot progress bar, and the hack would then shut itself down). Also had some clutter on there, speed had decreased a bit, so...

Ever since upgrading to Mountain Lion, I've been having some odd keyboard behaviour. I'm using the Logitech "Wave" keyboard, along with their Performance MX mouse, which I never had an issue with in Lion, but with the new OS I'll get the occasional "bonk" alert noise as if a key is being...

Hiya folks, Over the holidays, Santa brought me a plethora of Amazon gift cards, and I decided to use 'em to upgrade the bejesus out of my hackintosh, which was behaving slowly. (In reality, all I needed was a fresh install, since the hardware was fine, but... upgraditis is a terrible...

Howdy folks! Been quite a few months since I got a chance to stop by and say hello, and am surprised at the plethora of new options. And those options have me thinking of upgrading. Currently my build is centered around an i7 2600k overclocked to 4.3ghz, a Gigabyte GA-Z68XP-UD3 motherboard...

Well, everything on the Mac side was working fine, apart from the occasional kernel panic. But when I went through the ringer installing Windows 7, and getting the audio to work, it seems to have knocked out all audio on the Mac side. I've tried firing up Multibeast and reinstalling the audio...

So now that I have my hack running both Lion and Windows 7, I was wondering... anyone know of a way to automatically hide the Windows drives from appearing when I boot into Lion? I know this isn't a hack related question, nor is it ruining my day... but with the five drives inside the machine...

Quick question... once I've got Chimera installed, and dual booting between Lion and Windows 7, is the logo on the Chimera boot screen replaceable? I've noticed in the how-to article on the blog that someone plopped their own one in there, but not sure if that was the developer or not...

Well, I was all ready to pull the trigger on a motherboard for my Hackintosh. In fact, I already have - and a GA-Z68XP-UD3 is on the way from Amazon, based on the CustoMac recommendations. But I've read thread after thread now about the Z68 having issues with sleep, Firewire, and USB 3 (which...

Howdy all! I've been convinced. I'm currently using a four year old iMac 24" for work, and it's time to upgrade, and the thought of having a fully functional peecee for a spot of gaming, along with an extremely loaded Mac sounds perfect. I'll basically be copying the CustoMac Pro build...
