I think what he meant was that you can't upgrade the SSD when you first buy. Why should you have to discard a 256GB drive and think of another use for it to change it to a 512GB one?

This was driving me crazy for ages. A BIG Thank you for the solution.

Really? I think everybody should wear polkadot undies.

Hello all, I have 3 physical disks in my hack. 1= Yosemite 2= Windows 7 3= Windows 8.1 With the menu installed with Multibeast the disks show up correctly. The problem is, if I choose Windows 8.1 Windows 7 loads. If I set the boot order in the BIOS to 1,3,2 then Windows 8.1 loads as the second...

This is a really old poll. SInce I last voted I bought a MBP, but can't put it in, since I "already voted" :D

While nobody doubts Toleda's knowledge of making HDMI sound work for many motherboards, for me his solutions are just a puzzle. I tried several times, but somehow they never seem to work. There are too many "ifs, buts and maybe-s" for me to figure it out. At the end I usually just restore from...

NetGear D6300, works well. Initially had a problem with it for a couple of weeks, not being able to access the setup functions through the browser. I had to reset it and set it up from scratch every time. At the end the technical support team at Netgear advised me to take it back to the...

By running the Gigabyte auto tuneup utility that comes with the motherboard (runs on Windows only:thumbdown:) you can have a Geekbench score of around 14,000 and no headaches. Dead solid performance afterwards.

Thank you for this comment. Tony does say this in his instructions, 3. Remove /System/Library/Extensions/GenericUSBXHCI.kext if present but after installing Yosemite it appears again. My USB ports were so flaky I almost gave up on the whole thing. After booting I had to try all USB ports for...

I have been trying to upgrade Mavericks to Yosemite with partial success after what seemed interminable failures. 1. Of the 8 USB ports I have, only 3 USB3 ports work on the motherboard and none of the USB2. That's what threw me when I couldn't use the keyboard and the mouse. Just keep trying...

The same thing hit me afterwards and I did just that. Still, no dice. The whole thing is still so fresh that there is not much information to research. That's why I'll try a bit later.

So far the updating hasn't been very pleasant or successful. As always, I made a bootable backup and booted from it to make sure it's OK (I ALWAYS do this) Then made the thumbdrive with Yosemite which booted OK. After a 18 minute installation the disk would boot, but there is no USB, so no...

I bet you won't be able to tell the difference other than reading the specs.:D

If you always walk in the shadows you'll never enjoy the sun.

Looks good, a new class of computer: SubDesk instead of DeskTop :D

I would have thought if the BIOS is rendered unusable by a mistake in updating the backup bios would come into play. I had an occasion for this, when for some reason or other the BIOS became faulty. After several attempts at re-booting the message said that the BIOS is being copied from the...

Just because you're from Belgium there is no need to apologize for your English :thumbup:

Article: Update Your Mavericks App to 10.9.2 You run Multibeast again to install the sound drivers and magically they'll work again.

Article: Update Your Mavericks App to 10.9.2 The full install is 5+ GB, the Combo Update is under 1GB. Before the slipstreaming of the OS we used to update with the Combo Update and that's how I did it this time too. Works fine.

Read Toleda's solutions. The one that worked for me is dead simple: Just change the system definition to MacPro3,1 in smbios.plist. The MacMini6,1 definition is causing the loud popping sound.
