the one you mentioned for Mavericks, will it upgrade to later OSX ok also?
I will definitely check out all the PSU requirements, thanks for the heads up.
How many total pixels you think these cards can support out of one card? I am thinking about 3 DVI monitors at 1920x1200 and then possibly...
I should add also that in the future when I build a bigger system, I intend to build one of the blessed recommended systems from this site.. I just want to try to get a new video card sooner to use with my old system...and keep using it with the new system. Trying to decide whether to buy some...
will that card work on mavericks without special web drivers? I'm pretty committed to staying on Mavericks for quite a while, but that could change. I don't want to move past here without a retina display, heard to many bad things and Mavericks is running strong on my MBP too.
4 displays out...
I am currently running an older hackintosh system, and its fine for now...I intend to build a nicer system maybe next year, but for now I'd like to upgrade the video card on this box to get 3 displays,...one of them HDMI.
Currently its a GA-P35-DS4 mobo and NVIDIA GeForce 8600 display...
final comment about UUID, I think its working ok out of the box. Found lots of confusing info on the net about it, but basically what it looks to me now:
1 - Chimera 2.0.1 looks at the actual BIOS to try to obtain a so called "systemid", which is a valid UUID number. If it can't find one, it...
It seems that UUID handling has gone through a lot of changes in Chameleon over the past few years and I'm having a hard time figuring out what is the current best approach to ensure a unique and un-changing hardware UUID for my system so that when I reg software that uses UUID, the license will...
I have no plans to use ML ever.
I got my HD alias fixed by essentially moving all the data to another drive and deleting the partition. Something about the partition itself was confused. I have no idea what. it was used before with 10.5. Anyway fixed now.
I used chameleon Wizard to create...
oh yea thanks for that.
So remaining tasks for me are:
1 - I can't seem to get this second HD's desktop icon to work. I have no idea why, or how to fix it.
2 - Still need to resolve the serial and UUID
3 - open questions about sleep, speed stepping and dual dvi monitors, but I will save...
It clears up the icons, it does not fix system profiler. But that is not a large issue I guess.
I will look into that.
I'm not sure what you're suggesting this for?
interesting. So I actually extracted JMicron36xSATA.kext from Multibeast 2.x using pacifist, and it kind of works, it changes the icons, but system profiler still shows them as "unknown" controllers. not that big of a deal.
But it sounds like I should get rid of that kext and use the 3rd...
Thanks again totenkofp!!
thanks for that read, I learned something. I used Maldon's auto patcher before, which appears to more or less automate that procedure if I am understanding correctly along with a few patches, including the 889A patch, I guess my DSDT should already be good to go...
totenkopf, thanks for this info! Couple more questions related to those:
ok got it. Question, it says in Multibeast that this depends on having a modified DSDT. The only DSDT I have is one that I generated using auto DSDT patcher. Is that sufficient for this?
So in Multibeast I found a...
is NVEnabler really required? I have the same 256MB card as you and after running multibeast, which turned on chimera graphics enabler, I got 1920x1200 resolution. What I'm not sure about is if I'm getting full acceleration this way or not. What does NVEnabler do and which is preferred way to...
Does anyone know what is the difference between P35 and EP35? Are the DSDT's compatible with each other. I'm trying to install Snow Leopard, but hoping that much of the mobo specific information is relatively the same as what you had to go through here.
Today I installed snow leopard onto GA-P35-DS4 using iBoot and Multibeast. It was pretty painless process, but its not working as good as the old 10.5 install I have on the same machine. I was hoping anyone with experience on this mobo can help me sort out a few kext issues to get it working...
