Disclaimer: this helped but did not permanently fix my issues. It appears that many factors contribute. I think I finally fixed (gave up) the issue by getting a new video card: viewtopic.php?f=221&t=57465
Who
If you are using Intel HD 3000 integrated graphics and have freezes, artifacts, or other issues.
Short Version
Download and install FakeSMC 4.2 (will need to register at projectosx.com)
http://www.projectosx.com/forum/index.p ... topic=1643
How
Download KextBeast
viewforum.php?f=125
Put the new FakeSMC.kext on the desktop and run KextBeast to install it.
Long Version
You can also install the following using KextBeast if you want to be able to monitor hardware sensors like fan speed, CPU temperature, etc.:
ACPISensors.kext
IntelCPUMonitor.kext
ITEIT87x.kext
Use the included HW Monitor app in the FakeSMC download. It adds a menu that lets you monitor the hardware.
This has been confirmed to work using MacPro 3,1 and MacMini 5,1 SMBIOS profiles, which you can install using Multibeast. It will probably also work with iMac and MacBook Pro SMBIOS.
You should probably go into BIOS and set your VRAM to the maximum, most likely 480 MB.
You can have KernelCache enabled or not in the SMBIOS. It shouldn't matter.
SMCping, Fan Control, and other work arounds should not be needed with this.
