Gigabyte Brix GB-BXi3H-4010 FAILURE: black screen

[germ65]

Updated BIOS to F5. Changed BIOS option Advanced>CFG lock>Disabled, otherwise "optimized defaults"
Prepared USB stick as per guide, 10.9.4.
I see apple logo, but after it finished loading, black screen.

Verbose output here:


Using MiniDisplayPort with VGA adaptor into old 1024x768 montor.

Suggestions welcome. Should I try Clover?

No don't use that use GraphicsEnabler=Yes IGPEnabler=Yes and ditch the VGA monitor Mac OS X supports only dvi hdmi and mini display ports for monitor connections

Nope, does not work.

No luck.

I am using the mini display port output with a converter. Is there a limitation on the supported resolution i OS X? Is 1024x768 too small?

The only other monitor I have right now is an old Apple Cinema Display with the converter for DVI.

Meanwhile I have also run memtest and checked that RAM is OK.

It's a deadbeef error - Boot with -v -x maxmem=4096

Good Luck

i don't understand the term "deadbeef error"...

i already tried a lot of boot options, including the one you suggest. Same error happens.

The adapter is not going to help you ditch the whole using a VGA monitor altogether with or without an adapter so we can rule out your monitor connection using a VGA monitor can cause some really weird things to happen in the OS so just ditch trying to use it
