Hi again.

I build this exact build.

Processor: Intel Core i7-930 2.80GHz
CPU Fan: Scythe Mugen 2 CPU Cooler
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD5
Power Supply: Corsair CMPSU-650HX 650w
RAM: G.Skill 3 x 2GB 4GB ECO DDR3 Kit 1600Mhz PC3-12800 CL7
DVD Drive: SONY DVD RW DRU-870S
Case: Coolermaster

And i am up and running.
Thanks to iboot supportet and multibeast.

I have bluetooth. wifi, and my firewire metric halo sound card working.
The only thing that doesn't work properly is graphics.
I am using an extra i had in my old macpro. Nvidia 7300.
and it can only display 1024 x 768.
Is there a solution to this, or would i be better of buying a better one.

A few other q's.
Is it safe to use sata drives i was using in my old mac....
I have a vast amount of samples and music relatet stuff.....

Thanks to all for your help.
Think its time for a donation.

Just got this warning, when trying to install Logic,,,

• Logic Studio Installer requires that your system have a Quartz Extreme capable video card.
• Logic Studio Installer recommends that your system have 64 MB of VRAM; this system has only 0 MB of VRAM.

Anybody knows what to do, i take it's graphics relatet.

Another small problem i have observed is, airport doesn't connect automatically.
Anbody else noticing that.
My airtport is the homemade solution, but works great once it'd connectet.
