Looks like the GTX 780 is working with this graphics driver everyone!

I'm having freezes in Aperture on 10.8.2 due to GPU crashes on my MSI 660ti OC, I think I might update to the Nvidia 10.8.2 drivers and see if that fixes my problem.

Does this bug also occur on GTX650 ?

Thanks for all the info !

I have tried both of my GTX480 and GTX580

Both got stuck at high power mode with dual monitor connected.

If I unplug one, the mode switch to low power mode right away.

Hi, Driver installed as confirmed by CUDA panel "GPU Driver Version: 8.14.11 (313.01.01f03)" but I cannot start NVIDIA Driver Manager which is unable to open. Very strange. I have a GeForce GTX 460 SE on a Customac Pro 4,1 with ML.
No more hangs anyway
bye

EVGA GTX670 FTW. Doesn't seem to work. Lets me select web drivers but I don't see any sign of a change (no reboot prompt, no display flash). Benchmarks exactly the same as before. After a reboot default driver selected again.

AHA! In order to flag the alternate drivers on a CustoMac, you must add the flag manually to the chameleon.org.Boot.plist. I'd guess the new pref pane only adds it to your "Mac" com.apple.Boot.plist, which is in a different location, and not used on a CustoMac. For Chimera bootloader:

1. Open Finder
2. Navigate to /Extra/org.chameleon.Boot.plist
3. Open in TextEdit
4. Add nvda_drv=1 to Kernel Flags or add a new key as shown:

Example Usage:

<key>Kernel Flags</key>
<string>darkwake=0 nvda_drv=1</string>

or add a new key

<key>nvda_drv</key>
<string>1</string>

5. Save and reboot

You should be on the new NVIDIA drivers.

Thanks kawayuppie

Followed these instructions.
Now my hackintosh will only boot in safe mode.

I've edited the plist to remove tonymacx86's additions - but have experienced no change and can still only boot in safe mode. System worked fine before modifying the preferences.

The Nvidia driver manager won't load in safe mode for an uninstall. I've tried manually removing the drivers from the the extensions folder, but experienced no change. I've repaired permissions multiple times.

Any ideas on how to return my system to it's previous state without a reinstall of the the operating system?
