Hi What material is this part of the card made of? http://imgur.com/ITxaq4a Also, how difficult would it be to weld a new piece of metal onto the end? I took a dremel tool to it and messed it up. I want a do-over. Thanks bm

Thanks! Appreciate ya papa bless

Hi all I'm trying to figure out how I can have a system with both a UEFI Windows SSD, AND a UEFI OSX SSD, and have the Clover bootloader allow me to choose between the two when I boot up. I also want to avoid cross-contamination between the two installations. I think Windows MIGHT be adding...

Accidentally shut off the power to my PC on the breaker in my apartment. Ever since then have been getting random freezes. Do you think this is a coincidence? Or related? When the freezes occur, nothing is shown in the console log. I'm thinking it could be RAM-related as you mentioned. I notice...

Thank you! If I'm able to get all this stuff working and stable (say, for a month or more) I may consider putting together a guide on here to give back a little. Thanks

Also, out of pure curiosity, what's your day job? Or are you a student?

Thank you so much. Also, another thing to mention about the freeze issue, it seemed to happen very soon after sleep. Not sure if that changes anything. Also, great links, I will definitely check them out and read them thoroughly. Can you recommend a place to start in terms of adding the...

Ok. Hint taken. Can you at least point me in the right direction to figure this out? I know you don't have to do anything for me. I don't want to come across as entitled. I won't push the issue any further. Thanks for all your help

Which is why we need your guidance sir! I never considered that. You may be right. Do you still use XMP profile 1? Oh yeah, also, when it has happened, I checked the Console for a log message that may provide some sort of clue and nothing was found. So to me that means hardware, and RAM does...

Hi. Did you ever end up switching over to Clover for your main drives? Also, I'd REALLY appreciate it if you put together an updated guide for Yosemite (for either Clover or Chimera, whichever you prefer). You seem to have had a lot of success in getting a stable system up and running. My...

I was wondering if you made any special adjustments to your BIOS configuration, other than: Load optimized defaults Disable on-board graphics Disable wake on lan Disable onboard ethernet I noticed that merely using optimized defaults (with onboard graphics and wake on lan disabled) negated the...

Try setting "maxmem=" to half your memory. 4096 if you have 8gb (8192 if you have 16gb). Also try adding -no-zp and booting in safe mode (-x)

Thanks for your help. I appreciate it! :headbang::thumbup:

Not issues installing it, issues as a result of installing it. As in, kernel panics, etc. I'm concerned because I've flashed somewhat out of order: f7 to f8 to f8m <backwards then to f10b. Or should I not be concerned and leave it be? Should I be concerned that I encountered the "Couldn't...

Done. Yikes. What differences? By the way, did you have any issues when you updated to f10b? Is there a way to flash our BIOS back to factory version? If so I haven't found it yet. Well, I'm more concerned that I've never had to use them before. The only bootflags I've ever needed for the...
