I also had to disable Wake On Lan to prevent the system to reboot after shutdown. This should really be in the guide...

Install completed successfully although I had to fix the boot 0 error: http://www.tonymacx86.com/25-boot0-error-official-guide.html Need to keep testing... but so far so good

Ok, DVI to DVI did the trick and the install is going on. Hopefully I will be back to report success later on :-)

Just looking at this thread http://www.tonymacx86.com/mavericks-desktop-support/115427-help-haswell-unibeast-mavericks-error.html Could it be that the issue is that I am connecting to a monitor using a DVI (PC) to VGA (Monitor) cable? Will DVI to DVI fix the problem?

Ok, using npci=0x3000 or -v npci-0x3000 just seems to hang instead of crash. Not sure thats better... I have also tried adding the PCIRootUID=1 and GraphicsEnabler=No. Not sure what to do next, looking through the messages I see a couple of backtrace and then it hangs with "media is not...

The screen I am using is 1680X1050 so I tried that, but it still goes funky as in the picture I attached previously and stops. I set the BIOS as per Tony's post http://www.tonymacx86.com/golden-builds/109953-customac-mini-2013-ga-h87n-wifi-core-i3-4340-intel-hd-4600-a.html Any ideas what...

Hi Adrian, Thanks. I have disabled that Vt-d but I will try setting the resolution tonight and see if that helps move forward in the install

Hi There, I am working on my second build and Mavericks install is not coming up. I am hoping someone can suggest something. Build thread: http://www.tonymacx86.com/buying-advice/120723-2nd-build-advice-small-quiet-i5-build.html Part list: CPU: Intel Core i5-4440 3.1GHz Quad-Core...

Thanks for the advice Iw ill check that cooler but I think since it is included I'll try the stock cooler first then change it if it is noisy. There's a video of it on youtube that seems to show that its virtually silent unless you are hammering the CPU. I suspect with my wife usage pattern it...

Thanks Adrian, I thought about using the standard cooler to keep budget low, but yes maybe I should consider other options. How much noise difference do you think a low profile cooler would do over standard cooler?

Hi Guys, I am about to buy the components for my seconds build, the idea is to get a quiet/almost silent small PC for SO. Small form factor, low power and low noise are key objectives. I picked from the recommended builds so it should be pretty straight forward but would be great if you...

Update: I sent all the components to the shop (scan.co.uk) and they claim to have tested it and found no fault. I actually don't think they have tested properly. In any case, I am now paying about £70 costs to get everything back and test myself. :oops: :banghead: Anyways, one thing they...

Thanks Karacho I will try that and report back. I also got in touch with the shop to see what they can do, they also suspect the PSU so I might have to RMA that and wait until it comes back.

Thanks Karacho, I actually now think this is a HW problem wince I have the same problem when running on Windows 7. OSX also works fine without any errors or kernel panics until the computer shuts so it looks to hardware. I think it's the PSU but I am trying to rule out everything else ...
