    UniBeast: Install OS X Mavericks on Any Supported Intel-based PC

    Success on GA-H67MA-UD2H-B3 with ASUS GeForce EN210. At first, the install screen wouldn't come up (display sleep, like many others). I tried like 15 different combinations, eventually leading to the death of my 750GB HDD (constant on/offs). Went SSD this time :) Anyway, these are the flags...

    Hardware video acceleration tests

    Resolved my menu lag. I changed a few things at once (impatiently) so I'm not sure which worked, but now I'm using my EFI String with my definition as Mac Mini and I removed all Geforce Kexts but two as per this post. However, another user posted this semi-guide on how to get en EFI string for...

    App Store Login Error Solution

    Thanks for posting this. I was using an EFI string for my EN210 as well, and like Mak said, it causes ethernet issues. Using EFIStudio, as you have said, does not allow you to select the Geforce 210 - so I was stuck. I could either have: 1) Use Graphics Enabler = Yes instead of the EFI string...

    Hardware video acceleration tests

    nVidia Geforce EN210 Here, running on 10.7.2 Not sure what's going on with my card - but since I rebuilt my box last week, video seems to lag a bit, where previously it was fine (Snow Leopard upgraded to Lion updated to 10.7.2 all utilizing the EFI string). This time I went the Unibeast route...

    Sudden boot0: error - not a 4K sector issue!

    Was tired of spending time trying to troubleshoot/fix the issue, and was thinking about rebuilding the machine from scratch anyway, so I proceeded to use Unibeast to format/resintall. Upon booting from Unibeast on USB, I partitioned my Mac HDD as the instructions for Unibeast instruct. I then...

    Sudden boot0: error - not a 4K sector issue!

    Followed this post to copy the boot1h file from chimera to my HDD. I took out the USB drive, restarted and booted from the HDD and Chimera loaded. I hit Enter, and have now been looking at the apple logo with spinning gear and loading bar (not at all "filled"/loaded) for 20 minutes and...

    Sudden boot0: error - not a 4K sector issue!

    Just downloaded rBoot, burned it, and after running I get to the chimera screen. I select Lion from the list, and then get to a screen that says: EBIOS read error: Device timeout Block 0x51ef78 Sectors 0 This just repeats over and over, with couple of minutes between each. Edit 1: FWIW, my...

    Sudden boot0: error - not a 4K sector issue!

    My system has been working pretty much flawlessly since I built it this summer. Today, I remotely (via web interface) updated Couch Potato. When it didn't come back up after it's reboot, I remoted into my HTPC hackintosh to find some error about code that failed to start (or something - sorry...

    Mac OS X 10.7.2 Update - The Official Thread (Desktops)

    I have this board, and was able to successfully update, though I did have issues with sound. See my post on page 50 for my issues and a link to a thread that resolved them. Good luck!

    Got audio to work 889 on Gigabyte GA-Z68X-UD3H-B3

    Came to to let people know I was having audio trouble after updating from 10.7.1 to 10.7.2. This thread helped fix the problem, although the Kext Utility posted in this thread did not work for me - I googled "Kext Utility" and ended up downloading "Kext Utility 2" for Lion. Deleted all my...

    Mac OS X 10.7.2 Update - The Official Thread (Desktops)

    This is officially driving me bat-**** crazy. This Hackintosh (or CustoMac, as it were) is my HTPC - without it, I am dead in the water (entertainment wise!). I have a feeling the proper Kext's aren't being installed with Multibeast 4.0.3. How can I manually install AppleHDA Rollback? And I...

    Mac OS X 10.7.2 Update - The Official Thread (Desktops)

    From 10.7.1 to 10.7.2 via combo update, rebooted, now no sound (no output device in System Pref). Came here, read that I was suppose run multibeast to install the rollback kext before rebooted. Tried anyway, unsuccessfully, some 6 times now - each run takes significantly longer to run, too -...

    Store media on ReadyNAS or on HTPC?

    Yes, looked into it - very cool tech, but ended up just setting up the NAS in my media center in the living room with the 2x2TBs to storage my content. Then HTPC has 2x500GB drives, one for Mac OSX and one for Windows (and Ubuntu eventually). Almost never use windows, though. Essentially only...

    Plex Hackintosh HTPC Project

    Firstly, I'd refer you to josephbphillips post here: http://tonymacx86.com/viewtopic.php?f=87&t=17578&start=40 - he sounds like he got it working. If that doesn't work, then play with the settings a bit in Plex. Preferences > System> Audio in Plex. Play with the Sound Output section and see...

    i7-960 or i7-2600

    FWIW, my 2011 Macbook Pro (i7 2.3Ghz Sandy Bridge) blows my work machine out of the water - it's a i7-870 @ 2.93GHz. Both have the same amount of RAM running Windows 7 64 bit in both tests. I chalk it up to Newer design architecture ;) I'd go 1155 socket Sandy Bridge. :thumbup:
