    Unibeast quit unexpectedly

    I'm getting this too... The UniBeast progress bar gets most of the way done in making the bootable USB drive, when suddenly, it quits unexpectedly. I've attache the 'Problem details and system configuration'.

    Best way to run a VM of windows on my Hackintosh

    Trying to play Valve's games on Mac OS is a horrifying experience. The mouse physics is the worst thing, but performance sucks too. I'd recommend just running Windows off a spare HDD. Vmware Fusion is about the best you'll get for 3D support in a VM. And even that's pretty poor for gaming. You...

    P7P55D DSDT EDITING - So Far...

    I've been using Beelzebobo's 2003 DSDT and it works perferctly! :) The new MultiBeast's a bit confusing though. I had thought it was the DSDT's fault when my system wouldn't boot, but it was wrong settings from MultiBeast. I do with that thing had better documentation... These DSDTs really...

    P7P55D DSDT EDITING - So Far...

    Awesome! *hug* Btw, I know they advise against it, but downgrading BIOS versions is safe, right? I mean, you're just overwriting the whole thing in its entirety, so downgrading shouldn't be any different from upgrading... right? (you know, just in case this whole 2003 things turns out to be no...

    What Desktop Hardware Do You Want Better Supported?

    Supporting a good range of Asus motherboards would be very nice indeed. It'd be nice if MultiBeast would advise you about what the many options do, and possibly even tick boxes for you based on what hardware it detects you're using. It can be hard to know what to do with MultiBeast sometimes...

    P7P55D DSDT EDITING - So Far...

    beelzebozo, I tried your DSDT and it broke my installation. To install it, I put the DSDT on my desktop and ran MultiBeast. I checked the UserDSDT box and the System Utilities box, and let the install run. When I rebooted, I the OS didn't load at all. The bootloader screen showed up, but the...

    P7P55D DSDT EDITING - So Far...

    Beelzebobo, I'll test your DSDT as soon as I get the chance to do so. I know you're aware of the DSDT I linked to, what with your comments on the page. Does this DSDT not work for you? If it does, what is your new one trying to accomplish which is different? Is yours based on the one I used...

    P7P55D DSDT EDITING - So Far...

    Since my last post, I've re-installed Mac OS on my rig. I used the latest iBoot and MultiBeast versions. I didn't use the EasyBeast option this time, though; I used a DSDT. This is the one I used: http://www.kexts.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=672 It works perfectly. *Everything* works...

    P7P55D DSDT EDITING - So Far...

    I must admit it's been a little while since I had Mac OS installed on this build. So here goes, from memory... I never got power saving to work, if by power saving you mean SpeedStep. If, however, you mean the system sleeps itself after being left for a while, then yeah, that worked ok. I'm...

    P7P55D DSDT EDITING - So Far...

    I have a P7P55D. I've just noticed this thread for the first time. What advantages does this DSDT bring over using EasyBeast? Does it enable proper CPU power management (i.e. SpeedStep)? That was the only thing which I never managed to get working on my P7P55D. And I never had a DSDT. Sleep and...

    Web Dev on Hackintosh?

    I recently attempted to use Dreamweaver CS5 for mac. I've used CS3 and 4 on Windows before, and they were fine. A little bloated, but they worked OK. CS5 on mac is an absolute disaster! It's *so* prone to crashing. It fails to recognise my non-QWERTY keyboard layout for keyboard shortcuts. It...

    Unable to get P7P55D + i5-750 + 5770 system to work :'(

    Yeah, I'm using 2.1.4. I suppose I should download it again... Macman, you don't happen to have any idea how I might get CPU Power Management (with SpeedStep) working, do you? Without NullCPUPowerManagement installed, the system won't boot. But... surely I don't *have* to have that, do I?

    Unable to get P7P55D + i5-750 + 5770 system to work :'(

    So has anyone else experienced this bug? It definitely happens. If I install the Kexts "fakesmc" and "EvOreboot" from the Non-DSDT Systems folder, it will install the other two as well, even though I haven't selected them. Those other two being: LegacyAppleRTC and NullCPUPowerManagement. Is...

    Unable to get P7P55D + i5-750 + 5770 system to work :'(

    I've found a pretty bad bug in MultiBeast, and I've reproduced it a couple of times. It seems to install NullCpuPowerManagement.kext, regardless of whether I select it, if I install other items in its category. I had got my system to what I thought was a fully working state, with sleep and...
