    Half black screen won't boot (onboard HD4000)

    Sorry, I only read the first sentence (in the notification email) and didn't realize you had typed more. I haven't booted my hackintosh again yet, will see if I still have the same issue on the next boot.

    Half black screen won't boot (onboard HD4000)

    Have you tried unplugging the screen from the motherboard, and then plugging it back in? That seemed to help last time with me (but only tested once, not sure if this always fixes it, and still no idea on what causes it).

    Half black screen won't boot (onboard HD4000)

    This is not turning out to be the smooth installation I had hoped for when I bought the recommended parts from the Guide... Broken motherboard cost me a day, then I had an incompatible installation USB stick, then there was something with my fonts (see other topic), and now this. It worked...

    Official HD 4000 Support

    Weirdest problem 'fi' in some text disappears

    Just successfully installed 10.8 on my first hackintosh ever, and after some initial problems (dead motherboard and me trying to figure out why nothing would power on, and a USB drive with the installer files that wouldn't boot - needed different USB drive) it seems to be working. Hooray...

    Can't install Mountain Lion, GA-B75M-D3P

    Here is part of my BIOS settings. When I try to Install Mountain Lion OSX 10.8 and select Boot Verbose I get a few very fast lines of code - about half a screen - and then it automatically reboots so I can't read what it's complaining about (I'll try to film it if no one spots a problem with...
