So, a bit of an update on this...I got it to work on the UEFI board by swapping out my graphics card. Apparently, it did not like the specific combination of pure UEFI video card and a legacy storage card. By swapping out the graphics card (AMD) with an Nvidia GT 730, I was able to get the 2720...

Bit of an old thread here, but I wanted to share the knowledge: LSI Logic 20320/21320 cards are plug-and-play with OSX. I just installed one in my Mojave hackintosh, and it saw it immediately, no modifications necessary. You want to make sure you get the LSI version. There's also a Dell version...

I actually did find another way to make the SIL3512 work. not sure if rules allow to link to a kext on another site or not, but i added the device ID (v1.3 is 0x65121095, versus 0x35121095 for older drivers) and it showed up. ive copied about 300GB onto the attached drive so far without issue.

Sorry, no. Ive only had a chance to pick up one card, an older SIL3512-based card, but it did not work due to there being a newer hardware revision that is not compatible with the firmware flashes I found online. Im going to look into some Marvell-based cards and see if I can turn up something a...

seems like we're definitely in a very specific minority here... Ive run out of ports on my board, and the only thing I have left available is an open PCI slot. i tried a very very old SI 3512 card, but it turned out to be a later revision that wouldnt work with the mac firmware flasher. but...

Excellent to hear! Ive been considering finally pulling the trigger on upgrading my home server which is still running Mavericks(!) but wanted to know for sure Mojave would still play nice with HPT raid volumes.

*SOLVED* trying to boot with just nvda_drv=1 would cause the same reboot loops. i figured out the problem. I have been building this machine on my workbench, with an old janky monitor with only a vga connection. Up until this point, i guess it hasnt been a problem. But it seems the 970...

hi all, Im having a heck of a time getting an EVGA GTX970 working on my El Capitan setup im doing for a buddy. I have this version of the card, bought off the hardware list on this site: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00NVODXR4/?tag=tonymacx86com-20 The system itself is as follows: Intel...

usb3 isnt completely working for me on this board. i can plug in usb2 devices and they work, they show up in system profiler, but usb3 thumb and hard drives arent seen at all. so my usb3 ports are working, but only as usb2. if i move the usb3 drive over to a usb2 port, it works fine and is seen...

well, weeks later and still no progress what so ever. ive learned a lot about DSDT editing and such in the meantime. I've now got a DSDT with fixes for Nvidia 500 series cards in place, its seeing my card, its pulling the monitor device ID properly, everything is recognized as it should...

thank you, i double-checked, its set on 5. yes i did find that. by default on my system its set to 2.0. My available options there are 1, 2, and 3.0. good point, I should look into that some more. I suppose the fact that the graphics card shows up under NPE3 is not an indication that the...

just want to say THANK YOU for at least responding to my posts! and thanks for the encouragement. i'll figure it out eventually. The dsdt thing was kind of strange.. Ive tried playing around with DSDTs before and always had trouble. my current system, a DZ77RE-75K board, has an impossible...

hmmmm i may have found something here. i noticed that on bootup with Clover, it was giving an error about AGPM Unknown Controller. Doing some forum searching I found somebody who was talking about it, apparently its because the system is expecting either GFX0 or IGPU depending on what SMBIOS...

alright! so, had the machine on last night, just doing some things, had some crashes and managed to actually catch it in the logs this time. perhaps this might shed some light on what's going on?

im going to try that this weekend as well. I prefer Mavericks, simply because of the dual-screen menu and dock options, but I was on Snow Leopard for a long time prior to that because it works perfectly with my TC cards (last official supported OS is 10.6) I wasnt even able to get a booted...
