so I sorted the booting, and changed out the graphics cards. I saw a small increase in frame rates from the radeon to the 2 geforce cards. Cinebench increased from mid 40's to 59 FPS, I was able to jump from mid settings to high settings on everything in tomb raider (no tress effects or physx...

Problem is I'm afraid to shut it off...I was booting with cpus=1 to get past a kernal panic cycle, then I lost track of it during a reboot and it cycled a bit then came up....I don't want to shut it down cause its both stable and has all the CPU cores functioning lol.

Well, there is cuda core concerns in that eventually I would like to run photoshop and a few others on here, and the fact that I didn't get physx things at all when I ran arkham asylum a little while ago, but those are fundamentally not a problem persay. That being said I don't see any graphical...

Ok so I have a stable hackintosh build. Took a bit of work to get everything running but it finally does. Problem is I took a machine I had already laying around that needed a clean and got that working since most of its hardware I knew already worked. Thing is it had a Radeon HD 6870 2 gig card...

I started from scratch on my laptop (specs still in the signature) using these instructions and kexts as it looks like my machine is exactly the same as the OP i figured it should work. Problem is now it gives the unable to open line then hangs on the line mounted Macintosh HD. I've tried -v -x...

Well, is it sufficient to change the name of the system in smbios.plist? or do I need to do more to get it correct? Would that not loading prevent the computer from hibernating/sleeping properly?

Looking at Everymac.com it seems these macs are the closest: http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook/specs/macbook-core-2-duo-2.4-black-13-early-2008-penryn-specs.html or...

I think this is what you are asking for. Let me know if its not.

Anyone got any help out there?

sorry better now?

There now can you help me?

Plus I'm not sure that the smbios is set right. SMBIOS.plist says it is giving the system a Macbookpro 5,3 but the dell seems to have a core 2 duo derived centrino 2. I think the 5,3 was the first with a Core i based processor. Should I change it over to a regular macbook early itteration? or what?

Yeah that post is useless since it assumes that the person using it knows where everything goes. I'm not entirely sure where everything goes. I think I got it correct and it still didn't work. I added these lines to org.chameleon.boot.plist: <key>GeneratePStates</key> <string>Yes</string>...

So I got a dell from the school at which I work and since I'm not much on windows I followed this tutorial: http://forum.osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/6118-osx-mavericks-install-on-dell-latitude-e6400/ And got it running mac OS 10.9.5. The tutorial doesn't cover doing anything about...

So I used to have parallels 7 but that provided some games with wierd spinny mouse errors where the mouse just spins the character in place or something like that. So I upgraded to parallels 8 cause that was supposedly fixed...well it is, but now windows aero has issues. I get strange...
