From what I have read while researching for my Z68XP-UD3, for AsRock you may need to set darkwake=8 in config.plist, you can use Clover Configurator to mount the USB EFI partition (Tools > Mount EFI) and edit config.plist (Boot Section, type it on upper left Custom Flags Field, remember to save...

First of all, Thank You Lorenzf for taking the time to report back in such detailed manner, thanks for sharing! Good one using slow mo on the phone!!!! I think that is a slick application for IT! :headbang: I'm on the same boat, installing High Sierra on this same board. What BIOS version do...

Hello, Been using this system for more years I would admit, was still running Lion (I know, I know...). It's always on, but I found it has rebooted, and the gigabyte bios (F6) was on screen suggesting to load safe defaults. I set the BIOS at is has always been, see the Apple logo appear with...

thanks for the link, trs96! dougoftheabaci: I've been reading and reading (ouch) and was afraid of that... my current monitor is a HP ZR22W, a decent monitor and cross-reading the buyers guide advised monitors and tft central I realized maybe "affordable" 4K monitors weren't going to be an...

Hi, My trusty hackintosh, built circa late 2010-2011 (see about me for specs) has served, and is serving me well. It's in fact the system I enjoyed most and felt it has been the money in computers better spent in my life (I have had Mac Pros, MacBooks, iMacs, and self built systems for over a...

Well, I managed to get the keyboard running, something odd should have happened with the PS2 drivers. BTW card is Geforce Go 7950GTX, sorry. Had this laptop with vanilla retail 10.6.3 previously installed using another method, but the 7900 died and bought this one to replace it, then decided...

hi, Can you please share the procedure? maybe a DSDT? I followed the usual steps: disabled 1 core in the BIOS (A10) Boot using iboot, swap for SL 10.6.3, pressed F5, install Reboot again with iboot. Install 10.6.8, then multibeast, chimera, Voodoo kexts for trackpad and sound, etc The...

I have Lion installed on a Nocti 60Gb mSATA. Did the TRIM enabler thing, check System Profiler, Serial ATA, Look for "TRIM compatibility" it should read "Yes" Gerry, did that and didn't see anything regarding the disk was trimmed. However, I found a way to force the trimming: While in...

Jus a blind shot, but check your bios, does the firewire interface share IRQ with the ethernet card or other generally busy device? if so try to change it...

Solidwww, yep, you're right, that caching received the name SRT by intel, "Smart Response Technology" but that's using a specific driver and only with RAID setups, using a driver that AFAIK is only available under windows. The idea is using the SSD as a "proxy" for the HDDs, that way after the...

I would like to know also :) I'd say tony rationale when choosing a 3Gb/s mSATA was the price/performance ratio, taking into account is going to be a system drive, so no need for 500MB/s speeds here, specially having lots of RAM where apps and libraries will be loaded and kept once launched. A...

I'll go for a USB DAC. I have experience building them (DIY) and so far my preferred ones are TDA1543 and WM87xx based ones. Had a look and right now WM8740 based ones seems to be the best bang for the buck. Search for "WM8740 usb dac" on eBay and you'll find them assembled w/o case and supply...
