. Hi Pilgrim! I somehow figured it out why it wasnt showing the primary SSD. I changed the HD Priority in BIOS manually, by changing the order priority. Also F12 during the reboot. I ended up buying a new SSD [an Samsung EVO 250gb] Thinking it was a hardware thing with the Corsair. I...

sata 2 port workaround doesnt work. i even unplugged my Dvd drive too. still same issue with Disk utility...

is there a link that shows a list of compatible SSDs for the Mac? i read somewher that OWC SSDs are very compatible. is this true? it appears My Corsair uses Sandforce or Phison controllers. will these work? Are Samsung SSDs just as good? Thanks!

So it still does not recognize in Disk Utility during install :-(. Formatted the Corsair drive to GUID Mac OS Journaled 1 Partition. Still need help! Anybody?

Hello Going! A friend told me to format it to exFat32/exfat. Prior I had installed Win7 on it. I had full reformat exFat after the install. I have an old Macbook running Leopard, I will try reformatting it via External drive to Mac Journaled to see if it helps. Friend also told me there...

Hello all, My 2nd build. Been awhile. Hoping to get some help. Followed the Yosemite Guide as much as I could. Got all the way to Install screen. But can't seem to get Disk Utility to show/register my Corsair Force LS Sata 3 SSD [120gb] in the list so I can install Yosemite. Tried to...

------------------ This was my 2nd time reinstalling SL this time around. And I ran into the same 1024x768 screen rez issue. I used iBoot 2.5 instead of 2.6. Forgot exactly why, but I think 2.6 wasnt loading during install. Delete NVEnabler.kext? Mmm ok? Where is the filepath to delete that...

Really? I couldnt find any info about QE on my particular vid card. Where did you see this? Links? Still trying to figure out how to do a workaround. Thanks!

Yes I tried to install FCP & iLife 11. Neither programs could not be installed cuz it was askin for Quartz Extreme. I have a separate graphic card. Looking for buying advice, on which cards are Mac Compatible [for FCP & iLife 11]

Hello All! Anyone know which Video graphics cards are compatible with Final Cut Pro 7/iLife 11? When installing FCP in my build, the install requirements asked for QE -- Quartz Extreme and CI -- Core Image My Hackintosh rig is still relatively new and I just recently got outta 1024x768 rez...

Im trying to do the same build for a FCP Video Editing Rig too. Im not a big techie, but from what I read and been told by others smarter than me. Use the Green drives for pure offline dailies storage. The Green drives are too slow for regular editing within FCP. You'd prolly wanna use a black...

After experimenting for a coupla hours and looking over the replies, I've gotten partial success! Thanks to Karacho and CoreOSX for taking the time to help Troubleshoot! Was able to change resolution to 1920x1200. :-) But sadly couldn't get 1600x900. :-( Thinking it may be the Dell 2408wfp...

Updated 75 to 60. Removed "arch=i386" Was told to use x60 instead of @60. Not sure if that is correct. Still stuck at 1024x768 display :-( Anything else I should try? Here's what my .plist currently looks like. Thanks all for your continued help!!! <dict> <key>Kernel</key>...

Made those changes. Ran the nvidia update too. Rebooted. Unfortunately, that didnt work either. Anything else I should try? Thanks so much!!!

Its not working :-(. Still stuck at 1024x768. I overwrote it. Rebooted and all that stuff. Here is what my updated boot.plist looks like currently ----------------------------------- <dict> <key>Kernel</key> <string>mach_kernel</string> <key>Kernel Flags</key> <string>arch=i386</string>...
