Sorry for breaking the rules. I fixed my profile. I've been reading a ton, including R'ing The FM(s). The gigabyte site has conflicting info. It seems like this board supports ECC but maybe only unbuffered ECC with is a little less common. That aligns with what I see posted in this thread...

Digging up an old one here. I just resurrected my GA-X58A-UD3R Ver 2.0 and bought a Xeon L5520 (for $4) and want to use the following ECC memory: MANUFACTURER: ELPIDA PART NUMBER: EBJ41HE4BAFA-AE-E COMPONENT DENSITY: 4GB PRODUCT BUS TYPE: PC3-8500R COMPONENT SPEED: DDR3-1066 REGISTERED...

It was a bad cable. I picked one up off ebay (two actually). I'm loving the new screen! in case anyone is shopping: http://www.ebay.com/itm/271667793053?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 http://www.ebay.com/itm/271791039988?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 Thanks again to all those who made this...

I'm 99% sure the part I bought off Amazon is not actually a dual-link LVDS cable PN: 50.4RY03.001 I've reseated the cable many times and get the same result as the non dual link original cable (as expected). Does anyone have a good known US source for this cable? This is what I see in El...

Please add Intel i5 3340M when you have some time. Thanks!

Thanks to all who have contributed to this and other threads around the ProBook hack. I've been using a 4540s for a few weeks and LOVE it aside from the display. I've been reading this thread and decided to jump in with these purchases...

delete- I reinstalled windows

I still use my first hack, GA-P35-DS3L on 10.5 almost every day for browsing. It has an Pentium Dual-Core E2140 1.6 GHz I picked up for $12 open box from microcenter with every intention of replacing it. I OC'ed to 2.8 and never felt the need to upgrade. I use it to run Adobe CS3 that...

I'm thinking about picking up a c720 and would love to know how well it can run OSX. I have a desktop running 10.8.5 and an unsupported Haswell Pentium G3220 so the concept isn't completely foreign. Can it dual boot OSX and cromium? how is the trackpad, video acceleration, and wifi? Thanks!

I had to update my installer from 10.8.4 to 10.8.5 and all is good. The virtualization works for parallels too. Thanks'

Same here.

Can you tell me about your settings? I've tried 2 different video card that work in hacks and am stuck at a black screen.

I'm stuck here too. I'm going to try 10.8 for now.

I'm on Lion on my newer i7 rig. I am sort of "stuck" on SL on my Socket 775 - GA-P35-DS3L (rev. 2.0) because I haven't found a good lion guide.
