    650 ti and Mojave

    @djcoma Apologies for the belated response. No, I don't think I ever tried it - I just bought a cheap GT 710 which works fine for my purposes. Did you have any luck with it?

    i7 3770k Mojave compatibility

    Update: now happily running at 1440p. I never actually installed WEG, it just started working at some point (I didn't even notice exactly when :lol:). Yesterday I successfully installed the kext to make my old TP-link adapter work, so I'm now totally up and running. Thanks for the help everyone.

    Yeah it does have DVI so I can always give that a try if I have no luck with the HDMI. Thanks! Hopefully I won't need it...

    i7 3770k Mojave compatibility

    The card doesn't have DP, but I'm using HDMI and it works fine on my Windows boot. Good shout though, not all cables are made equal. Thanks for the video guide, I'll check that out.

    Was that using WEG? Was it straightforward to set up?

    i7 3770k Mojave compatibility

    I've successfully got Mojave up and running. I decided to buy a GT 710 in the end, as it turned out that my motherboard didn't support 1440p (due to only having HDMI 1.2, I think?) I'm stuck at 1080p for now, so I'm just reading through the Lilu/WEG guide and will report back later.

    [Solved] macOS could not be installed on your computer...installer resources error

    I know this is an old thread but the command line solutions mentioned helped me install Mojave. I wanted to add a note that you need to be connected to the Internet for it to work, otherwise you get an authorisation error. It's possible this is what caused my installation to fail in the first...

    650 ti and Mojave

    I've read a lot about issues with the GTX 650 Ti in Mojave. Is there a fix for this yet, or has anyone successfully got it to work without glitches? I'd like to use it to drive a 4k display (albeit at 30fps), but failing that I'll use a 2k display with the on board graphics.

    Thanks for the input, I'll keep that in mind when I come to do the upgrade. Good to know that it should work.

    i7 3770k Mojave compatibility

    Good to know, thanks. I'll be sure to look up the BIOS revision and WiFi card workaround. I'm planning to drive a 2K display - the spec says that should be fine, but is there any reason I would have issues above 1080p? I'm not planning on gaming or anything graphically intensive as it's a...

    i7 3770k Mojave compatibility

    Howdy folks I have a build that I'm planning to upgrade to Mojave. Off the top of my head I can't remember which OS X version is currently on there, but it's a few years old and I suspect it's easier to do a fresh install. It's a 3770k with Gigabyte GA-Z77-DS3H, a compatible Startech...

    Windows 7 will only boot from HDD even when choosing SSD

    Thanks for the reply Bob. I don't understand what you mean by this, would you be able to explain please? The bootloader (Chimera) is on my original SSD drive (OSX install) and the BIOS is set to boot from this drive. I've not installed a bootloader onto the HDD. I didn't spot that other...

    Upgraded video card, now Yosemite wont boot.

    Any luck with this buddy? I was having similar trouble with my 970 over the weekend. I'm by no means an expert but here are a few things I tried. First thing to try: just wait for ages on the grey osx screen. I found that it did actually load after a minute or so. I think it's to do with...

    Windows 7 will only boot from HDD even when choosing SSD

    Hello Long time lurker here, made my original build about two years ago and been happy since then. I dual boot OSX 10.10.3 and Windows 7 Ultimate. Yesterday I upgraded my Windows boot to an SSD (Samsung EVO 850) - it was previously a partition on an HDD. It will boot from the SSD no trouble...
