Ok, I am sorted now. I had to take out the HDD and put it into another computer and format it on there as NTFS. Back on the hackintosh now and reformatting it back to FAT32... Dont know why this happened, just hope it doesnt happen again... Glad I have a 100% up to date backup!

Hey, thanks for the reply. Yes, I tried that, It boots into a DOS menu asking me to press enter if I want to load into the new OS - but I cant because the keyboard doesnt respond on this menu either. edit: Update on this: Have tried used the boot menu to try boot from each of the hard drives...

Hi guys, Ran into this problem today: Yesterday I was moving my music library over to a new internal drive (FAT32, shared Win7 and OSX), I did this using iTunes (Copy to folder when importing and manage files). This was all ok, and I could play the songs in iTunes fine. I hit sleep manually...

So, tonight my PSU sparked and tripped the circuit breaker. Its not working anymore. Im wondering if its possible to fix the PSU, and what i might need to fix on it. It's only about 2 weeks old, but I cant return it as I've taken it out of its original enclosure and put it into a G5 casing...

Hey macorhack and POSTpro, thanks for the replies. I had followed those threads and guides, but with no success. MiniITX kindly stepped me through the install, and after several hours, and a few fresh installs, we finally got a bootable system. The HD4000 proved to be the big issue for me. We...

I saw that too, but I dont know how to set them to non-UEFI? I disconnected all other HDD's, including my 'test' sata drive and I was able to get a P0 drive. I then saved that config and booted with -v -f and got the same SMC driver error, though this time the screen did not go to sleep.:

No problem, i needed to sleep too! I've got PM turned on now. I reset factory settings again according to the guide you posted on the first page of this thread. One thing i noticed again while i was in BIOS was all the drives are UEFI again.. I started ML in -v and saw the unknown CPU error...

Inside the dict tags? The computer now turns the display off after a few seconds on the grey apple loading screen. Does this both in normal startup and -v -f.

OK, I can now boot into my test drive. I edited the .plist file on the ML drive and changed it from this: to this: With that saved, i tried booting into my ML drive with -v: Unknown CPU Model & Failed to Locate SMC Driver Also, now my boot screen (with the red apple) is cut off at the...

Still cant get it to boot into the test drive. When it finished installing os x on test drive, I was away from the computer and it booted into the ML disk by default after the install. Im going to try install os x on the test drive one more time and catch it before it boots up another drive.. if...

I am reinstalling ML onto my 'Test' drive and will boot into that in the next 20mins. Do you want me to change the entire .plist file, or just append or edit those fields you have pasted in your post?

This is my -v -x -f attempt to boot into the test drive (where I do not have multibeast installed) I can actually access my ML drive over the network while it is stuck on the grey apple loading screen from my other mac. I can edit the .plist file from there instead?

right now? I dont know. Before? Yes, it was definitely there.

I have had FakeSMC installed before and still got the SMC driver not found. Im just following MiniITX's and rlf156's advice here.

This part I dont understand. How do i edit that file with no access? I have HDD 'Mountain Lion' and HDD 'Test'. ML has multibeast installed and it is that drive which i have pasted the screen shots of while booting. Test has no multibeast on it., but wont boot when i select it from the option...
