    Seagate Hard Drive is not read after upgrade to Yosemite 10.10.3

    Yes you have a point, my bad! I thought the seagate baracuda was infamous enough. Yes it's a 3.5-inch internal SATA and my mother board is a gigabyte z77-d3h. I'm also using clover this time, which is a bit different from last time. But I didnt think this would make a difference Also...

    Seagate Hard Drive is not read after upgrade to Yosemite 10.10.3

    I had the same issues with my Seagate HD a few months ago, so I sent it to be fixed and they changed the board of the HD and it worked on my previous install 10.10.1 I decided to upgrade to 10.10.3 to fix some issues, and now the HD won't register on my computer. It runs, and it works, I can...

    Automatically Auto-Adjust Monitor using a Script?

    1280x768 is bigger. I might try 1280x720, but I'm worried it might be unsupported for some stupid reason and SwitchResX automatically locks in a resolution once you choose it. So I will have to do a reinstall if the mode is unsupported... not worth it at all.

    Automatically Auto-Adjust Monitor using a Script?

    Unfortunately I have no idea what the model is exactly. All I know is that it's 24" , a samsung TV, probably 6 years old, and that it only goes up to 720p. A quick google search pulled up this TV: http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0019UP0A0/?tag=tonymacx86-21 . This looks exactly like mine, except...

    Automatically Auto-Adjust Monitor using a Script?

    Hallelujah!! After half a year of literally restarting my computer at least 5 times a day, I finally made my 560 Ti graphics card work with Yosemite!! Thanks to this community!!! :D :D :) ;) Now all I have left to make this computer perfect is just to fix the positioning of the screen... This...

    Is this a bios or hard drive problem??

    Well, ****. I was hoping it wouldnt come to this. But I've looked up a lot of other things, and accompanied by your message, I think this is confirmation enough that nothing can be done. It's 10 PM now and I need to submit a file to a competition before 5 AM. Now the programs I need to run...

    Is this a bios or hard drive problem??

    No it doesn't it's just filled with my project files. I have no idea what to do. I CAN try reinstalling yosemite, but since HD isnt readable from the installer, I'm pretty sure that's a dead end. i have a working ML installation USB (from the appstore file i used to make my first build) but when...

    Is this a bios or hard drive problem??

    Can this have anything to do with the fact that last time the OS was able to read the HD, (it was still faulty) so I did a disk repair, and while it was finishing up (it told me the disk had been repaird, but said something about fixing somethig for boot) while it was finishing up I opened...

    Is this a bios or hard drive problem??

    I did but no luck. The weird part is that everything opens up normally when I disconnect the hard drive. Sure it works normally(sometimes) when it's connected, but when I disconnect the HD I can even open up the installer USB(the one I used to install yosemite). As soon as I connect the HD...

    Is this a bios or hard drive problem??

    Whoops! Looks like I've been following the wrong guide! I followed this guide and it did some progress. Now I'm back to where I started. My HD can't be read by OS X, but OS boots fine I have a 2 TB HDD that I keep for storage while my 64 ssd is for boot. My motherboard is GA-Z77-D3H.

    I quit... I'm sick of all this, seriously

    Heyy remember me?? I decided I'd hold off upgrading since the install, while slow, was not a wreck. That was until this morning when my HD (the slow one remember?) just stopped showing up in finder. To fix this I thought maybe I'd play with the BIOS. Now the problem is I dont evem remembr what...

    Is this a bios or hard drive problem??

    I used to have a broken but functional yosemite build. But for some reason my hard drive didnt want to be read by the mac. So i played around with the UEFI settings and now I can't even boot up on the SSD! I couldnt make a brand new install as it wont load the USB even. I tried unplugging...

    I quit... I'm sick of all this, seriously

    OK, everytime I plug the display cable into the motherboard's port my computer boots up black. Anyway, I've moved past that. Hopefully I'll sell my 560Ti in a few weeks, and then I'll buy a 750. It's the most convenient option right now (excellent recommendation) all I want is something...

    I quit... I'm sick of all this, seriously

    Wait, I'm sorry but something's come up. While on safari (a frequent cause of crashing), the computer froze and I had to hard restart it. When I did, it showed the same graphics problem has been detected message. I think I may have actually been running on the GPU, I can still see it in the...

    I quit... I'm sick of all this, seriously

    I think that may be the most useful answer I've gotten yet... The one I've been fearing the most, too. I'm running now on the Intel graphics using the setting you suggested and it seems to be running smoothly. But Finder is still extremely slow when opening new folders.. Any ideas as to why...
