    Apple Thunderbolt Display + Hackintosh?

    I have my Thunderbolt Display working with sound, camera, brightness controls and USB hub. I had to do a lot of investigation and tons of trial and error. Honestly, I would never do this again as I wasted too much time on it and would have been better off buying another monitor. THIS IS NOT A...

    Graphics Test: Bruce X

    Thank you for this. My speeds went from ~50 secs to about 12 secs after changing this. Additionally, my itunes DRM files started playing as well (not sure this is related or not)

    Kernel Panic while PC in sleep mode.

    not a useful post from me other than I have the same issue. *** Panic Report *** panic(cpu 0 caller 0xffffff8015f8776f): Kernel trap at 0xffffff7f969747d5, type 14=page fault, registers: CR0: 0x000000008001003b, CR2: 0xffffff83be115008, CR3: 0x000000002b9b0000, CR4: 0x00000000003627e0 RAX...

    WindowServer Service only ran for 0 seconds

    For what it's worth, physically removing the discrete graphics card, forcing the MOBO GPU in BIOS, and disabling the nvidia drivers in clover command line allowed the installation for me. This then allowed me to install the nvidia web drivers (I got an error message on install but ignored it)...

    Direct Update to macOS Sierra using Clover

    Just wanted to say this method worked like a charm for me. Using method from #1 hosed my EFI partition. I was able to recover it and using method above I'm on Sierra now.

    Sleep doesn't work on X58A-UD3R

    I have a similar board (although mine is rev 1 with F5 BIOS) and I can get it to sleep and wake fine using multibeast and tony's dsdt. I'm assuming you've removed the nullcpupowemanagement.kext? old sleep enablers? What version mobo do you have and what's in your Extra's folder?

    Help lion asking for a password

    I had a similar problem on my iMac. I ended up adding a password for the account (it had no password prior to the Lion upgrade). Then I logged into the account and removed the password. That worked for me.

    Can't hide "Installer" partition after install

    Have you tried using labels instead like : <key>Hide Partition</key> <string>"Installer" "2TB Storage" "2TB External"</string> I found that suggestion on viewtopic.php?f=7&t=22480

    Desktop Icons disappear after lion install...?

    Have you tried deleting and re-creating the Desktop folder in your users folder or remove all the .ds_store files?

    Help Lion successful install but won't boot?!

    Have you tried booting into lion using -x -v -f at the chimera boot screen? What is the error/kernel panic you are seeing when logging in?

    [LOCKED] Guide - New ATI Kexts from iMac 10.6.7 - 5XXX/6XXX

    Re: Guide - New ATI Kexts from iMac 10.6.7 Update - 5XXX/6XXX I believe that Multibeast 3.8 has Chimera which has some drivers to recognize ATI cards. That being said, to get certain resolutions you may have to monkey with different configs. I have a similar card to yours and was able to get...

    AnySolution for only one resolution showing on GTX 460 card?

    I ended up getting so frustrated ( I tired older drivers, EFI strings, NVenabler, etc) that I switched to an ATI card (6870) and that seems to be working fine. I switched since a friend who works at Apple suggested that ATI has been and will be better supported than nVidia.

    Freezing up after a while.

    if you have certain nvidia cards (e.g. 460) there appears to be a "Fermi Freeze" issue on some systems.

    AnySolution for only one resolution showing on GTX 460 card?

    OK...I've been defeated for the moment by this card. Searching the forums hasn't revealed any solutions other than some 460 cards work and others don't and those that do get the fermi freeze. I had a working hackintosh running 10.6.8 and the GTX 460 card. I made the mistake of "fixing"...

    Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update - The Official Thread

    Just sharing my experience with the 10.6.8 update. I got the infamous PCI configuration stall. Strangely enough unplugging the power on my machine allowed me to boot into the OS once per unplug. unplugging mac seems to reset mobo and allow for at least one boot loaded nvidia oem drivers. failed...

    Best app for backup hackintosh

    similar to Macman, i've never had a problem with CCC. It's a great program. In fact today, i used it to clone my 500gb to a 2tb 7200 hitachi deskstar. The hackintosh boots on the 2tb with no problem.
