well a benchmark or two i guess. scored 835 in luxmark. this is looooooow. on win7 side it's over 2500. i guess i've still got some work to do.

update 3 - our hero, triumphant -- 280x in - boot. black screen. oops! reboot, graphicsEnabler=no, joyous desktop. fix graphicsEnabler in Boot.plist, reboot, success. everything is working. haven't run any benchmarks, but probably won't bother. the heavy gaming happens on the win7 side of...

update 2 -- Multibeast fails. log telling me it can't find nodes. but multibeast, you lie. i've known you for years, and you lie, like a cheap rug you lie. always check to see if it actually did the install, kids. look for the files. it missed a few things - the fail can happen before it...

update 1 -- removed 280x, replaced 460 gtx. KP on boot. reinstall mavericks. fails the first time because hackintosh successful install the second time. did nothing different. try try again. HDD boot loader is older, boot doesn't even KP... it just restarts USB (installer, unibeast...

i wonder about my brain sometimes. i picked up a new-open box 280x at a great price - powercolor turboduo. thank you, late arriving miners. i was running 10.7.5 on the rig in my profile. i got it in my head that not only would i install the new card, i'd update to mavericks, AND update...

hi there, i have this card working in lion. i also did have it working with snow leopard. happy to help you if i can. could use more info (motherboard model, install method - i assume multibeast, connector to screen - HDMI, DVI, etc) i'm guessing resolution is stuck at 1024x768. basically...

/cast thread resurrect figured i'd circle back after finally getting this sorted. can't say i solved it exactly, but did find a workaround. after swapping to another known-good hackintosh video card - 9800gtx - and still getting the issue, i wiped and started over. installed 10.7 with no...

hi, i'm running one (MSI Hawk) and it has been trouble-free and fully supported on Lion up to 10.7.5... no info on mountain lion though, sorry.

finally had a moment to check the log: Feb 25 12:26:44 kernel[0]: NVDA(OpenGL): Channel exception! exception type = 0xd = GR: SW Notify Error Feb 25 12:26:44 kernel[0]: 0000006e Feb 25 12:26:44 kernel[0]: 00200000 00008597 00000474 00000010 Feb 25 12:26:44 kernel[0]: 0000047e 00000dfc...

thanks, i will keep at it for a while. it cost me nothing, so it's no great loss if i can't get it to run. but not as much fun ;) the second card has the behavior too, sadly. same manufacturer, similar model but different board and layout. on this one i have a VGA header and connector so no...

update - i've swapped in another gt 220 just to rule out a hardware failure. we'll see :)

hi, older motherboard (ep35-ds3l) and an msi gt 220 card running unibeast/multibeast install of 10.7.5 with dsdt. install was painless, no surprises or hiccups. (thanks for the millionth time for these great tools - they really play a role in bringing hackintosh to the masses) the one...

when you wake, if it sounds like the machine is waking, but you don't get a video signal, try hitting the spacebar/clicking the mouse button a second time. see if that works. mine is doing this now, where if i don't give it some sort of input, it goes back to sleep. i am in 10.7.1, sandy bridge...

Re: ALC889 AppleHDA.kext (10.7.1 Lion) yes, and i will probably change back. i went to macpro3,1 mainly because i did something wrong in appleGraphicsPowerManagement and my graphics were under performing. i have to re-read on how to get it working right for imac12,1. i'm on liquid cooling...

Re: ALC889 AppleHDA.kext (10.7.1 Lion) i had read somewhere that the popping is in fact the audio 'waking up' from an energy saving feature. i made mine go away by changing my model back to MacPro3,1 from iMac12,1. i am on GA-P67-UD4-B3.

added question: i have been only looking at Z68 motherboards. should i consider P67? is there a good choice from that chipset to accomplish my goal?

it would save some time for sure :D i will have to look into it.

long-time listener, first-time caller. i'm running a great little hack right now on a GA-EP35-DS3L, 460 GTX video, running 10.7.1 with no issues, everything working. i am completely happy with this machine, but it's a little old and a little slow. i've made the decision to jump to sandy...
