Well this is an old build - I cannot go past El Cap with the GT610 - so if I can get this to work. Found one for $14. then I will go with it. If not I will use the digital monitor I have been using.. and setup the computer in a different spot. This is just a fun hobby machine. :)

thanks for the response Adrian B, so you are saying that it is not outputting Analog signals at all.. and MAYBE an active converter might work. This is all because of a desk and KVM setup I am trying to do with multi computers.. most of the others are older, and work on the VGA no issues.. but...

OK, doing a little reading. The connector on the GT610 and the GT730 are DVI - so they should support both digital and analog signals. The PC must be putting out both? or it sees the pins and sends either a Digital or Analog depending on the connection. THE Hackintosh must have some graphic...

Hello all. I am having a problem with my system when trying to use a DVI to VGA adaptor. Build is EL Cap. and if I use the cable DVI direct to a monitor that can take DVI.. works like a charm. The adaptor I am using is a DVI-A analog adaptor. If I use this adaptor on a PC.. works like a...

Hi, have not been on in a while. I thought I would ask (P1LGRIM) do you think your upgrade to High Sierra from Sierra would work from EL Cap? I am on El Cap right now, did not bother with Sierra, but saw that you posted the off topic reply in the Mavericks section that you were able to get your...

One last question before I push the install button P1LGRIM, is your reminder of the Core 2 Quad Q8200 significant? My DC7900 is a Core 2 Duo @3mhz James

Hello again P1LGRIM, I have not posted for a while but I saw your last post about sierra. You upgraded through the store from what? I am still on El Cap. I guess I could make a complete backup and then try this. Love the fact that your still playing with the dc7900. Thanks

Yes P1LGRIM, that was the issue, I had tried a few other things.. SO in the Config.plist - I unchecked the Nvidia injection.. and in boot .. I unchecked Nvidia disable. I am now running with full GPU support. THanks James

I am also having issues with the GT610. I can boot.. nv injected or no.. BUT.. although the system report shows a GT610.. if I run a graphics bench like cinebench it says my graphics is apple software rendering. Also just standard use of the OS gives me artifacts and choppiness. I am pretty...

Update Well have been playing with El Capitan for a couple of days now. I did do something to the install that pooched the boot, since it was so fresh it was easier to do a re-install than try and fix it with some of the methods I found here on tonymacx. This time I did the install as an...

Thanks again P1LGRIM.. I am up and running with my El Capitan on a HP DC7900.. so far everything working. I am not using original onboard sound I have a USB sound card. I think this actually is a bit faster than the YOS.. so far.. and I am running it off an external USB drive.. which it fine...

OK, your revised dsdt worked. I got the install to boot up. I have successfully installed that on to my HD. I can boot the HD with the install media, not the HD itself.. so I assume this method does not install clover on the HD.. so I have to do that yet. What I did not get was the system to...

Ok is there a log thats saved so I can show the verbose boot to you? OR do I try and take a video with my phone? ------------- I have made a USB install media.. so far.. thats all I am trying to get booting. I have an external drive i will be installing this on. James

well the clover install worked fine, but I was not able to boot the El Cap install. I could use clover that I put on the usb to launch my Yos install, ... so I assume its something in my config it is not liking. No log is stored? How can I troubleshoot this? I am on my 610GT video card.. could...

OK, got that.. You say (requires your SMBIOS info etc). Where to I get that? I found a program called Clover Configurator? or is this just a matter of finding in a file? Thanks

P1LGRIM, you say you installed Clover in legacy mode. But I am finding no mention of legacy mode in the Create media guide.. and in the pkg itself I am not finding an option in the customize area that specifies that? am I missing something?

Sorry.. I will re-read again..

Thanks P1LGRIM, I think that guide will be very helpful. With the create media method I assume its just a matter of changing the file name to the current EL CAP app? (answer below - I just needed to read the create media guide more completely) Not that I want to risk it yet, but if I just...

Hello, trying to get an HP DC7900 up and running. I know it has been done already. I wanted to post here to help others who might also be trying to get a HP in this family going. I built a Unibeast installer. Standard options. I know of a DST to add.. Would I do this before my first attempted...

So this is not a unibeast install? Do I refer to your original guide for Mav? and make the changes with what you have here? Specifically for me I have never done a Clover install.. so I am not sure how .. can you point me? James
