Hi guys, I plan another hackintosh build next days. CPU: Core i7-2600K Maiboard: Gigabyte GA-Z68XP-UD3 Ram: 16GB Corsair Vengeance (PC1600, CL9) DDR3-RAM [...] So far I think it should be make a good build for Snow Leopard / 10.6.8, no? Now the complicated part begins with the GPU. I searched...

Re: AudioEnabler - Patcher for Onboard & HDMI - TESTERS NEEDED I got my GT240 working with it. My fault was not to have a HDMI device plugged in at boot time. Stupid mistake! :roll:

My hackintosh is up for "professional audio use" and running since a few days. I own several Apple computers, but I am not very happy that I can't customize them as much as I want. I needed a build that is extremely quiet, but still has some horsepower. However, the build is an additional...

I can't see if your question is about initial install from DVD or first boot after install from DVD. If it's about inital install: Do you use SATA or IDE DVD drive? I had the same behaviour on my first build (GA-P55A-UD4) a few days ago. Simple reason, IDE DVD is not supported on my board...

If you want to change to 64bit anyway: You don't have to reinstall. OS X comes with 32bit and 64bit Kernels, you just need to change. - Open /Extra/com.apple.Boot.plist - Set string <string>arch=x86_64</string> to kernel flags key. - ( or change from <string>arch=i386</string> to...

Re: AudioEnabler - Patcher for Onboard & HDMI - TESTERS NEEDED ...continued (missing screenshot + dsdt attached)

Re: AudioEnabler - Patcher for Onboard & HDMI - TESTERS NEEDED Ok, I tested today. ALC889 Audio is working now! I was not able to activate it previously (tried a lot of different solutions). With HDMI I still have problems. Maybe it is related to the DSDT edit? Here is what I did: - Use DSDT...

I bought Avid Pro Tools and realized that it won't work on PC with my audio interface. I was getting tired of waiting for Avid until they fix it, so I Built a Hackintosh to get rid of the limitation in Digidesign / ASIO driver combo. Now Core Audio allows me to use my favorite DAW host with my...

Ok, thanks! Going to buy SD. Think it will save some time- (as i am new to Hackintosh and I guess I need a lot of restoring after I did something wrong :lol: ) Yes, it's almost the same backup plan I have. (In addition I have images from fresh/"Vanilla" installs as well as a clone of my Snow...

Hey edgeuser99, Thanks! I wish I had read this earlier... Of course IDE drive didn't work (for my board)... It took me hours to understand :banghead: Haha, but then I found smooth workaround saving time for the future... (using Snow Leo install DVD cloned to HDD & iBoot on USB Drive)...

Is there any issue or known drawbacks with using just Disk Utility for backups? I built my first system and created a DMG after first install (10.6.3). I had problems after upgrading to 10.6.6, so I booted another partition and wrote the DMG back - no problems, just had to reinstall boot...

Hey guys, thanks for your replies! Yes, nick is inspired by Ben Stanford. :) I did change all components again, because I had the chance to get those at a pretty low price, saving a few bucks that can be spent on extras (like a SSD drive and a HDD powerswitch...) I updated the built in my...

Hi all, I am going to buy hardware for my first hackintosh built. The machine is going to be used as a audio machine the control room.- Maybe someone has an advice, even it is not hackintosh related- because the machine has to be: -> As compatible with "plain" SL as possible -> Silent as...
