It's true that the bulk of the discussion has deviated from the specifics of the title. The reason for the VRS8 discussion taking place here, however, is that the issue with the Quantum and the issue with the VRS8 initially present themselves with identical symptoms. I can't say with any...

Hi joevt, luckyal and I are both attempting to troubleshoot/search out a solution to an issue quite similar to the one discussed here, but with the Slate Digital VRS-8 audio interface (rather than the PreSonus Quantum mentioned above). Your posts hint at a potential solution.. or maybe...

I don't disagree with you that it would be wise for the unit to work on the maximum number of available systems. I am still hoping it eventually will. I've considered getting an actual Mac on different occasions, but every time I look at their product line it seems lacking in comparison to what...

Hey again, As I am in the same situation as you, I have been following this thread and other conversations regarding the VRS-8 and Hackintosh systems. Unfortunately, my investigation would suggest that our issues have nothing to do with which Thunderbolt card we are using or how it is set up...

Maybe someone in this thread can help me out with this: I have an Asus Prime Z270-A motherboard with an i7-7700K, a Gigabyte Alpine Ridge 2.0 Thunderbolt card, and OS X Sierra 10.12.6. I recently bought two Slate VRS-8 interfaces and while they both show up in attached devices under Windows 10...

Ah, yeah I see that now. I'd just found your post while searching to remedy the same basic problem. I'm still trying to determine if my issue is with thunderbolt itself or just the VRS8 not being detected.

Any chance you ever figured this out? I have an Alpine Ridge card installed on an Asus Prime z270a which works fine in Windows 10, and actually works with the VRS-8 in Windows (even though windows thunderbolt isn't currently supposed to be working), but I can't seem to get the VRS8 to show up...

Is it possible that something like clearing out the imaginary nvram (or however that works?) could fix this? I also swapped out for aptiofix2000 (spelling?).. would that have any effect? Maybe someone could either walk me through the process of creating a custom SSDT (I think that's what...

Hey guys, So here's what I'm dealing with: 1) I am in the process of trying to get a Thunderbolt audio interface to work in OS X Sierra (10.12.3). So far, I managed to get my Gigabyte Alpine Ridge (2.0) card to work just fine in Windows 10. The audio interface is recognized and works within...

Hi, So I have been gearing up to getting Thunderbolt working on my machine and reading various posts/threads. Pretty much every guide includes a section using a windows install. My Question: Other than lending itself to bios/firmware updates (if those updates are even actually needed)...

Hi, I am re-purposing this thread as I have now managed to get the installer to load and have installed OS X Sierra to a 240GB SSD (connected via sata). I am now stuck between installation and what should be the first boot of the OS. -v shows booting has halted at: prevent idle sleep list...

Yes, with this card OS X is correctly recognizing all of the card's VRAM as well as it's other specs and the revision number.. Definitely playing nicer with 10.8.5 than the 270x I had been trying. That said, is it possible that this could be due to the HDMI cable possibly being a v1.3 instead...

Thanks for the response. I do have GraphicsEnabler=No in Chameleon's boot config.. is there another flag?

Hi, I recently swapped an EVGA GTX 680 into my system as both an upgrade from a Quadro FX 380 (which was pretty underwhelming) and because it was a lot easier than continuing to fight with the problematic 270x I had initially tried. Anyway, the core part of the system is: HP Z800...

Hey, late response on my part, but thanks for the reply. I ended up grabbing an EVGA GTX 680 which appears to have solved the issues I was having getting to the desktop without boot modifiers. With this card installed I am now left to figure out how to get my second display to show anything...

Thanks for the responses guys! I did manage to get DTGP Method added to the DSDT and got everything to compile, however, I still couldn't get the 270x to work / boot correctly so I gave up on the card and have moved on to a GTX 680.

Hi, The Context: I run an HP z800 workstation with Dual Xeon x5670 6-core processors @2.93GHz and 48GB ECC Registered DDR3 1333 RAM installed (12 x 4GB sticks) etc, etc.. because I run big Pro Tools HD recording sessions and the workstation style system helps with that. Anyway, my installs on...

So as a short update: So far no combination of edited kexts or DSDT injection has seemed to eliminate the issue. The one thing that I had not tried to get past the grey/white screen was the whole sleep/wake thing that various posts have mentioned. (I had not tried it because I seem to have...

I am trying (and so far quite unsuccessfully) to get a Sapphire Dual-X R9 270x to work with OS X 10.8.5 According to this thread / post, the R9 270X should just work with anything above 10.8.3, however, I get nothing but a grey or white screen booting with 10.8.5 normally, and if I boot with -x...

Hi, I have been having some issues getting a Sapphire R9 270X to work properly in OS X 10.8.5. The circumstances surrounding that are posted elsewhere. Anyway: I am trying to apply a DSDT patch that injects info about the graphics card, but the patch requires DTGP Method. I have found a few...
