Update. After updating the BIOS to F14, re-imaging the drive again, and immediately installing Chimera via MultiBeast worked. Was able to restart and boot to the new SSD. After running MultiBeast and configuring the system it works just fine now and holy crap is the new SSD fast! Samsung 840...

It has to be at least mostly valid, with the exception of Chimera not being copied which is expected when cloning, the drive functions fine and OS X works as it should. I can't believe that the clone is failed. Disk Utility also confirms that the disk is fine. I use CCC because it works...

I was just getting ready to reply that I found that same page. So I followed that and now I have a different issue. It would appear that now the BIOS doesn't recognize either SSD as UEFI devices. Not sure what the heck is going on with that. May reset BIOS again. I think however that if I get...

Not to sound ignorant but please explain how I would do this. I'm not sure I've ever done this before.

First I've searched and none of the threads I found helped. Using a Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UD5H, have ML 10.8.3 running fine no issues. I'm trying to migrate from a smaller SSD to a larger SSD. 1. Clone with CCC 2. Run Chimera stand alone immediately after clone, installing on new SSD...

It's actually a GeForce 640 not an ATI card but I think you may be correct. I didn't think to search on that combination of things. After searching I think you gave me the right direction though. It would appear that the 640 card is ML only, not a big deal. Thanks for the help.

Specs: Gigabyte Z77X-UDH5 i5-3570K Kingston Hyper-X 120Gb SSD EVGA GeForce GT640 2Gb I have the Lion USB key as well as 10.7.5 downloaded from the App Store. Using the Lion USB key I can create a functioning Unibeast Installer which after installing BridgeHelper 4.0.1 allows me to...

I'm trying to run a 64bit Win7 VM and I get and error that says I don't have a 64bit CPU which I do Error: However, 64-bit operation is not possible. This host is VT-capable, but VT is disabled. This is usually because VT has been disabled in the BIOS/firmware settings or the host has not been...

Really there is little reason to wait, with this guide and a bit of reading you can have an Ivy rig today. I used the z77-ds3h board and a i5 Ivy chip, picked a vid card off the recommended list. The rest is really up to you. Just read that thread carefully and you'll be good.

I think it comes down to this: How much effort do you want to expend? Reviews are meaningless in this situation, you can find reviews supporting anything positively so as always, a grain of salt. Your doing something that isn't supposed to be done. There is a wealth of information on creating...

Nope no KP's just doesn't see the card or drive. If I can't get this card to work I'm probably going to install an eSATA card instead as the drives have both and the eSATA is faster.

Works as usual, which surprised me quite a bit. Once I migrated over what I needed I gambled and rebooted the iMac and it came up and is working fine.

Just built my IvyHack based on the Gigabyte Z77-DS3H board. I had a Belkin F5U505 Firewire card which some searching suggests that it's a good card however I got nothing. System Profiler sees neither the firewire card or any PCI cards for that matter. Suggestions?

Ok migrated everything over to the IvyHack, backed up what I needed on the iMac and rebooted... Came back up just fine! So that's a bonus, I wonder if whatever BridgeHelper installs isn't already included in 10.7.4? Either I got very lucky or?

Yeah that's what I'm thinking. Well I'm typing this from my IvyHack which is up and running 100% no issues, would it be an issue using Migration Assistant and my TM disk to import everything over to the Hack at this point? BridgeHelper won't screw that data up will it?

So I needed to install BridgeHelper on my USB key and totally screwed up installing it on to my iMac instead. I've searched a bit and found this isn't a real smart thing to do, however many of those threads referenced older versions of OS X. I'm running 10.7.4, is it possible that BH won't do...

I Hacked a Dell OptiPlex 980 this weekend and so far all is great. I added an ATI 5570 1Gb video card for the DVI as the stock VGA is a no go and set the BIOS to AHCI and it was done. Now that I have Lion installed and updated to 10.7.4 I have 2 issues that I'm working on, the App Store and...

Ooh, well that's good to know! Thanks for telling me that I had no idea.
