    Install Chimera onto fresh Lion WITHOUT Snow LEOPARD [Guide]

    This was a tremendous help. Thank you! I realize there may be some other approaches floating around here, which I haven't caught up with, but this enabled me to recover my system when I was moving partitions around to get Lion over to the SSD that had been the boot drive for SL. Anybody here...

    Mac OS X 10.7.1 Update - The Official Thread

    I never did hear back from those guys at Zoom. I see a reference to a Jabra adapter in Tony's new post on the Mini-Mac so maybe that's the recommended adapter? I ended up going back to Micro Center and picking up an IOGEAR GBU421 BT 2.1 adapter. This was the only other one they had that noted...

    Mac OS X 10.7.1 Update - The Official Thread

    I'm having the same problem with my Bluetooth connection. Was just using a Class 2 Zoom 4322 USB BT dongle in Snow Leopard. Running a socket 1366 Core i& on Gigabyte UD3R. Working great. Now in Lion, have to delete and add BT mouse again each time I boot into Lion. Contacted Zoom support...

    ATI 5770 and Apple 27"

    Hmmm...false alarm on the icons. I keep all my tech files and installers for the network on a Win machine in the computer room. Turns out my beloved cache of icons got corrupted and are reading as "0KB" each, so no wonder Mac OS didn't know what to make of them. Fortunately I have a backup.

    ATI 5770 and Apple 27"

    Yeah, I appreciate the screen grabs. Gave me a chance to see those ATI Enablers people had referenced but left me scratching my head in 3.3. Got my drives working, but still no sound. Installed the Realtek kexts but guess I have to try a VooDoo kext. Can't find anything in the BIOS other...

    ATI 5770 and Apple 27"

    Thanks again for your tips. I'm finding this is kind of like many other DIY processes. You come into it with a some previous experience/knowledge and so you sort of 'start in the middle' and work your way outward. It's amazing how a component as seemingly 'simple' as a burner/ROM drive can...

    ATI 5770 and Apple 27"

    Update: Happy to report things have progressed. Am booting directly into OS X. Having followed Tony's guide and used the preconfigured DSDT seems all I was really missing in Multibeast was - Drivers & Bootloaders/Bootloaders/chameleon 2.0 RC5 - ATI Experimental A post clued me in but just...

    ATI 5770 and Apple 27"

    MeqTrader: Apologies... I've been looking at so many posts I've gotten different configs confused (and I guess I'm not paying close enough attention). Got you confused with someone else who had the Gigabyte board. But I'm definitely interested in all minutae regarding success with the XFX HD...

    ATI 5770 and Apple 27"

    Thanks for feedback. I think my addendum about the P6T may have confused things a bit. It's my Win7 PC. Have one at home and a couple in the office. Not pivotal to me here. I wasn't concerned about its fitness for use in a Hackintosh. Just used it in my initial test for proof-of-concept...

    ATI 5770 and Apple 27"

    immapc: Thanks for the input. As this is my first Hack, I have to confess that I didn't do as much research on the video card component of this set up as I probably should have, although it sounds like this card is a reasonable choice for achieving dual display. I saw some other references to...

    ATI 5770 and Apple 27"

    MeqTrader: Forgot to note that I've got an ASUS P6T Deluxe noted in my profile, which I made a successful quick test Hack on (with only a basic video config) when I signed up, but I am in fact building the new system based on the GA-X58A-UD3R.

    ATI 5770 and Apple 27"

    MeqTrader, I have the same mobo and video card and was unable to get a signal to my display when trying my new OS X install. (I'm using a VGA monitor with adapter to set up the basic config but will ultimately be driving (2) 20" ACDs, however they are in use at the moment so I don't have access...
