    Safely Upgrading from 10.6.4 to 10.9

    Well, two years later I still haven't upgraded! To be fair I was attempting this right before my son was born and his birth (and subsequently keeping him alive) superseded all of my other priorities. But now he's two years old and much more independent. I think I can finally devote myself to...

    Would love help upgrading from 10.6.4 to 10.9

    Crap. Sorry about that. I missed a bit of the link. This is my hardware: MB - Gigabyte GA-P55M-UD4 Processor - Intel Core i7-860 2.8 GHz Graphics - EVGA GTX 260 Core 216 RAM - OCZ DDR3 PC3-12800 Gold Low Voltage Dual Channel (4x2GB)

    Safely Upgrading from 10.6.4 to 10.9

    Thanks for the quick response. I did follow the buying guide exactly. Of course the Samsung Spinpoint HD I originally installed isn't available anymore so I was thinking of using this drive: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148840 to clone my startup drive to...

    Would love help upgrading from 10.6.4 to 10.9

    Hey all. I've been doing a lot of reading trying to nail down the best way to make the transition from 10.6.4 to 10.9 and my head is literally swimming. I've read some good articles but also gotten a decent amount of conflicting information, so I thought I'd ask all of you. I would imagine...

    10.6.4 is working great, but I can only boot using iBoot

    As if I had the faintest clue how to edit a DSDT. :) To be honest, I'm not even sure that I'm getting poor performance. I have nothing to judge by since my card, my system and the OS were new all at the same time. I'm really only going on my gut feeling that 900MB of VRAM on a strong...

    10.6.4 is working great, but I can only boot using iBoot

    For sure. I'm staying away from F10. I've read enough now to fear that number. Since then I also managed to get booting from the hard drive, and everything else for that matter working. Turns out the problem was how I ran MultiBeast. I used EasyBeast the first time since my F3 BIOS didn't...

    Decreased gfx performance using Chameleon Gfx Enabler -True?

    I read this disheartening post elsewhere in the forums: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=4256 To quote a small portion: Anyone able to shed some light on why this disparity exists? I'm running an EVGA Superclocked GTX 260 on a P55M-UD4 motherboard and it really bothers me that I might nogt be getting...

    Complete guide to a perfect GA-P55A-UD4P with GTX 260 SLI

    Anyone know the specifics behind what causes this disparity? I'm running a single EVGA GTX 260 on a GA-P55M-UD4 (no p) motherboard, and it really bums me out to think that I might not be getting the full performance I could be from the card. 15 fps vs. 30? That's terrible! Any help anyone...

    10.6.4 is working great, but I can only boot using iBoot

    Got it working! I'll leave the original post up in case it helps anyone. Turns on the issue was my BIOS, or at least the fact that, because my BIOS wasn't up to date I couldn't use the proper DSDT with MultiBeast. I updated to F9 for the p55m-ud4 and then ran MultiBeast with the proper...

    10.6.4 is working great, but I can only boot using iBoot

    Hey all. I've been searching the forums for a while now looking for answers, but none of the existing posts I've found exactly match my situation. Here's my quandary. I installed everything onto a 1TB partition and upgraded to 10.6.4 following Tonymacx86's tutorials and everything is working...
