[Updated] Stork's Thunderbolt Build: i5-3570K | GA-Z77X-UP5-TH | GTX 650 Ti | Mavericks I realize that not everybody will want to do this. But, the easiest way to fix sound is via a USB sound adapter. It works OOTB and is just plug and play. Works on both Windows and Mac and you'll never...

[Updated] Stork's Thunderbolt Build: i5-3570K | GA-Z77X-UP5-TH | GTX 650 Ti | Mavericks Yosemite is working perfectly for me with an almost identical build to yours. The only thing I can't figure out is why audio won't work. Any thoughts or suggestions? :banghead:

[Updated] Stork's Thunderbolt Build: i5-3570K | GA-Z77X-UP5-TH | GTX 650 Ti | Mountain Lion I received a new BT dongle (The IOGear one) and it works perfectly. Both the keyboard and trackpad wake from sleep and connect instantly. Thanks again for your help - it looks like my old dongle...

[Updated] Stork's Thunderbolt Build: i5-3570K | GA-Z77X-UP5-TH | GTX 650 Ti | Mountain Lion I have the same BT dongle that you listed in your OP and it is connected to my monitor's hub. This hub gets power while the pc is sleeping because I can use my wireless logitech mouse that has a...

[Updated] Stork's Thunderbolt Build: i5-3570K | GA-Z77X-UP5-TH | GTX 650 Ti | Mountain Lion For starters, I want to say that this guide is amazing and very helpful! But, I have one issue... My computer sleeps fine and wakes from sleep fine using a wired keyboard. But, I would like to know...

Just to reiterate - it is imperative that you have a CPU heatsink! Check this website for low profile heatsinks. http://www.frostytech.com/top5_lowprofile_heatsinks.cfm

The Wifi/bluetooth card that came with my motherboard didn't work for my hack. But, I purchased a Targus USB bluetooth adapter like tonymacx86 recommends in his builds and it has worked perfectly. I suggest trying it - I got it for under $10.

Great information! I changed this and it made a huge difference, thanks! :clap:

I had the same problem a while back. It occurred after adding my third HD. I booted and it gave me the same error - I would click out of it and it would keep coming back. I tried most of the same things you did without a fix. Eventually I shut down my computer, turned off my PSU, and...

Your post got me to thinking that maybe it was something wrong with Mountain Lion. So, I tethered with 4GLTE on my phone and that worked super fast. Which initially made me think it was the wireless router. I ruled that out eventually and messed with my settings in Network in System...

That didn't fix the problem. The problem was there before I had installed Windows though. I'm considering just building my own Wifi card. Could I do this and use the Mac wifi card for ML and then just keep the other card for Windows?

Bump. I would really like to resolve this - I currently have to use Windows more than I would like due to slow OSX internet.

My Windows 8 is the same way, because it put its boot manager on the same large partition instead of a small partition like Windows 7. I have yet to figure out how to fix this. I have a Gigabyte motherboard though and just hit F12 for boot menu before Chimera even boots. It will show "Windows...

What do you mean, "only with OSX HD?"

I have an ethernet driver from Multibeast - but I don't think that should effect Wifi (unless I'm wrong).

I have the TP-Link Wireless N Dual Band PCI Express Adapter with 3 x 2dBi Antenna (TL-WDN4800) recommended by Tonymacx86. But, for some reason this card functions extremely slowly in Mountain Lion. I get download speeds of 1.5 Mbps with pings over 500 ms. On Windows 8 with the same card and...

Thanks everyone. If only I would've thought this through better initially - I would just buy a different keyboard that works for BIOS if I didn't just spend 60 some bucks on the Apple wireless keyboard. I have found some ridiculously small full keyboards, but nothing just for the BIOS. Oh...

Yes and no. I guess a Numpad could work for selecting the boot option in Chimera (I'm not sure). But what I'm basically looking for is a super small USB keyboard. Or a USB keyboard just for use in BIOS - what I mean by this is it has maybe the F1-12 keys, delete, enter, error, etc. Anything...

This is probably a weird question and most people probably won't have any need for this whatsoever. I have my build up and running 100%! I'm very pleased with it actually. My problem is that I currently use wireless Apple keyboard and trackpad. I was wondering because I sometimes boot into...

I had the same problem recently. My problem was that my ethernet drivers were not installed. Apple apparently needs you to have an ethernet driver for the App Store to work. To see if this is your problem and to fix it, follow these instructions. -> Click the apple in the top left corner ->...
