Did someone find the Display Port working with OSX? I was considering that build too, and I would like to use the HD4000 hires output.

Thanks for your work and for putting things straight. I have not seen such a good summary on PSUs for a long time. Especially your considerations about maybe 1500W overkill PSUs are very helpful.

Is that at HDD boot? Try booting with -x, repair permission with DU. Than boot with -f. Serveral IOPCI drivers try to load, but there should just be one. You could also boot from CD and remove mistakenly installed stuff.

AMD Radeon 4xxx are supposed to work with Chameleon RC5 v747. Did you try?

Sounds reasonable to me, one OS - one drive. I recently prepared a boot stick with Unibeast and installed on my backup drive to have a look at Lion. No problem, but I didnt keep 10.7. Chameleon will show the drives all right and you can always use your BIOS boot selector F9 or F11, depends on...

I recall a similar issue. You have to re-install networking kexts from your 10.6.3 installation or find out the LAN device ID with System Info.app and search for a 10.6.8 compatible kext. You might also boot with a GParted Live CD to find out the exact type of LAN chip with Hardware Info.

I am using CCC occasionally. Prepare a spare empty HFS+ formatted drive and let CCC make a clone of the complete boot disk. Install a bootloader on the cloned disk e.g. with Chimera 1.7.0. Boot from the cloned disk, to be sure your backup drive does work. If something goes wrong with your boot...

You can not use a retail DVD to boot a PC. Try the iBoot CD from download section and remember to swap disks after pressing F5. Good luck!

Oh, I see. Than I hope forum rules let me tell you to look at the Hardware Compatibility List 10.6.8, Asus. There is a P6T Deluxe.

Did you read here too? http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index. ... pic=208724 Its not exactly your board, but maybe you can get the idea. The Chameleon bootloader is used by lots of setup flavours, including iBoot. iBoot let me have my first OSX on my Intel box, i´m still impressed that...

I would try the Chimera package for a bootloader and Chameleon Wizard to play with the options. Explore the iBoot mkext to find out what is loaded from CD. Kext Wizard can do that fine. Make a picture from you non booting box after starting with -v The gurus here will know what is wrong.

Sorry for not replying for such along time. HDMI audio and line out should be possible with VoodooHDA. If VoodooHDA ckokes when driving both devices, it seems line out audio can be anabled with AppleHDA, but a specially edited plist is needed. I did not dive into that, personally.

For your sound issue, you might run System Info.app and post the two screenshots for devices and kexts. Maybe someone can help. Only one kext should be loaded for your soundchip. I saw some post telling how to install a bootloader in EFI partition from a GNU-Linux Live CD - could that be a...

Could it be the HDD is one of those modern 4K sectored devices were you cant write to the EFI partition from OSX? Even if it was a graphics issue, the Mac should boot into some default screen without QE/CI, if the installation was all right.

Guess I installed my three Hackis a dozen times each. Most of I ruined my setup by installing something without proper knowledge. Try to get rid of the non working kexts or DSDT or make a new clean install. For the bootloader try Chimera and make sure to target it to the desired HDD. For your...

GParted Magic is free and should be able to resize partions as well. I have to admit, I did that with NTFS only so far. Do not touch the EFI partition anyway.

Afaik the very cheap "three dollar" BT adapters do have issues. Frequency hopping or something similar is unsupported. Many affordable adapters work with OSX natively, like my EDIMAX EB-DGC1 You will have to restart your Hacki after plugging in, to let the system know its there. ;)

Yes, Ihave seen that after every major system upgrade too. As the info says "Kernel Extension Info: No Kext Loaded" you might try to reinstall the proper kernel with KextWizard or something similar.

In some cases it helped reducing RAM to 4 or even 2 GB. The RAM can be added again as installation has been finished. On the bootloader screen, type "-v" to track down the nature of the failure. Write down the last lines or take a picture and post it. Someone here may know a fix already.

Dual booting with dedicated HDDs would clearly be my choice. On the other hand VMWare for OSX does pretty much everything I can think of. Alas, Iam no gamer. If you should go for VM, you might be better off with a OSX host and a Windows7 guest, as virtualization of OSX on a Win7 host does not...
