Problem Resolved. Turns out it might be a Windows 8 issue on hybrid boot (a little odd because previously I did not face such an issue) Here's what I did: 1) Boot back into my Windows partition 2) Press Ctrl+R (brings up the "Run" dialogue) 3) Enter "shutdown /p" (this shuts down your computer...

Hi, I am really confused right now. Everything was working perfectly fine until i replugged my GPU because the computer wasn't detecting it. Now the GPU is responding fine and I can boot into Windows 8 perfectly. However, I've got an ntfs-fs Windows Hibernating sort of warning just now which...

Cool, I don't intend to OC my GPU in OS X anyway. I have OC-Ed my CPU to 4.3GHz, but I have no idea how to monitor it in OS X using iStat Menus. Any ideas?

Yea I wasn't doing anything much just now. I launched Photoshop, Lightroom and Final Cut Pro, now I'm getting 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 34, 35 and 37. This is correct right? Thanks so much again! Btw, if I want to Overclock my Graphics Card and Processor, will there be any problems on this end for...

nice. sleep is working all fine now, currently ran back the same stuff in the MSRDumper thread and am getting this. Is SpeedStep working like that? Thanks so much for all the help, really appreciate it :)

cool, thanks for the support. Repairing permissions and Rebuilding of Caches are done in Disk Utility right? If not, how do you rebuild caches and repair permissions?

I selected these options in MultiBeast:

Hi I ran the instructions given and all i got was this I'm using a 3770K-i7, understand this is a guide for Sandy Bridge but I guess it should work for Ivy Bridge too? Is my SpeedStep working?

Done as you have mentioned and I tried kicking it into sleep mode; doesn't work. However leaving it there long enough enters sleep mode just fine; but the CPU and all are obviously running and not in sleep mode. How do I check if SpeedStep is now working??

thank you, got it working! :)

I've done that, downloaded it off the site, copied the .CAP file to the root of the thumbdrive. I flashed the BIOS, it was done in less than 2 minutes. I came back into Macintosh and tried to kick it into Sleep Mode and it doesn't work, I can't wake it back up from sleep. Any indications for...

Sincere apologies, I have now included my system in my profile :) Just to add on to the question, I have noticed I cannot use my Crucial M4 SSD as a default boot drive in BIOS. It's very odd for me to have to keep hitting F8 just to use Mac (I have dual-booted with Windows). Any ideas?

Hi I have installed everything and they work fine. But I'm not trying to set up the patched BIOS, I downloaded the .CAP file from the site that came from the thread you provided. However, when I did the USB Flashback, the USB Flashback Indicator remains solid blue; indicating that the BIOS is...

Pardon me, this might me out of the "Buying Advice" topic but how do I flash my BIOS? Apologies, I'm really new to this :crazy:

thanks for all your help man, going down tomorrow to get the parts to build. Really excited :)

Hi, so it should be simple to enable sleep/speedstep by installing the kexts? Will it be a viable and sustainable solution? I heard this problem exists for all ASUS Motherboards. Thanks for getting back to me about the software part, will read it, great guide! :)

Update: I have decided to go with the ASUS Sabertooth as mentioned by Going Bold Power Supply : Corsair TX 650W RAM: RIP-JAWS-X 1600MHz 2x8GB CL9 Case: Antec One Cooler: Cooler Master 212 Hyper EVO Graphics Card: GeForce 660TI PE DDR5 SSD: Crucial M4 256GB HDD: 1TB Caviar Black...

right, thanks man, sorry I made a mistake with the RAM it should be 2x8GB of RAM. I have a problem with getting the UD5H here in my location, don't seem to sell it, only the Z77X-UP5TH. Are there any other Motherboards of the same price points? Thanks for the heads-up for the SSDs, I've...

wow sure, thanks I'd take a look :) I think I kind of have gone down to the local stores and asked around and came up with this setup, is there anything missing or can be corrected over here? Are all of these components compatible? Power Supply : Corsair TX 650W RAM: RIP-JAWS-X 1600MHz...

to be honest the size of the tower doesn't really matter to me, because I'd be putting it under my desk anyway because my desk does not have too much space. Thanks for your suggestion though! :thumbup:
