I'm starting this thread to see how viable it is to merge a gaming laptop with OS X capability. As a gamer I love gaming on the go and as an OS X enthusiast I love my OS X, especially for work and school. But it's hard to game and have OS X together! So I'm putting this thread out there to see...

How do I get Chimera to load instead of Windows 8? -edited Hi. I have searched the forum but all the information is outdated. This is a fresh install of Mountain Lion and Windows 8 on the same HDD. This is the first time I have tried this since the MBR days. The drive is GUID. I installed the...

EVGA Z77 FTW mobo. UEFI. i7-3770K. 32 gigs of RAM. Do I even need a DSDT in this UEFI age? And if so, I'm looking for a guide on how to bust out a dsdt real quick since I just finally booted after installation. The old information was pre-UEFI so I'm not as sure as I was about how to make one...

Dear OS X experts: Right now I'm running off an SSD and the disk space is too low for OS X really. I have been running off of a 10GB partition and it's a headache to install new software, nevermind Lion. So, I'm looking at the possibility of leaving my SSD for applications and moving my...

I have a small SSD that has both Windows and OS X on it. Up until now it has been possible to run Snow Leopard off a 10 GB partition, but I always have to do some hacks to get installers to install apps to my 1TB storage drive (where my home folder is located). Of course I want to upgrade to...

The installer will only let me install to my startup SSD - I have noticed this with iLife too. What is up with this particular feature of os x? Is there a workaround for this?

I installed os x on a 10gb SSD partition. I'm trying to free up disk space. So I installed iLife but it will only install to the startup drive. So I moved GarageBand off just fine with symbolic links. Same with iMovie. My problem at the moment is iPhoto. From what I can tell there are 2 places...

My system halts on startup - screenshot attached. Is there any other information I can give?

Hi all, A couple questions about DSDT. I'm new at this. I read that it is better to create your own DSDT than to use someone else's to prevent problems. So, based on that I set out to make my own. I created one with the GUI tool that is out and then I decompiled it with iasl. I then edited the...

EDIT: I went beyond the Tonymac guide to fine tune my EVGA X58 SLI and I ran into a kernel panic after I changed my /Extra folder. Can you help me troubleshoot my kernel panic? A few posts down I have a full changelist of my post-install fine tuning. Hi all, thanks for stopping by. I'm trying...

Hello.. First, you should get to know me. I am a total noob and i have about a 4% complete idea of what I'm doing. I am trying to get a new system up and running. I already installed following tonymac's guide and my system was booting. I created a new com.apple.boot.plist to try to enable my...

Hi, I followed the iBoot + MultiBeast guide. I'd like to know if I have Chameleon installed. When I boot off the iBoot CD, I of course have Snow Leopard among my options to select. When I select Snow Leopard I do not get a Chameleon boot select screen, instead I get a kernel panic screen. I am...
