I didn't, I may give it another go soon.

You can do both, for clean install, run disk utility and wipe the OSX partition before installing.

Thanks for the advice. I looked a bit deeper into geekbench scores, on there website it shows averages. and I'm within 1000 of them. So I guess the people I saw with higher scores were using the 64-Bit version. MT

I've done my research but am still a bit confused about DSDT's. I've flashed a patched BIOS to my Asus P8Z77V-LE. I extracted and complied my DSDT, and copied it to the /Extra folder. But it seemed to do nothing? I used samisnakes guide, but there was no patches available on the website...

Cheers I'll give it a go. MT

I have been trying to get mountain lion working on my laptop. Installation was pretty flawless after doing: -x -v "GraphicsEnabler"="No". But the problem I'm having is booting in safe mode, displays my desktop on the laptop display. But booting without safe mode, I am only able to get a...

Try using the on board graphics and see if you can get to the installer then you can know if its your graphics card thats causing the spinning issue.

What kexts are you using?

I belive those cards use realtek chipsets. Try installing a realtek wifi kext

Also you could buy a snow leopard disk and install that first.

You can add " PCIRootUID=0" to your boot plist. I belive there is an option in multibeast.

You need to install a bootloader from multibeast. Using easybeast; or if you just want to install the boot loader its called chimera.

Try unplugging all usb devices after you start the installer.

I'm not an expert on this but: Make sure the app is in the applications folder. Make sure your using a empty USB stick that is formatted according to the instructions and that it is ATLEAST 8gb in size. Try mounting the images inside the mountain lion installer so they appear on the...

Its a graphics card issue, there are fixes listed here: http://www.tonymacx86.com/108-mountain-lion-installation-tips.html I had a similar problem with a GTS250 - My problem wasn't listed but removing my HDMI to DVI connector fixed the problems. Thread here -...

FAT32 has a max file size of 4GB.It's a old technology so its not the best choice. I kept mine formatted to NTFS. You can read NTFS from mac but not write, you can get software to write to it. Sharing iTunes library and file is pretty easy that way.

Your motherboard uses ALC892. Using multibeast to install ALC892 should be fine. I'm not sure what to exactly check, but last time I used it i think i had to check two boxes for my ALC chip.

I'm not entirely sure why it does that; if its realtek kext your using, there are two different kexts available. You could try the other one.

See if you can boot using iBoot or Unibeast. Id personally recommend using multibeast. As it contains kexts that are mandatory for optimal system performance. If it dought; use the Easybeast option from multibeast first.

Your SSD may have died but I would personally try to format the SSD, with the SSD only installed inside the machine. and use Unibeast and boot into the installer and use the disk utility there. If it doesn't work, try formatting it in windows; as NTFS again. and check the health of the drive...
