Ok...not really sure what I've done, but I'm now able to boot to the desktop without any arguments. I can do this with the nVidia web driver and the embedded driver. I've tested this with 650 and 610 cards. I still have the problem of the GUI freezing every 10+ seconds or when I open...

Hello all, I'm trying to get my old HP xw8600 upgraded from 10.8.5 to something more current. I've used Unibeast 5.2.0 and Multibeast 7.5.0 and have 10.10.5 installed. I've was able to get past the embedded nVidia driver desktop crashes and install Webdriver 346.02.03f01. The desktop...

Hello all, I have recently screwed up my previous 10.9.1 install and have tried to install (clean wipe) 10.9.2 and 10.10 onto my HP xw8600. Both OS's show the same behavior where the system only boots to the grey screen and never beyond that to the log in options. I have found that safemode...

So has anyone been able to upgrade their screen to HD+ (1600x900)? The only screen I've found to purchase is here: http://www.laptop-lcd-screen.co.uk/shop/HP-COMPAQ-PROBOOK-6570B-15.6-HDPLUS-LAPTOP-SCREEN__32595.asp Thanks!

I do have Soundflower installed, but nothing else like Boom. I am using Chrome. I'll try Opera for a while and see if I have the same issue. Thanks!

I've been very happy with my Probook 6570b running 10.9.2. I've recently found that when I play a YouTube video that lasts longer than a couple of minutes, the audio starts getting staticky. Restarting the video may help along with restarting the OS, but the static still comes back. I've also...

FYI...just disabling 1394 in the BIOS did the trick. The SD card slot is now working. THANKS!

FYI...same process worked great for my 6579b with chameleon. No issues.

Thanks...I'll give it a try when I'm in front of the system again. What is the specific kext that is needed?

I've got 10.9.1 working great on my 6570b. I plugged in a SD card into the on-board reader, but it's not recognized by the OS. Does anyone have this working? If so, is there a guide to getting this done? Also, I've not had an opportunity to try the ExpressCard slot. Does anyone have this...

Follow these instructions: http://www.osx86.net/view/2746-voodoohda_2.8.4_pkg_installer.html Pay attention to this section: Save settings of VoodooHDA.prefPane by adding /Applications/VoodooHdaSettingsLoader.app to Login Items... After adding the VoodooHdaSettingsLoader.app to the Login...

Here's how I did it: Create a My--Hack install flash drive with Mt. Lion. Set the BIOS to defaults then change the storage type to IDE. Also disable Network Boot and SAS ROM for faster boot ups. Boot off the flash drive and get to the screen that gives you the Menu Bar. Go to Utilities/Disk...

I've got an HP xw8400 running 10.8.4, onboard audio with VooDoo 2.8.4 worked great. I put in a Asus Geforce GT 610 and now my onboard audio is no longer listed as an audio device and I only see HDMI as an option. I don't know that I'll ever need to use HDMI audio, it would be nice to have...

Awesome! Got it working on my xw8600 with very little tweaking! Set BIOS to IDE storage controller, booted with My Hack USB flash drive, rebooted....successful launch! The only thing not working was the Audio and NIC's. I used MultiBeast to install the latest VooDoo to get the audio working...

Would a Atheros card for a 4530s work?

So, what kind of success has there been with 6560b Probooks? Any known issues? Thanks! EDIT: Never mind...just found the search button. Please make the search link larger and easier to find.

I guess you're right. The only draw back is this is a HP refurb and they give a refund only due to stocking reasons. And now they are running very low on any stock of 4530s'. Guess I'll just RMA it. Better to do that then have a sketchy system.

After about 28 hrs of no lag...it showed up for a few minutes. The only thing I did that was different was turn on "Show battery status in menu bar". I warm booted, cold booted, turned off battery status, rebooted with the power adapter disconnected and the lag finally stopped...

OK...listen to this. After checking the Advanced Format I decided to put the 10.8.2 backup image on the system. I started poking around and I've found that the system hasn't displayed any lag yet. I'm keeping my fingers crossed. The only thing I did that would follow over from Windows to...

Big Donkey, I decided to check the Advanced Format...the drive is set to= NO. How would I begin to tackle this problem? Do I need to format the drive in some special way? Will the Advanced Format hold over to a HFS+ formatting for installing ML? Do you believe this would actually help...
