    Achieving Native Resolution on Startup: Edit your VESA Tables (AMD/Nvidia)

    Because nothing has been done as far as VESA patches for a very long time, people would cheat by 'fixing' the Chameleon themes for widescreen by doing a horizontal stretch. The theme.plist contains keys for the X and Y positions of all the icons on the screen, maybe you can try by adjusting the...

    Achieving Native Resolution on Startup: Edit your VESA Tables (AMD/Nvidia)

    I know this is a bit late but usually the underscan has to do with the HDMI signal coming from the graphics card. Its the reason that you have to adjust the scanning on a LCD TV when you hook up your PC to it via HDMI, the cards put out horrible signals for some unknown reason. Ask Nvidia and...

    7Mb of VRAM??? AMD HD7870

    Remove fakesmc plugins. Unsupported hardware for them as well as a known issue with 10.8.2 and up. Try booting in -s on your drive. If you cant get through, burn rBoot and boot from that with the '-s' flag. Once you get the prompt, do the following: fsck -fy mount -uw / mv...

    5 Monitors (HD4000 + 2x GT 610) -- GT 610s work, HD 4000 doesn't --- HELP!

    Seems that power management does not like the card combo you have. To confirm this, run the following command from single user "-s" mode. This is a temporary fix and will break sleep for your system fsck -fy mount -uw / mv /System/Library/Extensions/AppleGraphicsPowerManagement.kext...

    FakeSMC + Dual Monitor Problem

    Try Duckweed for your framebuffer and keep AtiPorts=4. If this doesn't work, drop a link here to the EXACT card and I can see what i can do for you. I have a 6870, made by sapphire, and HDMI wouldn't work with any framebuffer personalities. My last resort was patching the framebuffer for my...

    Achieving Native Resolution on Startup: Edit your VESA Tables (AMD/Nvidia)

    Why would you mess with your VBIOS!? If you are anything like me, you are probably nagged by the fact that when you start your lovely hackintosh, instead of a neat and undistorted apple logo, you get something that looks like it has been flattened by a hammer. This was the last time i was...

    Is my Lap top ready for this experiment?

    Nope. Intel HD Graphics that are built in to the Nehalem mobile cpu's do not work. They should in theory, as they were in the 15 and 17 inch macbook pros of 2010, but they automatically call up the nvidia drivers too, as this chip used graphics switching in real macs, and the nvidia drivers will...

    DVI port flipping

    Nice!

    DVI port flipping

    This is due to the framebuffer in the driver not matching the framebuffer in your VBIOS byte for byte. Its usually a thrown off SenseID. For those who feel ballsy and know their way around hex patching, here is the guide, and despite it being for the 4000 series, the framebuffers are still...

    Kernel Panic if not booted in Verbose

    Ok folks, I am no newcomer to hackintoshes, and have never ran into such a problem. I get kernel panics traced back to the kernel (kernel_task) if I don't use -v at startup. While a minor problem to some, this REALLY nags me after patching the VESA tables in my VBIOS in order to support...

    Just got 42 inch monitor need help on what gpu will be good to run at full res

    These do accept 1080i from the computer. The issue is, after it recieves the 1080i signal, it compresses it to WVGA, so it is going to look AWFUL. I would suggest a GeForce 9400 GT if you are looking for something uber-cheap, but it wont be good for much more then web browsing and videos. I...

    Good Bluetooth experience.

    A lot of bluetooth cards will work, somewhat with mac, and sleep is spotty by OS X revision. This is where the Mac bluetooth board excels, as it is completely native. EDIT: Note that notshy has an awesome guide to potentially patching for sleep/wake functionality with bluetooth. The guide...

    iBoot or iBoot Legacy?

    Chimera, it is all of the chameleon trunk brought into a boot loader. It does it all.

    GA-H67N-USB3-B3 Audio "Snow" (Static)

    Your hdac is screwed up. If anything should normally be staticy, it would be an analog connection to the computer. But, because you are using hdmi, which encodes and decodes the audio, there should be little if not no feedback. I suggest you return to manufacturer or place of purchase, whichever...
