Does anyone else have any ideas?

I just want to find a fix for my 670 GC. I can deal with the 2 card thing for a bit... I have 2 NVS 290's. One for each machine

Got up this morning and messed around with it some more and BOOM... started working

Please Post your Chameleon.Boot

In BIOS under "Video Options" select "Option 1" then shut down

Put GTX 670 card in middle X16 slot (slot 4) and my NVS 295 in lower X16 slot (slot 2)

Attached LCD's (I have 2) to HDMI and DVI (the DVI port right next to HDMI as my card has 2 DVI ports)

Start it up with GraphicsEnabler=No and BOOM there it was!

Also if it matters... I set mine as a Mac Pro 5,1 with no issues because the T7500 has 1333Mhz registered ECC memory

hello partner,
Greetings from Egypt

i have Dell precision T7500,
Working like charm (Masha2laah)

EVGA Gtx660

only one processor Intel Zeon Hex Core 12 m cache

1st of all u have to check your chameleon.boot.plist

And check if there is any graphics Boot code

it will be a number like 175237165981276987561897605912039 usually it will be in the end of the plist

u have to remove this code

cuz ur hack will be recognising ur vga drive as a certain Drive as the code tells it

2nd u have to be 10.8.3

then install nvidia drives & Cuda Drives

& Update to 10.8.4 ( u may also update nvidia drivers ) make sure u use the higher boot loader in multibeast
is speeds up the boot time

(Sleep issue For sure disable automatic sleep)

and dont update to 10.8.5

for me i get some freezes on 10.8.5
everytime i start the computer up it freezes after less than 30 minutes

i never tried 2nd processor

the computer is running like charm with full acceleration in adobe programs cs6

only u have to do some gpu sniffer stuff in the programs u use after installing the drivers and making sure it works and identified as the gpu u bought

i think there some boot flag always needed to make the gpu works

if u need to know something if i could help u with my plist contact me

i bought some pci cards like / firewire 800 / usb 3 wich was supported by mac & Pc and also working fine.

i never tried gnu mac supported cards i wish it works..

if any body tried the 2nd processor or gpu supported cards please let me know ...

what i posted was my personal experience with this curtain computer ...
i love this community ......
