is the graphics card recognized/supported? (NVIDIA card)

 

[silviubs]

only using integrated card selection from bios, haven't tried both at the same time... optimus

 

[kissandtellMAC74]

Please try and let us know if Optimus works

I will also try it with the Unibeast Method on my Aspire 5755G, so i'll let you know how it works for me.

You said WLAN is working, but is also AirDrop displayed in the Finder?
Isn't it said that Apple added USB 3.0 Support in ML ? Cause the new Retina MacBook also got USB 3.0.

 

[silviubs]

NVIDIA doesn't seem to work, at least for me

@Grip_Runners - i tried this method http://www.tonymacx86.com/feature-r...3-0-driver-non-intel-controllers-testing.html
and yes, air drop appears in sidebar

Hmm i recently tried to install OSX on my Aspire 5755G but I do not get into the installation window.
The Apple circle is turning and then stops, how it looks like when its soon ready but nothing happens, even not in verbose mode...it freezes in the loading picture.
i switched into integraded graphic card.
Has anyone the same problem or btw an answer?

 

[silviubs]

try using only integrated card and with GraphicsEnabler=no
i also got a kp when installing from ps2 kext so used another one instead

 

[Grip_Runners]

hmm still dont get into the installation

i tried it now with only integrated graphic and "GraphicsEnabler=No" but the same problem...
I reinstalled the UniBeast USB Installer now twice, even on a MacBook, so I think the Installer is not the problem.

Well for me works...

try to have the same extra folder contents as i did

inside the extra leave org.chameleon.Boot.plist and smbios.plist(the one with MacBookPro8,1)
themes
extensions (here i had - AppleACPIPS2Nub, ApplePS2Controller, FakeSMC, NullCPUPowerManagement, JMicron36xATA, IO80211Family)

you can find link for all the kexts i used in my 1st post

good luck.
