Hello everybody guys. I have installed Snow Leopard retail 10.6.3 on my laptop (specs listed below) and then upgraded 10.6.7, installed my kexts with Multibeast etc. as described in the guide. I have followed many guide and as a matter of fact everything's smooth during the installation and all. Sometimes happens, though, that my system hangs and then freezes and there's no way to restore it. I have kind of understood it's because of my graphics card. It might be the problem.
By looking in the console messages, the error I get before it freezes is:
Has anyone with my same graphics card experienced the same problem? And if so, how did you solved the problem?
My system is a laptop Asus G53JW, Intel Core i7 740M @1.73GHz, 8GB Ram DDR3 1333 MHz, NVIDIA GTX 460M.
The boot flags are GraphicsEnabler=yes cpus=8 busratio=13. I have tried with idlehalt=0 but this sometimes causes kernel panics.
So... any ideas? Should I provide more informations?
EDIT: I should add that, oddly enough, when I use a programme like Wallsaver, it doesn't freeze although I have some random and short lockups.
