GIGABYTE GA-Z77X-UP5 TH Thunderbolt (Updated to 10.8.2 and MultiBeast 5.2)

[syd]

Just wanted to say thanks for all the tips, esp this one as I've got a 99% identical build.

- I've given up trying to get the iogear bluetooth working with an Apple Trackpad - it doesn't wake from sleep gracefully at all
- I've reset everything on the MO Bios to Optimized Settings for the F11 firmware, no changes from that at all
- I've OC to 4.4 stock voltage
- Getting Geekbench 2 64 bit score of 16240

The only quirk is it sleeps and wakes fine after a restart just fine. But it won't go to sleep again after that. Needs a reboot to reset it.

UPDATE:
- Disable CPU Overvoltage in the Advanced settings fixed the sleep and wake issues
- IOGear BT4.0 now works fine

for bluetooth I use Jabra A320s BT Stereo USB Adaptor v2, it works very well


for sleep is difficult on this motherboard is different according to the type of processor


overclock can cause problem of sleep on some computer
For my part to make it work with my i73770 I must disable the xHCI in bios, after it works perfectly

OK - I might give that a try

I have tried repeatedly by installing a fresh 10.8.2 and then using the combo update to 10.8.3.

Maybe I'm missing something, but is there a reason why you MUST have 10.8.3? Or do you mean that 10.8.2. doesn't work either?

10.8.3 is required for the recent FCP X updates.

I imagine that I'll have to upgrade to 10.8.4 when tat comes out, too.

In meantime, I have no working computer other than my mini that I'm using at the moment.

It really sux. I hope that Alfa returns with a 10.8.3 solution soon!

hi if you are not able to run the 10.8.3, I do not think you'll make it more avaec the 10.8.4


can you give more details about your problem


arrives you start a USB key to install the system?
What's the error that's displayed when you start with-v?


what is the last line or it crashes?

I've identified the culprit:
- Disable CPU Overvoltage in the Advanced settings fixed the sleep and wake issues
- IOGear BT4.0 now works fine
- I didn't need to disable xHCI, in fact I need USB3 so disabling that was not an option, that's set toe ENABLED in Bios

Thanks everyone

Currently working on a 10.8.3 guide. I need to work on one more part then it'll be finished. I also have a guide for 10.8.4 ready for when it's released.
