Hi!
just finished setup a 7010 with 3770. All went smooth thanks to this excellent guide.
CPU power management, audio, ethernet all work fine.
At the very last restart though - and all reboots after that - a strange thing is happening. PC seems to hang after post. There is a black screen and only if i disconnect, wait 5 secs and reconnect DP cable. screen shows clover and immediatelly it boots as it should.
Could it be i forgot some little detail?
I don't have a second DP cable to test or any adapter for that matter. Truth is up until booting without unibeast USB it was booting perfectly fine.
Any ideas?
Caniggia,
Which DP port are you using? I had a similar issue. POWER OFF. Unplug A/C from unit. Press the POWER BUTTON and hold for 10 seconds. Put the DP cable into the port furthest from the power supply - not sure they are labelled (but DP 1). Power on the MONITOR first, then the computer (especially if you are using a DP to HMDI cable). Also make sure fully seated.
Try booting with the UNIBEAST first, and once you get to the desktop - re-apply of your KEXTS from the guide and make sure you use re-do this step:
B. Download Kext Utility (attached below) Run it to repair permissions and rebuild caches
You'll know it is finished when you see the quit button appear in the lower right of the window.
I have seen instances where something in the machine gets confused as to which DP port is actually in use. It did it to me too.
