Hello,

My Hackintosh used to freeze seconds after startup so I changed a few things in multibeast and after that, I wasn't able to even get into the system. I reinstalled Yosemite on to my Hackintosh and restarted. It worked fine the first day or two, but it is freezing again. Seconds after startup the system locks up. The screen is still on, but frozen. The system is also still on. This was something small I noticed, but when I am booting into the system with the tonymacx86 logo on the screen, in the top left it says 8053 mb of ram. it should be 8192 mb, right? If anyone could help me fix this freezing problem that would be great.

Thanks!

Here is my system and installation settings:

System:
- Gigabyte Z87 D3H Motherboard
- Crucial Ballistix Sport XT 8GB (4GB x 2GB)
- Geforce Gt 740 GPU
- Corsair RM 650 PSU
- Fractal Design R5 Case
- Kingston SSDNow 240GB SSD
- TP-Link WDN 4800 Wifi Card

BIOS Settings (from edenpulse's build http://www.tonymacx86.com/user-buil...7-4790-gtx-770-16gb-yosemite-10-10-1-a.html):

Thanks! I set the memory multiplier or something like that (i'm new) to 18 instead of 16, and set the XMP to profile 1. It seems to be working, I will keep you updated. Thanks again!:D
