Did you try booting with PCIRootUID=0 ? By default multibeast is booting with pcirootuid=1 which also prevents my quadro 5000 from working correctly!

Just thoough of something, there's an option in chimera to load a nvidia rom, maybe you could try a pc version quadro 4000 rom?

Day 1 of first Hackintosh.

GA-X58A-UD5/intel i7 970
QUADRO 4000 for Mac
24GB DDR3
2x512GB SSD SATA3

Monitor Apple Cinema Display w/DVI

Upon starting the Computer, I do not get a signal to the Monitor, just a black screen with no boot information.

Any ideas on where to proceed? A common response is to have the PC version instead. Is there no way to use the mac version to its full capabilities?


******EDIT: Sorry I see this is post installation section********

I have a same problem. I had a idea, if I buy MAC card, than I don't get problem, and I don't need hacking it.
But I bought it, and I don't bring back.
I have OpenCL1.1.
I tried without Graphic Enabler, OSX didn't boot up.
I tried PCIRootUID=1, OSX didn't boot up.
I found Q4000ORIG.rom file for PC, can I use it for MAC card with org.chameleon.Boot.plist, or I need save my ROM file under Windows.
How can I save down?
Thx.

Try activating it with graphics strings, aqua mac has some threads about it. Also there are apps you can use...EFI studio comes to mind, osx86tools as well (although lion support isn't there...)

There is only a PC version of the quadro 5000. The only thing i had to do, was installing multibeast, setting the kernelflag "PCIRootUID=0" and installing the OpenCL Fermi fix, which also comes with multibeast.

If you don't know how to edit kernel flags: google for chameleon bootloader kernel flags
OR:

go to your root directory and open your "Extra" folder. There should be a file namend "org.chameleon.Boot.plist". open it and edit the kernel flags.

i'll do it, but nothing to do!!! =(((

with PCIRoot=1 don't boot
with PCIRoot=0 boot but don't works at 100% and with or without the FIX is the same!

=(

I have saved my EEPROM file from PNY Q4000MAC.
70.00.44.00.00
I tried to add it in org.chameleon.Boot.plist:

<key>UseNvidiaROM</key>
<string>Yes</string>
<key>VideoROM</key>
<string>/Extra/NvidiaQuadro4000MAC.ROM</string>
<key>VBIOS</key>
<string>Yes</string>

If I boot up, than I see "unable to load rom file...", and OSX wasn't start.
Any idea?
