Hello everybody..!! I wasn't so lucky with Snow Leopard with my specs, due to my GTS 450 issues. But now with Lion everything works great.
I had several failures with Lion when I used MutliBeast and DSDT, then I've discovered the best way to get it done.
1-Once you are done with xMove + MultiBeast and booted to Lion (if it's a fresh installation), run Multibeast and apply EasyBeast Install along with System Utilities and reboot to Lion again (Yes, I'm not kidding) .
2- Now apply your DSDT with System Utilities (ONLY) and reboot.
3- Now install your Audio, Network and USB 3.0 individually (ALC8xxHDA+AppleHDA RollBack) + (Realtek Gigabit Ethernet 2.0.6) + (USB 3.0 - NEC/Renesas) every time with System Utilities.
That's all, and now I'm running my Lion for days without a single freeze or kernel panic with full support for my GTS 450.
The only thing that didn't work with me so far is (Sleep). and I think I should do my effort to get it work properly.
My next move is Overclocking my CPU and RAM to meet my old settings with CPU 3.8GHz and RAM 1890Hz.
Regards,
