I will give it a try later. I have a different brand card. We can compare results.

I suggest you to remove nvidia retail drivers before updating

No problems with the update. I am going to have to re-enable sounds but the computer started right back up.

The only thing I did differently is that I changed my computer from 5.3 to 5,1. I will report back when I have everything going.

Reinstalled the audio driver. Sound works.

It says I need a CUDA update which apparently doesn't exist.

Going to run some speed tests.

Sleep did work! I put it to sleep, waited 10 seconds. Started it back up.

The keyboard and mouse didn't work. I unplugged them (2.0) and re-plugged them and everything worked again. I plugged the USB into the USB(3.0) port and will see if that makes things better.

My Nova score is a little better in general

1645 vs 1669

10.8.2 10.8.3
Ram 230 231
CPU 971 1019 (!)
Gr 404 389 (wrong way)
HW 40 30 (wrong way. I am going to get a faster one)

I will run it again.

I don't know what else to do. I started from scratch, erased my sdd and installed 10.8.3 using Unibeast. Everything went fine, then I installed the GTX 660ti again and got the same error. Looks like this build does not like my card :

So sorry. Is the Graphics in the off position? (I forgot what we had to do in Multi at startup.) Check all the settings again.

Put your BIOS at a slower speed? Slow down the Ram and processor to see if you can get it running?

I tried sleep again. (USB 3.0) This time my music kept playing but the screen did not come back on.

I am going to try sleep again. USB 2.0

Bad news :S
Hope some expert user helps you.

Try default settings on bios, without overclock. MacPro 3.1 also seems better than 5.1

Yeap, GraphicsEnable=0. I also tried to setup my processor to 3.5 and the memory to 1600. Nothing seems to fix this
