Where we've been new at something. Today, I need help. Your help. After using a PC for years, and hours of reformatting, reinstalling, I finally took my brothers advice: my computers work for me, I don't work for them. I bought a Mac mini. But for what I am doing, writing and voice recording, the storage wasn't big enough. Hence my friend convincing me, and then building me this system. It is nice, but there are a few flaws that my ignorance of the Mac OS and this specialty build is leaving me clueless.
1. The fans are loud. I need to quiet them down a lot or it will be heard on all my recordings. I have a Lian Li case B25F.
2. My USB mic, even when the system is totally shut down, still has a light on showing that it is getting power from somewhere.
3. When I first started this Hackintosh, and all my USB's were plugged in, and I shut it down, it would restart on it's own. Since then, I have unplugged all items from 3.0 USB ports, and now only using 2.0 USB. It don't restart as it used to, but something is still not correct.
I am correct in this assumption... yes? Isn't all 3.0 USB backwards compatible with 2.0?
4. I see in Tonymac that there is new downloads for multi beast. Is this something I should download and install or is it only for specific systems? I have 5.2.1
5. I realize these are many questions and not posted in correct areas. But I assure I will get better at this site as well as my new Hack, and will post and operate... at least better. And hopefully soon!
