ZosoM3 Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 I'm running a Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3L with a Q6600 2.4GHz CPU and Kalyway 10.5.1. It all runs great with a few quirks. Once quirk is in "About This Mac". It says: Processor: 2.4GHz Unknown In system profiler it says my processor speed, #processors, #cores, amount of L2 cache, memory, bus speed... all correct... but it doesn't list my CPU name like I've seen in other people's list. It should say Intel Core 2 Quad or something. Any ideas on how to fix this? I tried aquamac's technique http://www.s155158671.websitehome.co.uk/sy...profilermo.html but it didn't work for me. Also, anyone know how to change the Boot Rom Version to say something besides "Hack.int.0sh"? I have 2 programs that aren't working for me - Logmein and Mozy. Perhaps this info has something to do with the programs not working? Everything else works great including Parallels with my XP drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marliwahoo Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 go to system/library/coreservices/logiinwindow right click "show package contents" go to contents/resources/english.lproj/aboutthismacstrings make a copy of aboutthismacstrings on you desktop and open with text edit. Find this: "ABOUT_BOX_SINGLE_PROCESSOR_FIELD_FORMAT" = "%@"; EDIT TO THIS: "ABOUT_BOX_SINGLE_PROCESSOR_FIELD_FORMAT" = "2.4GHz Intel Quad Core 2 Duo"; or whatever you want. replace the old one with the new one. Check about this mac. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
