Asus EN GTX275 dual dvi Snow leopard 32 bit

[Honeyburton]

Hi all! I;ve made my vie card fully working now in my hackintosh and i'am really happy!

Thanks to all who is working on making hackintoshers life easier and noob friendly. I would like to post here my guide on how to make gtx 275 work with two monitors full QE-CI.

 

Let's start!

 

First of all my specs:

 

Snow Leopard 10.6.2 32 bit

 

CPU: core i7 920 2.66 Ghz

Mobo: Gigabyte EX-58-UD3R

Video: Asus EN GTX275

DDR3: Ballistix tracer PC3-12800 cl-8

 

 

List of the things needed to succeed:

 

GTX275SnowLeo pack which is based on the one by monsterj here http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php...p;#entry1338125

 

Steps

 

I.Preparation:

Go to /System/Library/Extensions/ and find

 

*NVDANV50Hal.kext

*NVDAResman.kext

 

Copy them to your Desktop. Then open each info.plist in them and add your device id property there as shown on the screenshots. The device id could be found in About -> More info... -> Graphics/ Displays -> Device ID (also shown on screenshot).

 

Mine is 0x05e6 , suppose yours is the same.

 

(just to be sure i installed a patch by netkas http://netkas.org/?p=107 but i consider thi step optional as your EFI string will do the same).

 

II. Main dish

 

1. Open the pack you just downloaded.

 

2. Get rooty: Use gfxutil to get your pciroots for the efi string, paste to terminal:

/Users/*/Desktop/GTX295SnowLeo/gfxutil -f display

*is your username

 

Use gfxutils output for your gpu's pciroot, it will read something like this:

PciRoot(0x1)/Pci(0x3,0x0)/Pci(0x0,0x0)

 

 

3. Edit dualpcb.plist or card.plist to include your pci roots.[/i]

Open it in TextEdit and change the values to match yours.

 

 

4. Use gfxutil to change your xml into hex, write this to terminal:

/Users/*/Desktop/GTX295SnowLeo/gfxutil -i xml -o hex /Users/*/Desktop/GTX295osx86/card.plist /Users/*/Desktop/GTX295SnowLeo/out.hex

*is your username

 

 

5.Add a new entry to your com.apple.boot.plist

<key>device-properties</key>

<string>paste out.hex content here</string>

 

Reboot and enjoy!
