Enabling GTX 460 on a Vostro 200

[FahadW]

I have a Dell vostro 200, which i have upgraded with Core 2 duo 2.66GHz processor, 4GB corsair Ram and GTX 460.

 

I have tried varios methods to install SL 10.6.7 but only one that works is Dell i530 iso, and i have to boot from the CD every time.

 

But i can't get GTX 460 enabled.

 

my problems so far.

 

my OSX DVD for some reason can't see my SATA drives whether i boot from i530.iso or [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url].iso

 

so i am using installing it in a usb HDD. not [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] can't see USB drives so i am left with i530.iso

 

Using this i530 and HDD atached to USB i can install OSX all the way up to desktop and then install the combo 10.6.7 update.

 

If i only install the Audio and Ethernet kexts from [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url], i get sound and internet. i can't install chameleon because as soon as i do it, my USB drive would become unbootable, so much so, that i cant even get to the bios screen with the USB HDD attached to the PC.

 

I understand from the forums that to enable GTX 460 i need to have chameleon RC5 installed on the HDD.

 

I am stuck here, trying to get the graphics enabled.

 

BTW i would also like help in enabling SATA on my hackintosh. currently my OSX install can't see my SATA drives or my Optical drive.

 

 

I am new to hackintosh and OSX so don't know much about editing the OS to get things running, and would appreciate any help provided.

Don't crosspost. I've deleted your other post in the desktops subforum.

 

You must install the latest Quadro 4000 drivers from nvidia, the drivers that ship with OS X has no support for your video card.
