Hello everybody

so here the Story of my install:
i had a running System with 10.7.4 on a Asus P5Q, with a E8400 and a Nvidia GT430.
i tried to install the GM Mountain Lion but had no Video. From a Source i needed to Patch the NVDAResman, NVDANV50Hal and NVDAGF100Hal.kext.
Since then i could start the setup of Mountain Lion.

after the installation was i started the System and got Panic from IOPCIFamily.kext.
So i started to search on some Forums. i stumbled upon a thread where a User (domino (from this board)) comfirmed a working Mountain Lion on a Asus P5Q.
i asked him that to give me his IOPCIFamily.kext and he provided this:

I only have the P5Q, NOT Pro. these are the kexts I use in S/L/E. I do not have any kexts in E/E. The colored are from the community. The non-colored is the original from ML. You should post a screen shot and maybe the community can help.

I installed all of these kexts and since then i had no IOPCIFamily panic anymore.
how i'm stuck at this attached Screen when i run OS X in verbose (normal run gets me the restart msg).

i also heard that the Geforce GTX550 Ti works OOB with Lion and i wanted to upgrade anyway so i bought that Card today and replaced the patched NVDAResman, NVDANV50Hal and NVDAGF100Hal.kexts with the ones from the BaseSystem.dmg

does anybody have a solution for this?
current System on Signature.

Thx for replying.

i checked my S/L/E and there is no fintek.kext FakeSMC Plugin.
so i'm kinda curious why fintek is showing me errors anyway..

also thx for providing the Link.
i just started the Thread just because i didnt knew any point of start or didnt knew any cause of the Problems.

FintekF718x.kext is into FakeSMC.kext/Contents/Plugins


right click on FakeSMC.kext, then "Show Package Contents" ,

i deleted the fintek one. no luck.
i stuck at the grey spinning wheel of death.
and it takes up to 10min to then finally stuck somewhere.
HDD is doing stuff like crazy but no results
safemode wont work too.

i post what i get now later

[martinherrmann]

okay the first one was a update from Lion to Mountain Lion.
now i made a fresh install on a fresh HDD.

i'm stuck at this screen on the updated Lion (picture 1)
and stuck at this screen on the fresh install on the new HDD (picture 2)+

boot options are GraphicsEnabler=Yes, npci=0x3000 and darkwake=0
also UseKernelCache is enabled.

EDIT
i now did not use the provided fixes from the User on the Forums with the IOPCIFamily.kext etc.
i used now all default kext on the InstallESD. Now i get promtly that error (picture 3) on the fresh install hdd.
i also need to use "npci=0x3000" to boot up the installusb stick. after that all my HDD's are Orange in the Harddisk drive tool.

Hello everybody- after some research i guess its the Graphicscard again.
a 3GB Version of a GTX 550 seems not to work since OS X seems to not like more than 2 GB.
i will post my results with a other card maybe. thx for help anyway.
