I've created an USB following one of the guides of this forum. The problem is that when the load finishes, instead of the install screen, I get a black screen. I have a nVidia 240 GT with 1GB of memory, if that helps.

Thank you very very much.

I have the same problem with a GTX 260. Hopefully I can sort it out...

I have a GTX 260 and I had the same problem! Using GraphicsEnabler=Yes made it work for me!

Yeah   I've tried a lot of things, but none of them have worked. Also, on the Internet, I didn't find anything relevant

PCIRootUID=0

[forkies]

Can you post the patch here ? perhaps I can modified for my GT 230M

[agentej]

I used this program http://www.insanelym...howtopic=223205
I extracted my DSDT and then I searched for a patch for the Nvidia 240. I applied the patch, and it worked. But my Windows 8 install has messed up ( it doesn't boot now) and I can't boot into Mountain Lion ( I get a kernel panic about an extension I have to remove)

[Peter_sm]

Thanks, can you attache the patch you applied?

Can you explain how you "patched" it? The link to the patch is just a portion of a DSDT file isn't it, not actually a patch you can run in the DSDT editor and patcher?
