Kyle F. Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Hi everyone. I am trying to boot to my Mac but am getting an unusual issue with "NVEnabler::Probe fails" with absolutely no "DSMOS has arrived" message. I am unsure if it is to do with my GeForce 8400GS 512MB temporary graphics card (as my GTX 470 bust on me with lines down the screen last week) I am totally lost. I have tried the kexts for Mountain Lion 10.8.3 for this card but no luck at all. Since I am new to Mac OS X entirely, I have no idea how to get the logs. :L Help with this would be greatly appreciated as it is seriously annoying me and I'm about to pull my hair out with anger over it.. lol Thanks. EDIT: Unfortunately this is all I could get to show what happens. http://youtu.be/UHuSWzwvkoI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe75 Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 First remove nvenabler and use GraphicsEnabler=Yes at boot instead. Second, make sure you are using a compatible smbios Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arcade33 Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 for 8400 gs you need only " GraphicsEnabler = Yes " in your chameleon boot.plist <key>GraphicsEnabler</key> <string>Yes</string> this Graphic card is working OOB with Moutain Lion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe75 Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 i didn't know this was on an amd cpu.. now i would suggest you try using 10.7.x because neither nv or amd graphics are working correctly in 10.8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle F. Posted August 16, 2013 Author Share Posted August 16, 2013 OK, so how do I remove NVEnabler completely? Or would it be wise to completely wipe my disk and put 10.7 Lion on it? It has 10.8.0 or 10.8.3 I think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle F. Posted August 18, 2013 Author Share Posted August 18, 2013 Well my virtual machine with Mountain Lion on failed on me this morning...so I can't do anything else for my portable USB 3.0 hard disk.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
