mattsnowboard Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 I found that selecting the web driver and rebooting does nothing, it always returns to the OS X default driver. FYI, regarding this. I edited the Nvidia driver so I could install with the "correct" SMBIOS (or at least the one with the specs most closely related to this computer) http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/291929-1085new-nvidia-web-driver-available/?p=1946332 But more importantly, I followed this guide (more or less) to get the Nvidia driver installed and enabled. http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/288582-new-nvidia-retail-driver-install-solution/ Note that the link to the driver may not be latest, but doing the nvda_drv=1 and adding the FileNVRAM.dylib file seemed to do the trick. I'm staying with Mountain Lion until I see Nvidia drivers for Mavericks, because the drivers seemed to do the trick for me. Though it sounds like Lyle M may have a different issue (different graphics card). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Square_Feet Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 (edited) Hi guys, First off, a huge thanks to acronator for the guide ( and rockinron_1 for the original guide ), I got ML (10.8.5) booted up and running on the same hardware without any problems. Sleep, network, etc. worked out-of-the-box, and sound was enabled using the same route in the guide. I decided to try giving Mavericks a shot, though (slightly stupidly overwriting my ML install after partitioning in the installer)... It installed fine (took a while for the installer to reach the language-selection screen, but after that all was well). At least until I booted it... No network/ethernet or sound (the latter to be expected), and my non-USB3 ports kept disconnecting my dongles. Graphics worked, though. That was a little something at least! I couldn't find any useful logs in Console or anything like that, and various bootflag combos didn't seem to help at all, so I'm now re-installing ML. Just wondering if anyone else with this board has had similar issues on Mavericks? I've done a search on the forum but can't find any word on the network or USB issue. Cheers. Specs: GA-Z87X-UD4H 4770k GTX 770 (Gigabyte 2GB) 16GB RAM 256GB SSD as OS drive EDIT: I'm going to give Mavericks another shot (starting from scratch again but I'll use a different drive to ML this time). I'll make notes of any odd messages that pop up when booting using -v; I can't imagine this post is much use without this further info...

salvatorepolito Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 UPDATE: Sept 26 2013 Following issues come up frequently: Sleep/wake problem where the system freezes while waking up (no display either). Random complete system hangs where everything just freezes Prolonged waits and temporary freezes with the wheel spinning away to glory or the mouse not moving. Repaired permissions and also ran kext utility. Issues continue. Chipping away..will update once I have a stable system. I own the same board and I think that I found a solution for these freezes. Simply I disabled all the C-States in bios. (C1E - C6 - C7). After that I'had no hangs or freezes for about two days. The big problem is that right now we could use all the power saving system of the cpu. I only got a limited speedstep, (8x and 35x) of course limited native speedstep is better than nothing but I think we had to work hard to archive a perfect speedstep like on old cpus, and two TURBO steps. Other than that our DSDT is full of Errors and Warnings, so is very difficult to use a custom DSDT to fix things. My problem is that this is my first hack since SnowLeopard times and things has changed so much... PS: I suggest to use Clover instead of Chameleon because with clover iCloud, AppStore and Messages are working natively. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
