ballzdeepftw Posted October 12, 2013 Author Share Posted October 12, 2013 I'm using the iMac smbios. I tried with and without a DSDT with the same issues. I read that it was graphics related, and the suggest that you delete any kext having to do with hd4000, but I'm not 100% sure which ones to delete. To be honest, I don't see anything related to intel graphics. There aren't as many kext files with this type of install. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe75 Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 i wouldn't go that that route just because your intel graphics are your fall back right now to be able to get in when the nv doesn't work. but if you want to test you can break intel by removing the hd4000graphics.kext.

ballzdeepftw Posted October 12, 2013 Author Share Posted October 12, 2013 I deleted it, and now the monitors lose signal when it boots, which is weird because I have nothing plugged into the inboard graphics Onboard* PCIRootUID=1 finally got me there with a vanilla installation. Thank you guy for all of your help!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ballzdeepftw Posted October 12, 2013 Author Share Posted October 12, 2013 Okay, next problem. The system freezes with this card after installing flash. Suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pimentel Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 Hello I know you're trying to help, but be careful when you do. oldnapalm's guide is good but it is outdated by now. Giving someone the wrong information can cause confusion and more problems than it was meant to solve. Ok, I'll be more careful when trying to help. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where is this kext located again? I want to write it down, just in case I ever have to restore the computer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ballzdeepftw Posted October 13, 2013 Author Share Posted October 13, 2013 try removing AppleUpstreamUserClient.kext Removed it, and I'm still have freezing issues with card, even with Windows. I can't see it being the card, it's brand new, and I haven't over clocked anything. Any more ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gringo Vermelho Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 Maybe your power supply is deteriorating. Running a power supply close to the limit of its capacity will wear it out really quick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe75 Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 I'd agree with gringo. If it happens in both OSs it would be hardware related. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ballzdeepftw Posted October 14, 2013 Author Share Posted October 14, 2013 It's 750 watts, and a few months old. I would think that would be more than I could ever need. Maybe it is the card, I sure hope not though because I have a gt630 as a backup, and I was never able to get that thing to display a picture in mountain lion.

Gringo Vermelho Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 Make sure the video card is fully inserted and secured in the PCI-E slot and check the aux power cable/plug as well. Yeah, 750 watts should definitely do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ballzdeepftw Posted October 14, 2013 Author Share Posted October 14, 2013 Ok, thanks again for all of the help. I'll check the connections and if it keeps it up, I'll just send it back and get a replacement Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
