Nvidia GT 420 and Mavericks

[Shoryuken82]

First of all, thanks to InsanelyMac and its forum, it's a great place to learn how to build step by step his Hackintosh.

 

I have a Nvidia GT 610 graphic card, connected on DVI, which is running out of the box with Mavericks installed on a Asus P9X79 LE motherboard but when i try to switch with my Nvidia GT 420, the computer is booting fine until the apple logo and then the screen displays the message "No DVI signal" as if the graphic card didn't send an input signal. i use the last version of Chameleon as bootloader and I tried several combinations of bootflags (like Graphics Enabler=Yes/No, PCIRootUID=0/1, npci=0x2000/0x3000, -x,...) without success.

 

Could you give me some tips to solve this issue?

 

P.S.: sorry for my bad english...

Are you trying to use both at the same time? Chameleon is not very good with that, although somebody posted here recently saying that GraphicsEnabler works when the two cards are of the same family...yours aren't.

 

If you want to use both at once you must set GraphicsEnabler=no and look for another injection method, I believe it's most commonly done via DSDT.

 

Since you know that the GT 610 works with no problems, I would first try unplugging the GT 610 and try to get the GT 420 to work on its own, this will make troubleshooting easier when using both cards.

Oops, just a mistake from myself, I want to use only one card not a dual configuration.

 

How can i achieve that with DSDT editing?

Don't bother with that if you're only going to use one card. It's not going to perform better or anything.

 

Try with Chameleon GraphicsEnabler first.
