Hi,

I have the same motherboard and graphics card (2GB) and i plan to install OS X 11.10 El Capitan. Currently i have a system (legacy-bios install) with OS X 10.6.8 Snow Leopard with Chameleon Boot Loader, for this I have no previous experience with Clover and I would ask for some clarification in the way, if possible. When you say:

 

- Edit Config.plist with plistedit pro

-> Graphics -> NVidia = False, True = ATI, Intel = False

- Edit Config.plist with clover configuration

-> ACPI> DSDT> Corrections> Fix display 0100 = TRUE

-> Devices> FakeID> ATI = 0x68E01002

-> Graphics> Inject> ATI = TRUE

-> Graphics> FBName> Shrike

 

you're referring to a modification of the default config.plist installation file or to a prevoius customized one for your system?

In this case could you explain how to proceed?

Do you have need to use some boot-flags during startup?

Hi,
i have solved the questions referred to in my previous post in this thread but after installation some problems still remain:
1) the computer does not wake up after sleep (instead the monitor sleep/wake works)
2) the VoodooHDA.kext linked above seems to be very unstable (at startup audio can work or not randomly)
Has anyone tested the VoodooHDA.kext 2.8.8 (or other) or the Realtek ALC AppleHDA installation methods with this motherboard?
Any advice or suggestions about will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
