Hi,

 

I'm running iATKOS v1.0i r2 on my PC but I can't make my card to work on OSX. I run the NVInstaller v.33

and select Final 10.5.2 NVidia kexts and NVinject Vanilla (256 Mb) and when I reboot, I got a Panic message.

 

Do any of you know if I need to do something else? Or any of you made this card to work? please help me...

 

Thanks for everything,

 

Juan

I have the same software setup as you and the same GFX card!

 

I managed to get pasted the kernal panic by booting into safe mode (-v -x)

 

and then manually changing the .kext files:

the fix for nForce Motherboards, no matter if they are for intel or AMD is that the kext needs to set rid of the trailing part, those "&0xfff0ffff", because they causing conflicts with other Nvidia components of the board, but I don't know if is easy to deply because you need to know every DeviceId of geforce cards.

 

an example:

 

if NVDAResman has:

<key>IOPCIPrimaryMatch</key>

<string>0x011010de&0xfff8ffff 0x017010de&0xfff8ffff 0x017910de 0x018010de&0xfff8ffff</string>

 

it should be like this

<key>IOPCIPrimaryMatch</key>

<string>0x011710de 0x017110de 0x017910de 0x018610de</string>

 

Users who know the specific DevIDs can put the DeviceID that they are using:

<key>IOPCIPrimaryMatch</key>

<string>0x014110de</string>

 

that is my DeviceID of my 6600 on my nForce 4 Ultra MoBo BTW.
