Well.

This is my second OSX86 Machine. My first one was and AMD Nforce 650i Hackintosh.

Specs:
8600GT 256mb
EVGA nForce 780i
Intel Quad Core 2.66 Ghz
Not going to post all the boring hardware, this is all you need to know


- Successful install with iAtkos 10.5.2
- Video Card drivers working (8600 GT 256mb)
- Sleep Working
- Successful Dual Boot with Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit
- Firewire Working
- USB ports Working
- Sound Working
- Ethernet Not Working

Installed OS X and used NVinject 256 driver for Graphics.

Has anyone here gotten Ethernet Working?
Please post with drivers!!
And please share your experience with this mobo.

I used iAtkos version 2 I think, but I don't remmember what options I used cause I'm writing from school right now but I'll let you know once I get home.

I just built my third machine with the same MB using iAtkos 10.5.2. My ethernet is listed under the network settings and is even showing a green light, but is not allowing me to connect to the internet.

My last MB did the same thing and all that I needed to do was unplug the machine for several seconds, reboot and the internet worked fine.

This one is not working, everything else is running great.

All 4 cores working under load?
Try moving big file around your system and see if it freeze lol

780i isn't stable for osx... trust me I've been there... but hey if you are satisfy with loading into mac osx, I got nothing to say.
