efp Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 hi all, I've got a bit of a problem. Whenever i install a fresh version and reboot, it works, the screen displays its all cool but then if i go to reboot, the screen dont display ne more. It starts with the apple screen (in -v it seems ok, it starts the nvjet... stuff, it goes to display login screen and then the monitor just goes out) the light goes from blue to red for just a second, then comes back on to a blank black screen. I've got the 8800 GT 512mb. I used kalyway 10.5.2. it didnt have a kext for that card so i just used the nvjet...(512mb) Can i give the boot some sort of other parameters or what should i do? I had kaylway installed before and didnt have this problem. I also used the sleep kernel. My specs. EP45-DS4 (rev1) Intel Core 2 Quad Q9300 2x 2GB OCZ 667 Seagate/Samsung 7200 hd nVidia 8800GT 512MB Thanks!

metaljay Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 i had the same problem m8, seems your drivers are wrong. to fix this do this : ah ok so thats no problem. when darwin bootloader appears, hit any key to enter bootparameters. (a bootparameter is like -v etc). then instead of just entering -v you add -s, so this gives you -v -s then it will take about 15-20 seconds. now you will need to enter the two commands displayed in the console. (there should be writtin something like, if you want to make modifications type blabla. just type what is written on your screen. (just 2 lines)) now enter: 1.sudo -s 2.your password 3.cd / 4../options 5.hit 1 & enter 6.choose nvidia 7.hit enter 8.reboot. from susu2k Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/136784-once-i-reboot-the-screen-doesnt-display-anymoreblank/#findComment-968857 Share on other sites More sharing options...
efp Posted November 17, 2008 Author Share Posted November 17, 2008 now enter: 1.sudo -s 2.your password 3.cd / 4../options 5.hit 1 & enter 6.choose nvidia 7.hit enter 8.reboot. from susu2k When i get to the command promt it automatically puts me on root. If i try sudo -s it dirrectly puts me on sh-3.2# without asking for a password. I dont understand #4 ./options is this a directory? it says theres no such file Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/136784-once-i-reboot-the-screen-doesnt-display-anymoreblank/#findComment-969274 Share on other sites More sharing options...

tanyildiz Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 hi efp, i also have this motherboard and graphic card. i tried almost all methods for graphic card. so, now i use nvkush and added "-f -v" in com.apple.Boot.plist. i hope it works for you, too.
