mitch_de Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 For all bugfixing (using EFI string ) be sure to have really orig. AppleATI drivers installed ! So boot in OS X safe mode (-x) and reapply latest (fitting to your OS X version) ATI* Apple OS X Combo Update with pacifist (all ATI*.kext selected in pacifist for install, NOTHING else!). After that repair permissions. Thats the first step of bugfixing. Now check again, for EFI string usage, if you have any gpu injector kect installed. remove them (natit.kext). Remove extensions.mkext (will be rebuild automatic). Now again use EFI STUDIO Extended (3850 Triakis FB or 38xx Megadolon FB) for generating your gpu efi string. At least 10.5.6 is needed if using Megadolon FB. Normally it is best (for 38xx) to9 use megadolon framebuffer, not the triakis. If that not work, (next normal boot) try triakis. If that all not work, perhaps you got an 38xx card with underclocked VRAM (cheaper cards). EFIStudio_EXTENDED.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
