nekkro-kvlt Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Hi everyone, can you please tell me how would I be able to install a retail SL 10.6 with a GTX280 card ? Is there any booloader which can load working driver, or another functional method than using another card, because I do not want to buy a card especially for installing the OS.

mdnz01 Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Just use Nvinject or NVEnabler 64 to get the GTX 280 working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdnz01 Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Thanks, but How would I use it during installation ? I suggest using myHack installer if you're using an USB stick. Chameleon will boot in 1024*768 mode, which does not require a driver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdnz01 Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Can you make a quick list of your hardware so we can check what boot cd works the best for you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nekkro-kvlt Posted March 2, 2010 Author Share Posted March 2, 2010 Can you make a quick list of your hardware so we can check what boot cd works the best for you? My mb is a EP31-DS3L Proc: quadcore Q6600 graphic card: GTX280 ram 2x2Go@800Mhz. Btw, i found here a bootloader for nvidia 2XX: http://tonymacx86.com/viewtopic.php?f=18&a...ae&start=10 but I tried to change the DSDT.aml and smbios.plist with a file from another boot CD which is working with my MB, but I guess it has to be done under OSX, because I done it under windows with ultraiso and it boot but stop after cdboot done. If I change nothing, then as It's not intended for my MB i think, I got stranges chars and a reboot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I finally managed It to work by using the [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] CD from here: http://www.tonymacx86.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=401 First it didn't work because I tried with the -x bootflag, but with only -v I get the install screen. Let's have fun with another problem now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
