MaLd0n Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 use the above procedure reboot with -f -v problems with black screen use an adapter (dvi -->vga) in the second inning dvi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goroner Posted July 2, 2010 Author Share Posted July 2, 2010 man i told you i cant open lizard , when i open it error pops up and there's button reopen but when i press it again the error pops up , this seems to be happening with every app that is added by hazard , all the mac apps are working fine ,but kext helper , kext utility lizard osx86tools property editor and others added to the dvd that are made for hackintoshes dont work they always crush and there's button reopen in the window that pops up but the same happens all the time , im not able to run lizard and make the changes you said... i reinstalled os x now and didnt check any graphic drivers from the menu in the installation , after that i booted up with -x -force64 and did the update to 10.6.4 , than i deleted ati4500 and ati4600 kexts and in ati4800 kext i changed the string for device id to my id only ,that's 0x94421002 than i opened atix2000 kext and also put in just my card's id 0x94421002 ,after that i tried to boot with -f -v and i get black screen , tried on the dvi port using the vga to dvi adapter ,and in the vga port , i get the same black screen, i only got one vga and one dvi output from my graphic card..

Goroner Posted July 2, 2010 Author Share Posted July 2, 2010 hmm i dont understand you i got two outputs on the card one is DVI the one for newer lcd monitors and the other is vga the blue old connector that all the crt monitors got , so my lcd got the old type connector the vga , and i tried to connect the monitor directly in the blue connector the vga one , and i get black screen than i tried with connecting dvi adapter so i can connect the monitor in the dvi port (the white , new lcd connector ) and i get again black screen , and i will say again i cant even boot in safe mode now ... how can i use dvi->vga connector when my monitor got only vga connector it's not appliable i can use vga->dvi connector not backwards... here is my card's ports: i got the same card exactly that one , and you see the blue port on the left , well that's the connector that my monitor originaly got , so i tried in that one and i get the black screen , than i put vga->dvi connector so i can connect it to the white port on the right side the DVI one .. and again i got black screen .....

Goroner Posted July 3, 2010 Author Share Posted July 3, 2010 i reinstaled mac os x now and i updated to 10.6.4 and backed up the kernel i can boot in safe mode as usual, and now i added this three kexts in s/l/e after i added the kexts i get kernel panic... can you check the kexts and tell me if something is wrong inside of tham, in the ati4800 kexts there's just the id of my card 0x94421002 , i also gotta mantion i deleted ati4500 and ati4600 kexts.. as i read that for 4850 those can be removed so 4850 might get working after removing tham.. kexts.rar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaLd0n Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 try with .pkgs http://www.megaupload.com/?d=W242MOW0 1- drivers 2-framebuffer if not resolved use qe/ci exotics available on this link http://netkas.org/?p=459 bug screen jumping use natit powerplay all these have in the pack just download the qe/ci exotics in Netkas you have to use the system in 32 arch=i386 remove what you have already installed and follow procedure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goroner Posted July 3, 2010 Author Share Posted July 3, 2010 hey man i tried with the pkg's you told me to i installed the first one the hd48x0 driver and than after it i installed the frambuffer one , but before i installed those 2 i updated to 10.6.4 and backedup the kernel overwrite it actualy from windows , after that and after installing the 2 kexts i restarted and now when i get to the apple logo and the spinning thingy down after couple of seconds the screen goes black and my pc restarts , this happens in bouth the dvi and vga outputs from the graphic card , basicly nothing works this way ... i cant even boot in safe mode too damn!

MaLd0n Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 God :S You took everything I had tested? use single user delete kext -s mount -uw / rm -rf /system/library/extensions/kextname.kext exit if we do not have any modification, it works very well but only 32 in the kernel (arch=i386) so you need to take everything that has been tried I advise you to read a little about it any problems use the single user to delete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaLd0n Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 1-its top bar is transparent? 2-open frontrow (applications) see the result you are in the kernel 32? type uname-v in terminal and see 1-drivers 2-framebuffer if you need to install the qe / ci exotics if the screen goes jumping you use the Nativity powerplay but to work you need to remove everything that has been tried if you do not do will not get 1-legacyati4800controller + Graphicsenabler/pciroot use Lizard 32/64 bit or 2-radeon_hd_48x0_drivers-2.pkg + Patched framebuffers for 48x0 and 3870 if you need to use qe/ci exotics if you need use the natitpowerplay(Bug) reboot only 32 arch=i386 :S EDIT step by step 32 BIT http://www.megaupload.com/?d=W242MOW0 1- install radeon_hd_48x0_drivers-2.pkg 2- install Patched framebuffers for 48x0 and 3870 3- if not enable qe/ci, use exotics 4- if you need to use the natitpowerplay(BUG SCREEN JUMPING) only 32 bits arch=i386 64 BIT 1- use the kext legacyati4800controller.kex (E/E or S/L/E) http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php...st&id=59328 2- Graphicsenabler Use Lizard http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1034555/lizard/Lizard-custom.zip 2a-Auto detect value 2b-GraphicsInjection 2c-save REBOOT this is added in boot.plist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
