Hi I'm using cartri's bios! 0.8 on an EP45-UD3P Rev 1.1 board with a q6600, 4gb of ram and a gtx 260... My system runs well but I have some problems...

 

First: In osx, if you play a movie, sd or hd, if you drag the window of the quicktime player, the movie continues to play perfectly... On my hackintosh, it stops and stutters until I let it go... So I kind of suspect a problem with my graphic card or something no?? Anybody got an idea??

 

Also, another completely different problem: when I'm using my magic trackpad, if I drag a regular Finder window, the window lags behind the cursor... Could it be a bluetooth problem?? My wired mouse doesn't have this problem... But this sucks!

 

I really hope somebody can help me with my video problem...

 

here is a youtube link of what i'm talking about :Youtube

edit: for some raison I read GTS450; which isn't supported.

Anyhow; it looks like it could be some DRM checking mechanism; some hards have that OSX chokes on.

If you have it while iTunes run, even in the background; no movies; that might be it.

In that case you need to disable this particular kext; which name I can't recall; but I believe disabler.kext will disable it.

@IMHERETOSTAY

That's clearly QE/CI/Native resolution isn't enable ( / means and, or )

I had the exact same problem as you and I solved by this way

 

1. Extract your DSDT, and fix it as below, take close look at this sign // <-- THIS IS IMPORTANT:

 

Device (PCI0)

{

Name (_HID, EisaId ("PNP0A03"))

Name (_ADR, 0x00)

Name (_UID, 0x00) // <-- THIS IS IMPORTANT, MUST BE 0x00 (0x01 or 0x02 is wrong)

Name (_BBN, 0x00)

Method (_S3D, 0, NotSerialized)

 

As I think DSDT from BIOS Cartri has this problem so your GTX260 isn't detected right, according to http://aserebln.blogspot.com/search/label/DSDT

 

2. Also download and install driver from NVIDIA:

3. Make sure GraphicsEnabler set to Yes

 

There are more solutions however this is the most accurate/easiest one, please report if this works or not

I had this same problem with a gtx 260.

 

I shutdown my computer, switched the DVI port my monitor was connected to on the gtx 260, started the computer, and the lag and video stuttering went away.

Instead of editing the PCI0 (the PCI Bridge) device in DSDT as nghia demonstrated above, another way to do the same thing is to set PCIRoot=0 or =1 in your com.apple.Boot.plist. Try both 0 and 1 and see what happens.

 

Chameleon defaults to 0 if you don't set any PCIRoot= but apparently it can get confused if this number is not explicitly set in the PCI Bridge device in the DSDT? Not sure what's going on really. But it breaks GraphicsEnabler=Y.

 

PCIRoot= works with Chameleon, if you're using netkas' PC_EFI or AsereBLN 1.1.9 you can do the same thing but the command is different, google/forum search it.
