Nvenabler Issues

[Logan Lehman]

Hi, I am currently running Snow Leopard 10.6.4 and I had my MSI Geforce 8400 GS working on all resolutions, with no QE/CI under EFI strings that I inputted into NVinject.kext

 

I was searching around for ways to enable my QE/CI on this card, so I tried the NVenabler. I got rid of all EFI strings and and replaced the com.apple.boot.plist with the one that came originally installed with iAtkos s3v2. I completely deleted NVinject.

 

Here is the problem, when I try to boot into my system, it hangs, forever. I have been waiting for about 1 hour already. IT says that:

 

NVDANV50HAL loaded and registered.

ATY_Init: NVIDIA card device-id - 6e2

ATY_Init: nvidia card vram size = 268435456 b

 

and then it starts going into my VooDooPState.kext information

 

the last thing that it says before it completely hangs is:

 

Failed to load kext com.apple.driver.AppleUSBEHCI (error 0xdc008016)

 

I just want to fix this hang up so I can figure out of this method of QE/CI enabling has worked.

 

Thanks guys,

 

Logan

edit: I am using DVI port. I tried VGA, and it got stuck at a blue screen.

Don't use two injection methods at the same time. Delete ATY_Init.kext before trying NVEnabler.

hahahaha wow nice catch there. Well I did a fresh install, and QE/CI seems to be working with just the NVenabler, although in profiler it doesnt say that it is working, I can use Preview, and FrontRow.

1. if you use Chameleon RC5 you dont need any enabler, cause it is built in.

2. second more preferable method is EFI strings, cause of faster boot and update-guarantee.

3. is any enabler

That's normal, Snow Leopard does not show this information in System Profiler, presumably because all Macs that can run Snow can do QE/CI..?

 

Hold down ctrl and move the mouse wheel, if you can zoom in and out then you have QE/CI. If the menu bar is transparent, you have QE/CI, if there's a water ripple effect when adding a widget in Dashboard, you have QE/CI. etc etc.

 

'Unknown nvidia card' is just cosmetic, it does not have any impact on performance or functionality.
