anaconda4282 Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 Hey everyone, new here but those tests were easy haha! Anyway, I recently got a Hackintosh, it all worked perfectly. I wanted to up the ram from 2gb to 6gb and this is where I ran into problems. I read the other topic with the kexts which supposedly solved it, all that did for me was make the computer do looong beeps and then not turn on. So I removed all ram apart from 1gb and now it works. Since then I've put in the whole 6gb again and I'm just running into the same problem I was before (at least I haven't gone backwards) Right now, I've got it running with 4gb and no problems, so what is this extra 2gb doing to cause such a problem? Anyway, the hardware I'm using is this: CPU: Intel Pentium D 940 processor (3.2 GHz) Motherboard: Asus P5ND2-SLI Memory: 2GB DDR2 PC2-4200 DIMMS (2x1gb - 4 memory slots. Max 8GB) Hard Drive: 500GB SATA CD Drive: Multi-Format Dual Layer DVD Re-Writer DVD-ROM Video Card: nVIDIA GeForce 6600 (256MB) PCI-Express And here's a photo I took of the screen every time I try to boot with 6gb in: After that line, it just turns off. Any contribution is greatly appreciated and hopefully I'll be able to repay it someday. Also, I forgot to add, I can also boot into Windows 7, which works totally fine with the 6gb, it's only when I try to go to osx that I get the issue.
