dnld Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 (edited) Mac os X Installation on D975XBX2 I am very much new to Mac OS, and need guidance. I tried lots of combination, now my system is booting with iATKOS 10.4.8. But to getting it booted in this version I deleted the Geforce, Nvidia drivers from /System/Library/Extentions directory (As per the guidance of some forum, but lost the link). Now I am getting only basic display without other resolutions. This guidance I found in one of the forums for hakintosh. But one problem I observed that the web browser getting hung when browsing. Is it my fault or some problem with the system I could not understand? I got some other guidance from this forum to upgrade to 10.4.10 and updated. But still my display card driver not found. Please guide me how to upgrade my system to at least Snow Leopard, so that I can use photo editing software working properly. My system Configuration is as below: Motherboard : Intel Corporation D975XBX2 BIOS : i975 (with updated bios BX97520J.86A.2838 of 9/3/2008) Sound : Intel 82801G SigmaTel 9227 audio codec SigmaTel 9274D audio codec Lan Card : Intel 82573E/82573L Gigabit Ethernet Controller IEEE-1394a Serial ATA Controller : Marvell 88SE6145 Serial ATA Processor : Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 @ 2.40GHz Memory : Corsair XMS2 DDR2 PC2-6400 (400Mhz) (4GB Duel channel) Graphic Card : XFX nVidia 8600GT 256mb DDR3 With regards Dnld New Development : Yesterday I tried to install iATKOS 5 (inside showing i4.1, Mac OS X 10.6.3) and working fine after deleting Geforce and Nvidia from its place. But could not find out any driver for my Display card. Please give me some guidance to work it properly. With Redards Dnld =X-X= Ultimately I installed Mac OS X 10.7.2 and found it working fine. But with the display card "XFX Nvidia 8600 GT 256 GDDR2" not getting dual monitor support. Only DVI port giving disply, if I connect both the monitor it is unable to boot and not giving any signal for the display and the displays are going to sleep mode. If some body know how to fix it please guide me to solve the problem. With regards Dnld. After installing 10.7.2 upgraded to 10.7.4, I changed graphics card and found it is working with all resolutions. Motherboard : Intel Corporation D975XBX2 Graphic Card : XFX nVidia 8600GT 256mb DDR3 (does not support duel monitor) Changed to : nVidia Sparkle 8400GS 512MB (Working fine with duel as well as all resolution) Now I need help to configure: Serial ATA Controller : Marvell 88SE6145 Serial ATA as normal mode of operation. I have storage devices on these extra SATA port and after installing one driver for the marvell from Asus it was working fine (Not RAID mode). If some one know the process or some one could configure this card in Mac os/Hakintosh please give me some information. If it is not possible than also inform me. With regards Dnld ==XX== Finally I came to know that "Marvell 88SE6145" dose not working with MAC OS. So I decided to change my motherboard. ==XX== Edited July 22, 2012 by dnld Quote Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/280107-need-help-to-install-mac-os-x-installation-on-d975xbx2/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
