I'm pretty newbie in this so: I booted with -s and then I started typing these things on green color. I pressed enter after every line. Then I booted with -f -v GraphicsEnabler=No npci=0x2000 and got picture what is in the attachment. Do you have any kext in your extra folder? How can I check that?

iFIRE Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 yes, my English is very bad, but you read my previous post? or not read any? you need delete the graphics kexts for this work and you arrive on the desktop, delete this kexts from S/L/E , you can use Mac Drive from windows for delete it, or use the code that I post line by line and ENTER, or this is very difficult for you?

Damstas Posted May 3, 2013 Author Share Posted May 3, 2013 I figured out what you meant. I deleted those kexts via MacDrive. And booted up the system with flags, and it booted up to set up your mac! So I guess it is now ok. You rock! Thank you so much! EDIT: Still spins the wheel and the apple logo is there when i select USB when i boot and then mountain lion.
