tdramble Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 I have installed 10.4.7 onto my HP zv6100 and everything has been working great. My osx will sometimes boot very slow and other times boot in about 15 seconds. After a slow boot my cpu speed shows up as 1 GHZ when it shows up as 1.99 GHZ after every fast boot. I have a feeling that this is due to the PowerNow on my Athlon 64 3200+. How can I gaurentee that my Mac os x boots and runs as fast as possible? Thanks in advance.

aeroz Posted October 8, 2006 Share Posted October 8, 2006 I'm trying to get OS X to work on my Pavilion. Could you tell me the process you went through to install it?

xtraa Posted October 8, 2006 Share Posted October 8, 2006 @troy: If you think that the power management could be picky you could try to disable it in the bios to see if it makes a dfference or not.

Thanks in advance. - take the kernel for your cpu features (for example the sse3 kernel for an sse3 cpu) - carefully delete the kexts that you dont need (some of them are handbrakes, do a kextstat and move them in a backup folder) - go to your user configuration in the system prefs and have a look what is autostarted thats basically it Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/29112-my-os-x-occasionally-boots-very-slow/#findComment-204617 Share on other sites More sharing options...
