Help! ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4570 doesn't work!

[robertocoriglione]

R-Drive not open it...

"Patch 'D:\109dp6.arc' is not valid"

 

Unfortunately I don't have enought time to hack. At this point I prefer to wait for the stable version of 10.9 to install in the future...

If I have a news I write in this topic.

Thank you for your help!

[robertocoriglione]

NEWS!

 

I have tried to install Clover on iAtkos ML2 with MBR. Installation is ok, but when I start mac os, after the loading, the screen become black and the pc restarts...

Any idea?

[Alex009988]

After you pressed on icon of system at the Clover, PC restarts, right?

Try Clover-BiosBlockIO, tick it off at the pkg.

You can show your config.plist.

[robertocoriglione]

the problem was that i need npci=0x2000... How can I add it?

now i have this:

 

 

I have only the name of GPU, but no QE/CI...

[Alex009988]

<key>boot‐args</key>

<string>npci=0x2000</string>

I have to install any kexts about graphics?

[Alex009988]

No, but you must patch framebuffer at AMD4600Controller.

[Alex009988]

And dodn't forget to add your ID

<key>IOPCIMatch</key>

<string>0x94901002 0x94881002 0x95531002</string>

[robertocoriglione]

Ok, I do it!

 

Now when the system boot, after the boot logo, the screen become white and after few second become black.

Try to add DualLink=0.

EDIT 1

<key>LoadVBios</key>
<false/>

​Also try  it so with Dual-link 0 or 1. Maybe Vbios is superfluous.

[robertocoriglione]

YESSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!

 

I have only add DualLink=0 and now it WORK!!!!!!!!

 

You are a genius!

Thank you very much!!

 

EDIT:

The external monitor doesn't work... Is possible to enable it?

[Alex009988]

Check your Display Sleep. And check DVDPlayer, namely put DVD Disk into computer or try to watch a movie. and see if the program crashes. Check VGA.

http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/287995-how-to-launch-ati-card-by-dsdt/?p=1908542

If all of them work it means graphics works well.

Also you can get rid of NullCPUPowerManagement and other crutches.

02000000 40000000 0900 0000 12 04 00 07 (LVDS)

10000000 10000000 0000 0000 00 10 01 01 (VGA)

00000000 00000000 0000 0000 00 00 00 00 (-)

Check VGA with that framebuffer, or use it in any case and even if you don't have equipment to check it.

It's my mistake... I just had to reboot with the monitor connected...

 

Can I hide some partition in clover?

I'm setting up an Acer Aspire 5738ZG with the same GPU ( Mobility Radeon HD4570 ). Can you summarize the process and provide the files I'll need to make my GPU works ?

[robertocoriglione]

I have add my ID in the info.plist of ATI4600.kext and the framebuffer (given me by Alex).

After I have installed Clover ed configured to load my VBIOS... 

[pimpao]

I've it running. I placed my vbios on the ROM folder, patch the FB, and also add deviceid to the controller.kext. and then I'd setup Clover configurator, it kinda works, but I don'r know why everytime I go to the maps app the computer break. Only cursor move, nothing more happens and I can't do anything..
