xZaggin Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Sup guys, I've been having a hard time trying to enable QE/CI on my laptop, No matter what I do it always stays at 64MB shared memory. System Specs Asus S550CM Intel i5 3317u 1.7 Quadcore 8 Gig Ram 1TB HDD 24 Gig SSD (this is where my MacOS is installed) IntelHD400 and nVidia GeForce 635M combo I'm aware that my nVidia is not compatible Basically I've tried using clover and chameleon, both using a different USB to boot from. Clover: I used clover and clover Configurator to EnableIntel and InjectEDID -> didn't not work, only got me to full resolution People told that I might have to change my IntelCapriFB value thing so I did. I've tried from 0-11 and no luck. Chameleon I'm using chameleon and have used Enoch but no luck, is there more than just editing this number? Am I missing a string? I've tried using this link but I'm not sure if I'm doing it correctly. http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/291614-intel-hd4000-and-haswell-inject-aaplig-platform-id/ My current SMBios is Mac Mini 6,1 the Intel says no kext loaded and the revision ID is 0x0009 Should I be editing the kext or something? I've read that somewhere but can't find the source <key>EnableC2State</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>EthernetBuiltIn</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>Graphics Mode</key> <string>1366x768x32</string> <key>GraphicsEnabler</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>IGPEnabler</key> <string>y</string> <key>IntelCapriFB</key> <string>2</string> <key>Kernel Flags</key> <string>npci=0x2000</string> <key>PciRoot</key> <string>1</string> <key>SkipNvidiaGfx</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>Timeout</key> <string>2</string> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ErmaC Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 <key>IGPEnabler</key> <string>y</string> BTW such key is not a chameleon key Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xZaggin Posted July 10, 2014 Author Share Posted July 10, 2014 BTW such key is not a chameleon key Thanks for letting me know, I don't know how that got there I didn't add anything manually How should it be then? hello take a good read here http://olarila.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=3111 I read that and I can't seem to load it, I've changed this value to mine and it doesn't load. They're all in my /Backup folder for some reason , I don't have any graphic kexts in my main extensions folder... Last time I added them into my extension folder my system would not start not even in safe mode I'm afraid to put them there. Is this the correct one I should change?

artur_pt Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 hello forget that apply one of platform-id i tell u to do.. and without graphics kext.. never work... good hack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xZaggin Posted July 10, 2014 Author Share Posted July 10, 2014 hello forget that apply one of platform-id i tell u to do.. and without graphics kext.. never work... good hack Ok I'll try , I'll move all the kext from /Backup to /System/Library/Extensions and see what happens this time.... Edit: I booted up fine this time , but the Kext are still not loaded, they're in the correct folder now though. Is changing the platform-id relevant if they're not loaded yet? I don't want to reboot my system 11 times for nothing.... Edit: Okay , I understand now that changing the platform-id will load them, still no luck, is it necessary to restart each time I change the value? Is it necessary to have both IntelCapri and Platform-ig in the boot.plist? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xZaggin Posted July 10, 2014 Author Share Posted July 10, 2014 Okay the main problem is that when I add the files to the Extension folder it tell me they have failed to install. http://i.imgur.com/N6TF2D8.jpg http://i.imgur.com/Sv0rKgt.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 use the Kext Wizard app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xZaggin Posted July 10, 2014 Author Share Posted July 10, 2014 use the Kext Wizard app. I used disk utility and got this. First time I've seen this and I thought it would fix things but it didn't. Animations are still laggy, and my screen brightness went down. Everything is exactly the same it was before when it only said 64MB shared, I got no improved performance whatsoever. WHAT IS WRONG?! Just uploading this photo and Imgur got so twitchy , I expected once I got this done I would be done with my mackintosh for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xZaggin Posted July 12, 2014 Author Share Posted July 12, 2014 I was looking in IOregistry and found this, maybe this has an effect? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
