centaur Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Even though I've had a real Mac for a few years, I'm kinda new to Hackintosh. Here's what I've tried so far ... 1) Kalyway NVinject 512 during install - produces black screen 2) Kalyway Natit during install - produces blank screen 3) Leo4All v2 NVinject 512 during install - doesn't go higher than 1024x768 4) NVinstaller .41 nVidia official kexts - causes hang during boot at kernel version My system identifies the hardware as 05:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: nVidia Corporation Unknown device [10de:0421] (rev a1), which I guess seems right as the Device ID should be 0x0421. I do have a nForce mobo, which I've read might complicate things, but could someone who's had better luck go through what they needed to do to get it to work? I'm kinda at a total loss why things don't seem to work out or maybe if I'm even installing it right. Thanks in advance!
