QUOTE(mikelanding @ Aug 5 2012, 11:21 PM) Yea. Z77P-D3 have Realtek LAN and Sound chip. Work very well using multibeast 4.6.1 (even that is for OSX Lion). Click on my sig..U will see more detail on how the performance on those components. There is another cheaper BT USB dongle U can use. Rocketfish Rf-Mrbtad Micro Bluetooth Adapter. Around USD11 at ebay. This BT dongle reported to work OOB (out of box) Mike, any difference in boot time after installed ML ? My boot time increase after connecting extra hard disks to my pc, had to replace the AppleAHCIPort.kext and IOAHCIFamily.kext from Lion 10.7.4 to get fast boot back again.

I found it longer compare to lion IF I enable password to log in. After I disable the password login, because very fast now. Do note that i am using SSD. But ML is worth to upgrade from lion, overall is very fast. Ram usage also lesser compare to LION. This post has been edited by mikelanding: Aug 5 2012, 11:56 PM

CPU = intel pentium dual core E5700 (3ghz) mobo = ASUS P5G41T-M LX ram = 6gb DDR3 hdd = 160gb graphic = ENGT440/DI/1GD5
by using my 10.7.4 i create usb installer for ML using unibeast... I install it ML in other HDD... success boot using PCIRootUID=0 during setup and 1st boot my ML.... everything work perfectly except my graphic.. I suffer problem that i cannot change resolution...everytime i change resulution it become blue screen.. this problem is expected for fermi card...so i just change resolution in safemode...and the resolution correct after that... I hope next update for ML apple will rollout fix for fermi card...
*I had question... for ML you guys using what Bootloader... I still not install it in my ML... It safe using the bootloader in the newest Multibeast (chimera)..?

Hey guys,
is there a kext for GMA4500 with QE/CI?
There have been tonnes of Kexts for GMA4500 but none of them have QE/CI. I'm looking for one with QE/CI.

10.8.1 is out. http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1571You can update directly without any need to reinstall any kext. On the safe side, do backup/clone your working copy to another partition/HDD

I found one site for downloading Mac OSX Mountain Lion(not that I don't want to buy the real Mac installation disc, but now just playing around). The file owner converted the file from .dmg to ISO and I was thinking to burn the ISO into disc(http://downextra.eu/software/1728278-mac-os-x-108-mountain-lion-iso-untouched.html). But after I downloaded 11 parts of the RAR file, which costs me 2 days, I failed to extract the ISO because the last file is corrupted. And I can't download torrent because streamyx throttles torrent users(download 8-9kbps only). Anyone knows what is the best way to install Mac OSX from Windows 7? Any site suitable providing HTTP direct download? Thanks in advanced for your reply!

By the way I am using ASUS K401J, running Intel Pentium T4500, 2.3GHz CPU, with 2GB ram, Windows 7 Ultimate 32bit version. Can anyone please clarify whether OSX86 and chameleon boot loader will be suitable for my hardware as well? Thanks a lot!

Most import parts in building a hackintosh are motherboard and graphics card. Check the following page on what you need to get. http://tonymacx86.blogspot.com/search/label/CustoMaci7-2600K is a Sandy Bridge processor, and since Ivy Bridge is out, those SB motherboards are now in the cheap, do check the following for compatible motherboard for SB. http://tonymacx86.blogspot.com/2011/11/bui...mac-buyers.html Added on September 7, 2012, 11:18 amWhy tonymac emphasis on Gigabyte motherboards? Because their UEFI BIOS is not locked, not like ASUS or ASROCK and some others. This post has been edited by wiraone: Sep 7 2012, 11:18 AM
