Guys, need your advice on the GC for 24" Display on a HackPro?
XFX's HD4870 vs GTX 285, which one better? Why?
*
For time being, the highest supported by OS X for ATi were the 3000 series while NVidia ranges 9000 series only
4000 & GTX200 series not yet supported, thats why I sold off my GTX260 previously tongue.gif

Please stop using pcwiz related stuff

This includes EFI studio , OSX86Tools and personally I hate recommending people that tool

If you want to learn the proper way to do it please ask

Get NVEnabler , I'll post the link later

Well, that the most easier way to solve QE/ CI what? & it won't easier to break even after update to new release

Perhaps you could tell us a little why all this App useless?

Well let me explain to you what is meant by vanilla and how its even possible for us to upgrade

The main things are EFI bootloader and your /Extras folder. That's about it and not to mention kexts

Hmm almost get there, Ive try to create my own cooked boot-132 for IBM T43 but ain't success, there is mach_kernel & go auto reboot after I run my retail 10.5 dvd install
For time being, Im on Leo4All, & it running fine. The thing is I don't like such installation, I prefer the retail install method. Me kinda newbie, & is it possible to use all the kext from Extensions.mkext to be used for my boot-132?
This is first time try install on notebook with boot-132 method
