For that combo you have, there should be full support for AMD OverDrive and as an alternative MSI Control Center for enabling somewhat of easy overclock. Should bring you a few more FPS.

For the graphic card, the Catalyst Control has one feature for overclocking it, it need be enabled by accepting one item in the menu.

As usual, use these features with a bit of carefulness, do not overdo it as it may cause instability or damage.

    help with installing 2 os on one hd

    RedMoose:
    Congratulations on installing an upgraded HDD into your PowerBook.
    I am not sure exactly what happened in the formatting process, but here are some directions that should help:
    Formatting, Partitioning Zeroing a Hard Disk Drive
    Warning! This procedure will destroy all data on your Hard Disk Drive. Be sure you have an up-to-date, tested backup of at least your Users folder and any third party applications you do not want to re-install before attempting this procedure.
    Boot from the install CD holding down the "C" key.
    Select language
    Go to the Utilities menu (Tiger) Installer menu (Panther & earlier) and launch Disk Utility.
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in left side bar.
    Select Partition tab in main panel. (You are about to create a single partition volume.)
    Select number of partition in pull-down menu above Volume diagram.
    (Note: 1 partition is normally better for an internal HDD. External HDDs usually have more than one. See Dr. Smoke’s FAQ Backup and Recovery for tips on partitioning external HDD.)
    Type in name in Name field (usually Macintosh HD)
    Select Volume Format as Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    Click Partition button at bottom of panel.
    Select Erase tab
    Optional: (Select the sub-volume under Manufacturer ID (usually Macintosh HD).
    Check to be sure your Volume Name and Volume Format are correct.
    Select on Security Options button (Tiger) Options button (Panther & earlier).
    Select Zero all data. (This process will map out bad blocks on your HDD. However, it could take several hours. If you want a quicker method, don't go to Security Options and just click the Erase button.)
    Click OK.
    Click Erase button
    Quit Disk Utility.
    Open installer and begin installation process.
    Please post back with further questions, comments or an update.
    Good luck.

  • I need help with my operating system

    Okay, little bit of background:
    I bought the iMac second hand from a family friend who we no longer have contact with, the operating system etc was already installed.
    The disk drive on the mac is broke (I dont have the disks anyway, so it would be no use)
    I never purchased the operating system, like I said, it was pre-loaded.
    A few programmes weren't running correctly and the computer was just generally running slowly, so I decided to just restore the system as there was no important data on it and it would run faster in the end, and I figured the programmes would run properly again once restored.
    Anyway, I unknowingly deleted the operating system in the process of the restore (I thought it would only delete personal data like it does on my windows PC)
    I have no restore disk (a broken disk drive anyway), my apple ID was not used to buy the operating system, so therefore it cant be used to restore the operating system, I also never backed up the harddrive externally so it cant be reinstalled from that.
    My problem: I have no operating system and no way of recovering it. I read about Mavericks and because its free, I decided to try and download it, but with no operating system, the mac can only run 'Safari' and wont save things I try to download to the harddrive (it just says theres no space and the download doesnt happen). I also tried to access the App Store from Safari to try to download OS X lion on my apple ID, but once again, when using Safari on a mac without an operating system, it is very restrictive and I cant access the download page.
    I have no idea what to do and live miles away from the nearest apple store.
    Thanks in advance for any help provided by anyone.
    Jordan.
    Additional information:
    Its a 2007 iMac which was running OS X Lion 10.7.4 (I think, it was definitely Lion though).
    Serial No. is W8*******X85
    <Edited by Host>

    Ah. Well, then you have an itty-bitty problem. You need to backup your files to start with. You will need your retail Snow Leopard installer DVD which your friend should have provided to you. If he did not then ask him to bring it to you. It belongs to you along with the original distribution discs that came with computer when it was new.
    Do the following once you have the Snow Leopard DVD:
    Clean Install of Snow Leopard
    Be sure to make a backup first because the following procedure will erase
    the drive and everything on it.
         1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
             with your computer.  Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
             After the chime press and hold down the  "C" key.  Release the key when you see
             a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
         2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
             button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
             After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
             size.)  Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.  Set the number of
             partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
             and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
             (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
         3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed
             with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
         4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
             Assistant. Be sure you configure your initial admin account with the exact same
             username and password that you used on your old drive. After you finish Setup
             Assistant will complete the installation after which you will be running a fresh
             install of OS X.  You can now begin the update process by opening Software
             Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your installation current.
    Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.
    Upgrading to Lion
    You can purchase Lion at the Online Apple Store. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
    After you sign into your App Store account with your Apple ID click on the Redeem option under Quick Links to download your copy of Lion.
    As an aside to this: All actual 2007 iMacs are able to run Mavericks. So rather than buying Lion you may prefer to upgrade to Mavericks which is Free.

  • Need help with speed remapping

    So here is my question. (check pic below to see timeline)
    I'm working on a timeline and I have a clip somewhere in the middle of this timeline. Now I've put the two markers which close off the area of the clip that I want in slow-motion. And then I drag the rubberband now to 50%. This causes the clip to obviously become longer.
    But the problem is that it doesn't push the clip that comes afterwards, it just sort of submerges and I lose a part of the clip that I put into slow-mo.
    http://gyazo.com/0cce5ab07e22897f21a25e3308a9cbb5.png Here's a picture of my timeline.
    So my question is how can I make it so that the clip after is pushed forward automatically?
    I know how to fix this problem with some dragging and pulling, but I want to become as efficient as I can and don't get into any bad habits.
    Thanks!

    If all you want to do is simply slow down or speed up a clip, use the Speed/Duration settings--it's probably the simplest way to induce a speed change. This is a constant speed change, which you can also do with Time Remapping--which is what I think you've been doing.
    The benefit of Time Remapping is that it allows for variable speed changes within a single instance of a clip. Say for example you want your clip to start at 100% speed, slow down immediately to 25%, and then speed up immediately to 200%. You can do this with Speed/Duration, simply by razoring the clip at the specific points where you want the speed change to occur, and then altering the Speed/Duration setting for that instance of the clip. With Time Remapping, not only can you do this without having to chop up the clip, but you can also create "ramps" from one speed to another--hence the variable speed aspect. You can even freeze a clip or reverse it, all without editing the clip into smaller pieces. This can result in a much smoother effect, but it might not always be what you're after. Time Remapping does have a bit of a learning curve, but it really is the more powerful option of the two. You just have to decide which is better for your purposes.
    An additional benefit, and I might be wrong on this, but I believe that using the Time Remapping function results in (theoretically) a higher quality speed change effect due to a different algorithm or some-such. It uses some different techniques to generate the interpolated frames created in a speed change, that should look smoother than if they were done with the Speed/Duration command.
    Hope the helps a bit.

  • Software to help with speed

    Software to speed up macbook.

    There is no software provided with a Mac that does surface scanning. I looked into this some time ago. The best link I could find summarizing drive testing software is this:
    http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1544280
    That list covers everything from the free to the expensive and from sngle purpose tools to multi purpose tools.
    Index correction with Disk Utility is not the same thing as surface scanning the drive, period.
    I don't buy a number of the critiques above. Not everyone wants to or can afford to be reliant on Apple for everything. Not everyone has an Apple store down the street, and not everyone can or is willing to afford to take their systems into Apple for costly diagnostics.
    If Apple's tools were so wonderful, why are people using Disk Warrior to recover drives when Disk Utility can't? Using some of the logic above I have to assume that since Disk Utility is an Apple system tool, if a drive can't be recovered we shoiuld simply throw our hands in the air, rush off to Apple, and heve them swap out a $60 drive for about $400...whereas others could proceed to get their drive back in working order.
    If Apple's tools are so wonderful, why is it that TechTool Pro, Drive Genius, and Scannerz can all tell you that the spinning beach you keep getting is because of a failed sector at  block XXXXXX on the hard drive, whereas Disk Utility reports everything is just fine....go ahead....keep using that drive. There are good reasons third party tools exist.
    As another example, I have an old PPC PowerBook that I gave my daughter. These are now selling in excellent condition on eBay for $50-$75. Do you seriously expect me to take that system in to Apple to diagnose a drive problem if I can do it with Scannerz Lite for 17 bucks, while Apple, if they'll even deal with the old  system, wants upwards of $300. You have got to be crazy!!
    I see nothing wrong with third party tools that work proplerly. Scannerz, Drive Genius, TechTools Pro, and Disk Warrior all cost money, they're all made by third party companies, and they all work. I've ended up using Scannerz myself and I'm pretty sure I've linked to the company in some of my posts.
    The realitiy is: Some things cost money and some people are going to charge you money for products. When this changes, please let me know so I can rush down to the Apple store to pick up my new, free Mac Pro.

  • Help with speed issue : who to contact

    I have BT Infinity 2 via HH5 and speeds are as follows;
    Wireless: DL 38M and UL 8M
    Ethernet: DL 38M and UL 8M
    and the above is a constant result, ethernet is not any faster
    I completed the BTWholesale speed test and get the same result. However, if I run the further diagnostics the information that comes back highlights the download in red and says I should contact my BB supplier.
    I note also that the range for DL is very tight with a max below 40M, however I am on BT Infinity 2 as upload shows max of 20M. The HH5 indicates that the DL synch rate is normally nearer 45M, so i am wondering if some equipment needs resetting at the exchange.
    So can anybody add clues, solutions or provide the best contact number to get this matter resolved.

  • Please help with Sun Java System Communications Sync crashe with IEx 7.x

    Dear All!
    Recently i've upgrade my IExplorer to 7.x version. After that i began to have problems with Communications Sync (latest version). When i try to sync Outlook 2003 with the server (SSL connection/ self signed certificate) the Comm Sync asks if i want to allow to open connection with wrong certificate (happed only after installing IEx 7.x) and then when i press YES it crashes.
    Any help on how to fix this problem is appriciated.
    Konstantin
    P.S.: Adding a self signed certificate to IEx DB and adding the website to the trusted websites list did not help.

    Hi,
    Not sure how much we can help with this issue - especially if you are already running the latest version of the sync tool. About all I can offer is to uninstall your current sync software and reinstall the latest public version:
    http://sunsolve.sun.com/private-cgi/getpatch.pl (search for patch #124734).
    If that doesn't help I suggest you log a sun support case for this (assuming you have a sun support contract that is).
    Regards,
    Shane.

    Sorry I was looking at the wrong board (G41M-P33 Combo)
    Both boards support up to 4GB according to support site, and share the same PCB by the look of it, the only difference seems to be the HDMI and DVI-D ports.
    It looks like the P33 has a sticker over the board model but this may be just edited in the photo.

    Ah I see, my P33 board is missing the sticker that was over the original printing of the board,
    the specs of the P33 does say 8GB max and the E43 says 4GB max, hmm.. the P33 has an upgrade yet downgrade with less output options
    Thank you for all your help!! the missing sticker was the confusion :-)

  • Can anyone help with a good system maintenance tool for ML

    Does any one have any suggestions for a good dependable all-in-one system maintenance tool for ML and is it straight forward and easy to use?
    Thanks in advance .....

    You really have no need for one. That said:
    Kappy's Personal Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
    For disk repairs use Disk Utility.  For situations DU cannot handle the best third-party utilities are: Disk Warrior;  DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.x is now Intel Mac compatible. Drive Genius provides additional tools not found in Disk Warrior.  Versions 1.5.1 and later are Intel Mac compatible.
    OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.)
    If you are using a pre-Leopard version of OS X, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep.  Dependence upon third-party utilities to run the periodic maintenance scripts was significantly reduced since Tiger.  (These utilities have limited or no functionality with Snow Leopard, Lion, or Mountain Lion and should not be installed.)
    OS X automatically defragments files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive. As for virus protection there are few if any such animals affecting OS X. You can protect the computer easily using the freeware Open Source virus protection software ClamXAV. Personally I would avoid most commercial anti-virus software because of their potential for causing problems. For more about malware see Macintosh Virus Guide.
    I would also recommend downloading a utility such as TinkerTool System, OnyX 2.4.3, or Cocktail 5.1.1 that you can use for periodic maintenance such as removing old log files and archives, clearing caches, etc.
    For emergency repairs install the freeware utility Applejack.  If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the command line.  Note that AppleJack 1.5 is required for Leopard. AppleJack 1.6 is compatible with Snow Leopard. (There is no confirmation that this version also works with Lion or later.)
    When you install any new system software or updates be sure to repair the hard drive and permissions beforehand. I also recommend booting into safe mode before doing system software updates.
    Get an external Firewire drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
      1. Carbon Copy Cloner.
      2. Data Backup
      3. Deja Vu
      4. SuperDuper!
      5. SyncTwoFolders
      6. Synk Pro
      7. Synk Standard
      8. Tri-Backup
    Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQs on maintenance, optimization, virus protection, and backup and restore.
    Always have a current backup before performing any system updates or upgrades.
    Additional suggestions will be found in
       1. Mac Maintenance Quick Assist,

    Be sure you have an adequate amount of RAM installed for the number of applications you run concurrently. Be sure you leave a minimum of 10% of the hard drive's capacity or 20 GBs, whichever is greater, as free space.

  • Please help with speed issues and powerline adapte...

    Hello all,
    I have had infinity for a few months now and I am very unhappy with the quality of service so far, I wont go into that however,
    the problems I currently have are:
    speed dropped from 76.8Mbps down to 34.6Mbps within a week of going live, they have replaced my HH3 twice to try and remedy this but its still the same, anything you can recommend?
    as for the powerline adapters, i bought 2 extra when I took out my infinity package, all 4 have failed twice, they have been replaced aswell, received a new set this morning to install and they don't work!
    When I set them up I get the green data light and green power light, however once I plug the Ethernet cables in, the data lights go off after around 10sec,
    no matter how many times I reset and marry them its the same output, then maybe they will work for around 10-15 minutes and then go off again.
    I have 4 adapters in use ATM
    2 for vision and 2 for my computer 
    bt sent me 2 different models for some reason
    I have the white simpler networks ones, 2 have black writing and 2 have orange,
    sorry for the essay but from the experience I have had from BT so far I am not impressed
    thankyou for any help in advance
    regards  

    Ratty2012 wrote:
    The 200mbps refers to the theoretical duplex speed and not the actual connection speed. In ideal conditions the actual is about 70 to 80mbps for the 200 adapters. So therefore most of the time in normal conditions they connect at a much lower speed.
    That's what I meant, hence why would you get 500Mbps ones if they ain't going to reach unless you're going to have your house wiring upgraded if the speed is rubbish. Didn't mean to be rude xD

  • I need help with doing a system wipe/re-install

    I want to completely wipe my Macbook Pro (running Mountain Lion) and do a OS reinstall so that it is as if it was just taken out of the box. I have already moved files I want to keep over to an external. My question is this, do I need to do anything in regards to Microsoft Office or iTunes? Do I need to deauthorize my iTunes or my Microsoft Office activation code? Also, how do I even go about doing this system reset?

    Follow these instructions step by step to prepare a Mac for sale:
    Step One - Back up your data:
           A. If you have any Virtual PCs shut them down. They cannot be in their "fast saved" state. They must be shut down from inside Windows.
           B. Clone to an external drive using using Carbon Copy Cloner.
              1. Open Carbon Copy Cloner.
              2. Select the Source volume from the Select a source drop down menu on the left side.
              3. Select the Destination volume from the Select a destination drop down menu on the right
                  side.
              4. Click on the Clone button. If you are prompted about creating a clone of the Recovery HD be
                  sure to opt for that.
                   Destination means a freshly erased external backup drive. Source means the internal
                   startup drive.
    Step Two - Prepare the machine for the new buyer:
              1. De-authorize the computer in iTunes! De-authorize both iTunes and Audible accounts.
              2, Remove any Open Firmware passwords or Firmware passwords.
              3. Turn the brightness full up and volume nearly so.
              4. Turn off File Vault, if enabled.
              5. Disable iCloud, if enabled: See.What to do with iCloud before selling your computer
    Step Three - Install a fresh OS:
         A. Snow Leopard and earlier versions of OS X
              1. Insert the original OS X install CD/DVD that came with your computer.
              2. Restart the computer while holding down the C key to boot from the CD/DVD.
              3. Select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu; repartition and reformat the internal hard drive.
                  Optionally, click on the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass.
              4. Install OS X.
              5. Upon completion DO NOT restart the computer.
              6. Shutdown the computer.
         B. Lion and Mountain Lion (if pre-installed on the computer at purchase*)
             Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because
                       it is three times faster than wireless.
              1. Restart the computer while holding down the COMMAND and R keys until the Mac OS X
                  Utilities window appears.
              2. Select Disk Utility from the Mac OS X Utilities window and click on the Continue button.
              3. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the left side list. Click
                  on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
              4. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on the Security button
                  and set the Zero Data option to one-pass.
              5. Click on the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
              6. Quit DU and return to the Mac OS X Utilities window.
              7. Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Install button.
              8. Upon completion shutdown the computer.
    *If your computer came with Lion or Mountain Lion pre-installed then you are entitled to transfer your license once. If you purchased Lion or Mountain Lion from the App Store then you cannot transfer your license to another party. In the case of the latter you should install the original version of OS X that came with your computer. You need to repartition the hard drive as well as reformat it; this will assure that the Recovery HD partition is removed. See Step Three above. You may verify these requirements by reviewing your OS X Software License.
