Love these year old threads.
Flashing is what some other sites specialize in, or even troubleshooting non-Apple cards.
There is an AMD Mac Edition 7950. Now. As well as EVGA GTX 680.
All of those were tested and reported on by Barefeats - back in March-May 2013.
Apple? not interested in PC cards other than they have quietly added more driver support in 10.8.3 and especially above. Not in 10.8.2.
Be interesting to see what Maverick support provides as far as GPUs.
And netkas and others are up on PC graphic cards, not Apple, even if they don't write drivers, they do often write how to flash a PC card and support. Apple and this discussion, no.

    When I start up in Boot Camp it says that updates weren't properly installed and the system is reloading.  It then automatically restarts in Mountain Lion. What is wrong?
    I am currently using Windows 8 and also have Microsoft office installed but those are the only thing on my partitioned space.  I don't know if I installed 32 or 64 version of Windows 8.  Could that be the problem?

    Can you deal with XP not being supported by Apple and Microsoft? no security etc?
    Can you use Windows in a VM instead of natively?
    All the drives other than the one with XP will need to be pulled.
    Always have backups of your system, clone that you can boot from.
    Boot Camp 3.0 was the last supported. You don't need OEM 10.4.6 DVD and your system with EFI and SMC updates (Aug/Sept 2007) may not like it.
    32-bit version of Windows on EFI-32 will only get 1.9GB RAM.
    Installing 64-bit Windows 7 is a bit harder. Vista pre-SP1 64-bit was the best match for install on my 1,1 and that was 2006-2007.
    The new owner needs to deal with this, not you. And really they are better off with a $400 PC instead. Or use a VM.
    the owner should put in a new SSD for the system and $44 buys 4 x 2GB RAM. Together it will run just fine. 500GB SSD now $250 / $135 250GB. Biggest issue is a video card on these.
    The grey screen - you upgraded the graphic card perhaps.
    Unplug everything. Hit power for 5-10 seconds. Reconnect cables for mouse/kb and power, and monitor. You just reset SMC. Yes there is a small button - pull drive #4 and any controller in top slot #4 to see the SMC motherboard reset button but you don't need to.
    Any PCIe cards can also play a role and factor into XP or Windows not working.

    Your wifi problem sounds very much like the problem I had. The wifi would drop out, the icon showed it was still connected. If I turned it off, I couldn't turn it back on. Another user here pointed me to the problem, which was the wifi cable (the flat cable goint from the card to the motherboard). I found it on ebay for $13 and it's been running fine since I replaced it. This is the repair guide for your machine. The part number will be on there if you click the link.

    I need to upgrade my first generation Macbook Air 1,1 to Lion OS x10. I need to install other  software that requires 10.7 also a java update that requires 10.7. I am currently on Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and my macbook Air 1.1 will not go up to Mountain Lion. The Lion software update 10.7 is no longer available from the store or downloads.
    Where do I get this?
    It was only released a couple of months ago.
    I really feel disinfranchised already by not being able to upgrade and keep up with other software needs but to not allow me to update to my full capacity is really ridiculous.

  • Apple Mail Search and Spotlight do not work for locating email messages after upgrading to Lion 10.8.3.

    Apple Mail Search and Spotlight do not work for locating email messages after upgrading to Lion 10.8.3 on my 27" iMac.
    When searching in Apple Mail, sometimes a get a few results (with many missing), and sometimes no results at all.
    I had absolutely no problems before with Snow Loepard.
    I have reindexed mail and my startup drive. I have followed discussions regarding this matter and tried everything - a waste of time.
    This is VERY serious for me - I have many thousands of messages that I archive and need to reference for work and clients, and now I cannot find them.

    I found out that I needed a $100 mini displayport to dual-link dvi adapter to make my $30" cinema display work with my macbook pro
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB571Z/A/mini-displayport-to-dual-link-dvi-ada pter?fnode=51
    When I found out that solved the problem, I took it back because that was too expensive for a stupid adapter, and it still didn't work perfectly.

    You should not. But it never hurts to have a backup because bad things can happen.

    Your install disk must look like this

    Those gray disks are machine specific and will only work with model of Mac that they shipped with.

    You need to contact Apple and order and purchase the next Upgrade Disk, Snow Leopard 10.6.3, install that and then update that to 10.6.8.  You didn't give enough information to know if you need to then Upgrade that to Mountain Lion 10.8 in the Mac App Store by purchasing that,  Or even IF your computer is capable of Upgrading to 10.8.
    OS X Mountain Lion system requirements

    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
    Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
    Xserve (Early 2009)

    8 GB or more of available space
    Hope this helps

  • Hi - was looking to buy a macbook air soon but wanted to get it with lion software....anyone know when that is available and second question is what is best software for personal money management that works with lion.....use quicken now   thanks

    Hi - was looking to buy a macbook air soon but wanted to get it with lion software....anyone know when that is available and second question is what is best software for personal money management that works with lion.....use quicken now   thanks

    quicken should work with lion.
    Quicken Essentials will work with Lion.  Most people that have used Quicken for a while (i.e. Quicken 2007) have found that Quicken Essentials isn't much better than a basic spreadsheet.  It is a significant step down from previous versions and does not offer many of the features previously offered.  Right now, it seems like the two most common options are iBank and MoneyDance.
    Frankly... this is a major opportunity for these companies.  The largest commercial distributor of this type of product has been Intuit (Quicken).  That makes it hard for any other company to get any of that market as so many people were already using Quicken and may have had years of data stored in it.  Now, with Quicken effectively out of the picture, it's a great chance for another company.  Just imagine if iPhones were suddenly off the market.  That would give other manufacturers a tremendous opportunity since they wouldn't have to fight an up hill battle against a market giant.

  • Graphic drivers and latest kernel

    After I upgraded my computer to the latest kernel I got problems with my graphicdrivers.
    KDEmod starts normaly and t is no problems to just use it.
    But when I run glxgears I got just 7 FPS.
    When it works normal I got 700-800 FPS, and if I reinstall my drivers and start up kdemod it be normal, then after some hours in use the FPS running low.

    You might want to tell us which driver you're using...

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    I don't know why Apple recommended you to upgrade to Mountain Lion, because it shouldn't solve anything related to your documents.
    As I can see, you are not using the latest Office update, so install 14.2.5 update for free > http://www.microsoft.com/mac/downloads?pid=Mactopia_Office2011&fid=0F4E073F-4FEC -440D-A9BF-1E01EE9E92AD#viewer If you can't install it, install 14.2.3 first

  • Macbook air locks up instead of standby. Cannot wake with screen black and no sound. Have to hold power button for total restart. Happened with Mountain Lion and Maverick

    I've had this issue since first buying my MBA mid-2013. Instead of going to standby, which works 98% of the time, every now and again it appears to go into standby with the screen black, but no amount of key pressing or mouse moving will wake it up. I am forced to hold down power button for a manual restart and faced with losing work. This problem has occured whilst using Mountain Lion and still occuring since updating to Maverick.

    Hi there, GoreLeech,
    as per above extract from your error log, you have experienced a kernel panic due to problems with your Nvidea GeForce GT 330 M graphics card that has a 256 MB memory.
    This may be due to the card not having enough memory for what you are doing, the only thing, I can suggest here is to call Apple, and get the machine checked out. You can run the Apple hardware test at home but I'd recommend getting it booked in with Apple. What is worse: A computer that randomly malfunctions, or doing without it for up to one week (often they repair it within a day!)?
