Try the following in Terminal to determine the number of cores:

sysctl hw.physicalcpu
Are you certain you have your video card squared away?

Weird, it's detecting all 4 cores... Must be graphics card related then? Can't fix it if its graphics card related, it's not too big of a deal for me. Just a little annoying, could be Mac related since I know DIVX player for MAC has no problem playing HD content. But the problem with Divx Player for Mac is that it has a problem playing audio files so when I try to play a movie with Divx Player for Mac it will play it without sound. Seems like I can't win. :D

Also, does it hard my processor, cpu, graphics card, or sound card when I have to shut my computer off improperly each time I want to load Mac OS X? That is the weird way I get onto Mac OS X Lion.

Godofwar,

I have been out of the scene for some time but I believe that the GTX 570 is supported.

You may want to look at codecs first. You said you were using VLC, which is usually pretty good. Have you tried Perian (http://perian.org). Perian has a comprehensive pack of codecs that work with the quicktime. This includes most osx applications, including the quicktime player.

Does the issue occur with all video or certain ones. If it is certain files, check the properties within the player to see what the codec is. I have not run into many formats that that VLC player's codec pack or the Perian codec pack couldn't handle.

Lately Zipeg stops working at extracting files, and sometimes .dmg files will not open until I restart my Mac... Why?

Godofwar,

I am at a loss for those issues, especially if you are not getting a kernel panic.

.dmg opening issues that result in KP relate to mix-matched sandbox/kernel versions (http://osx86.co/f85/updated-11-12-dm...ox-kext-t1992/); however, your issues involves it just not working.

The AMD box in my signature suffered from a traumatic lightning strike. Before you chastise me for not having a proper surge suppressor, know that I did. It does not matter what kind of property installed surge suppressor or full-home protection you have, a direct hit will cause damage. I experience one strike years ago that erased every VHS and cassette tape in our home. FYI my home town is known to have more ground strikes than any other city in the world, but I digress. Prior to this mishap, I was experiencing issues where applications would not load after the machine was on for greater than 15 minutes. This was intermittent. I noticed that if I disabled my LAN and removed the next, I would not have these problems. Unfortunately I am unable to continue testing on this rig.

What I am trying to get at, is that you may have some problem kexts. I would make a list of all of the modified or additional files required to run your system. Try removing the non-essential files (audio/lan if applicable) and see if you still experience an issue.

You may also want to clear your console logs and start paying attention to what comes up after it fails to mount DMGs or extract files.

So it should work perfectly on mine, I got the exact same motherboard, video card (mine EVGA 570SC), and CPu than I see in your sig.

Snow Leopard work fine for me, in VirtualBox (it did has well in native hardware mode). Used Hazard AMD_Intel_sse2_sse3 iso, have to use flag busratio=17, but I need Lion for 2 things. GTX570 support and XCode 4.5.2 support.

BTW, is XCode working in Lion?
