Hi, I have purchased XFX GT240 512M DDR5. And installed it on my Dell Optiplex 760. It works great.

Thank You for your advice..
but i have a small problem.
How can i edit the Info.plist as i am not able to boot into Lion in single user mode.
I have freshly installed Lion so I do not have any other MAC OS X installed on my HDD to reach Info.plist
Can any 1 please guide to boot into my installed Lion in single user mode ?
The Command -s does not work and leads me to "Cannot find Keyboard error" ..plz help

btw the guide is simply awesome ..thanx pippox0

re-editing this post...
booting in single user mode gives this error :
BootCacheControl: Unable to open /var/db/BootCache.playlist: 2 No such file or directory
after this,the keyboard error appears
just cannot enter single user mode to edit info.plist

I'm booting with verbose mode (chameleon RC5_947 on SL and Lion) (copied SL boot.plist & smbios.plist)
I also tried another language, same error

My motherboard is a Gigabyte X48-DS5
Processor: Core2Duo E8500
Graphic card: Nvidia 9800GT

Keyboard: Razer Lycosa
Mouse: Razer Lachesis

And i'm using a USB HDD for booting Lion (Maxtor 250GB)
