Reverted to Chameleon 2.1 rev 1819 and my 9800GT worked, no more black screen.


EDIT: Also worked with 1902

What if we get a DP2 xpchelper and we replace it???

System
  • MoBo: MSI K9N2GM-FD, Chipset GeForce 8200 (MCP78)
  • CPU: AMD Athlon 64 X2 5200+ @3,02 Ghz
  • RAM: Kingston 2GB DDR2 800Mhz + Corsair 2GB DDR2 800Mhz @747Mhz
  • VGA: EVGA 9800GT SSC
  • HDD: 300GB WD SATAII
  • Optical Drive: Sony SATA 24X
  • OS: Vanilla Mac OS X Server 10.6.0 + Nawcom ModCD, upgraded to 10.6.8 and Windows 7 x64.
Everything works, except sleep, so system isn't Energy Star compilant .

AMD System Hangs "Waiting for Windows Server"

Hi
I have an amd box here that has been running 10.5 and 10.6 for a few years now, nice and stable....
With Lion, I grabbed Bronzovka's kernel, copied an Intel box installation of 10.7.3 over to a partition on the AMD box and started tinkering...
Set boot flags per various posts....

Added Kext's ...
So far no joy, just hangs .... Waiting for Windows Server
Now the Intel box had intelchipset while the AMD box has the Nvidia chipset

So I'm wondering if I need to add more Kexts???
I've got FAKESMC, IOUSBMassStorage, Evoreboot, NullCPUPower, IOUSBFamily, JMicron36, IONetworking Family, and Elliott...

Please let me know about other Kexts.

AMD is Athlon 64 X2 3800+ Brand ID 4 Socket AM2,

Cheers

Hey guys i ran into more problems recently and was hoping that u can help me...

1. =Sometimes when i boot it is stuck on spinning apple logo and when i am in verbose it hangs after DSMOS arrives so i think it just could get into GUI... (if i wait a little i see 251 errors...is that xpchelper???)

2. =When I enter fullscreen on some apps(like preview or angry birds space) and I click quit fullscreen my PC either gets KP or goes into login with message that your computer was shut down to prevent damage

Anybody could fix it???...

And my AMD is model 5... I am using the only one kernel i have found...no idea what version it is... if you could give me link for newest kernel for AMD model 5 i would be very happy...

If you have Snow Leopard and don't have windows and need to use CPU-Z to check cpu, use CPU-X as an alternative (download here)

This is not really for AMD, so it shows some of the items

AFAIK, most modern O/S use PAE (Physical Address Extension) which allows 32-bits x86 processors to access a physical address space (including random access memory and memory mapped devices) larger than 4GB

This is what I get, just gets stuck loading. This is restored L2 on hard drive with chameleon on USB stick. Booting with -v -legacy npci=0x2000 GraphicsEnabler=yes

I just don't know what's wrong. It's not the fakesmc, and it's a AMD B50 Phenom. Family F, Model 4.
