i ran full tests on the cores and stress tested them after i unlocked them they passed all tests. but i have tried it with acc off. i acidently triggered a bios reset when fooling around with it earlier and did not realize i was on dual cores again till i went to tell you what cpu i had earlier. but ill try again in a min about to take a break.

I just tried this with acc on and off. 3.0ghz. screen shots attached. I even turned off the gsata lost my dvd but since osx was installed i did not see a problem testing that.

That's weird. What about booting with "-f -x32" or "-f arch=i386" ?

j71rivera 07-20-2010 04:40 PM

Just Tried both. -f -x32 and -f arch=i386 same panic.Did you have to patch dsdt or apple.boot.com plist? if you did maybe i could see yours.

Here you go. Don't care about the "bt(0,0)" in some lines, I'm using hidden partition to store my kernel, DSDT and some other stuff, and it tells the bootloader to load them from this partition.
Snow Leopard booted fine without DSDT patched, you just patch it to get rid of some additional kexts like "EliottForceLegacyRTC".

Maybe your kernel panic is somehow connected with your graphics card ? When you boot in Safe Mode, OS X doesn't load some kexts (also the graphics ones).

But i did not install any drivers for the video card. i avoided it like you said. so even though its not loading drivers for ati maybe some basic video driver is freaking out?
ill be checking the mod i just did to my system after work here in 45 mins. then ill havet o figure out what video drivers are being loaded.that might be caseing the crash and see if i can remove them.

OS X has drivers for many graphics card installed by default, but you usually need to make the system recognize your gpu (by using enablers, efi strings or injecting info into DSDT).
Another thing : boot into safe mode and check in "System Profiler" if your pc isn't recognized as "MacPro4,1".

j71rivera 07-21-2010 12:35 AM

it calls itself MacPro3.1

Ok Im not sure the "Exact" kext that was causing the problem because i went in and took out all the NV navida ones and all the ati ones that had nothing to do with my 4850 and the geforce drivers and OMG it booted. Im going to redo my install i think i messed something up in the install but to load and not be in safeboot was a godsend. I now see hope. hay BTW what sound kext did you use. becuase i had no sound. Thanks for your help.

I guess there's even a better way to boot with HD4850 without removing other kexts, but anyway I'm glad you finally got it working ;)
Get sound kext here : VoodooHDA. I tried patching DSDT and modifying original AppleHDA, but it doesn't work - It only shows HDA device in System Profiler, but no outputs/inputs. VoodooHDA isn't as good as AppleHDA, but it works, even pretty well.
And if you need kext for Realtek 8111D, it's that one : R1000SL
