ok, So i've followed your guide fully, to the degree that i've inputted the code into -s mode meaning I could log into 10.5.8 with my 260 active, and then done all terminal codings with no errors, but then when I come to reboot, it goes back to sleep on start up [monitor] :\

Anyone have any ideas of what im missing?

running a GTX260, which worked on the 285 drivers in 10.5.7

Hip-hipp hooray!!!!
Works like a charm for my GTX 260. Thank you so much - I was already desperate so many things I already tried. But it was woth the patience; I have now a fully working Hack (I call it "MacBobo") on a P5Q DeLuxe with untouched legacy BIOS, Q 9300 @ 2,5Ghz (stockspeed), 8GB DDR 2 GEIL @ 1066 Mhz, ASUS GTX 260.
Initial setup done on a 2nd rig with P5Q Pro mobo and modded BIOS from JUZZI, E 8400, 4GB DDR 2 800 and ASUS EN 8800 GTX EE; then transplanted the HDD into my main rig and everything booted right on exept the gfx card,which is done now also.

Cheers

Info added: Actually I run Slowleopard in 32-bit mode. Once i have all the 65-bit extensions together I will boot into 64bit mode. I hope the gfx card will still work then...

So I've spent days trying to get this to work and it isn't. I have an Asus P5B-Deluxe motherboard and a EVGA 896-P3-1264-AR GeForce GTX 260 SSC Edition 896MB 448-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Supported Video Card .

I installed OS X by formatting my external HD with 2 partitions. I copied my Snow Leopard installer to one partition and installed Snow Leopard to the other. I removed all the NV kexts from /System/Library/Extensions on the installer and used to EmpireEFI to boot the installer. Once it was installed, I booted into Single User Mode and followed http://www.infinitemac.com/f19/guide...leopard-t4057/ of moving the NV kexts. I booted into Snow Leopard ok and ran MyHack from the EmpireEFI disc http://osx86.sojugarden.com/installer/ installing com.apple.Boot.plist, GraphicEnabler, FakeSMC, FramebufferDisabler, JMicronATA, LegacyAppleRTC, NullCPUPowerManagerment, OpeHaltRestart, PlatformUUID, and SleepEnabler. I then ran System Update and updated to 10.6.2 and completed the rest of the guide on getting my GTX 260 working. When I booted I got a kernal panic on SleepEnabler, and realized I needed a newer one for 10.6.2, which I did. Next boot I got a black screen.

So I remove the NV kext's Snow Leopard boots perfectly and everything works great, but if I put them back I get a black screen still. Anyone have any idea why it isn't working? I added the stuff to both my com.apple.Boot.plist in /Library/Prefereces/SytemConfiguration and /Extras.

Thanks!

Is anybody watching this thread? Several people are having trouble (including me) getting this guide to work. I've tried it several times with my GTX 260 and Snow Leopard and continue to get the black screen. I'm not sure what else to do.

Huge problem.

The initial actions were great, booted me right into the GUI. It appears though that the actions taken afterward (which I double checked, to write everything in terminal verbatim) some how rendered my drive unboootable.

I now get:

Non-system disk
Press any key to reboot

right before it should be hitting Chameleon. I have yet to be replied to on any thread here I've posted in, it'd be appreciated if someone could help.

Thanks

Edit: I'm a goddamn moron. I left my USB stick in from the GFXstrings. You're a savior OP, thanks so much.
