If you're doing well with SL (system which most Apple customers consider the pinnacle of OSX), and need a system to do serious work with it for a living, why upgrade, since you'd be limited to a possibly unstable 32-bit system (the 32-bit part is not a possibility, but a certainty)? The question is specially valid if you have Xcode coding in mind, since it simply won't work on your system.

Otherwise, if you think about it as a kind of enjoyable science experiment, or if a 32-bit system suit well your demands and you're willing to investing a lot of time fine-tuning your machine, or both (my case), then you should keep on trying.

Snow Leopard is not compatible with GTX 570. Thank apple for never releasing drivers for this operating system, and for some reason no one is smart enough to make hacked drivers to make gtx 570/500 series work with snow leopard. I really don't get why the same drivers for the 400 series on apple do not work with the 500 series. It makes 0 sense to me. I know on windows, 8000 series, 200 series, 400 series, 500 series, all use the same drivers for Nvidia. The resolution is ugly on my 1920 x 1200 resolution when its force to 1024x resolution. Also, I keep getting a beachball loading on Snow Leopard and I have no idea why, it randomly does it at times.

Godofwar, try these tutorials for Lion:

http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/ind...owtopic=278181 (I got it to work using this one)

http://www.hack-my-mac.fr/index.php/...fx-buldo#28896 (this is very good also)

Back up your Snow Leo before trying any of them. Report back, we're all helped when we know that something really works and how (by the way, hey, xmaniak!, did the drivers work?).

The simplest and cheapest is that you pass the bull and you profiteras FX graphics acceleration with Lion 10.7.


Macmini early 2006 /blanGsak 10.7.2
Acer 8930 G / core2duo T6500 / NV 9600 GS m / Lion 10.7.3 / ML 10.8.2 / w7/8
Asus M5A97pro / FX 8350 / Asus HD 7950 CUII v2
GA-78LMT SP2 / FX 6100 / P x4 960t / Sapphire HD 4850 1024
MSI K9neo v1 / Atlon 4800+/ Gigabyte HD 5450 512
test kernel 12.0 AMD

Tuto : http://www.hack-my-mac.fr/index.php/...fx-buldo#28896

CG opérationnelle : HD 5450 512 / HD 4850 1 / GT 610

Maan I just got the card today...however i found out my brother misbought Audigy SE instead of VX... i thing its not the same audio chip so kx wont work...anything else?

I would try it anyway but i want to be at least 70% sure before rewriting OS on my SSD... I think its gonna die soon

The thing is that on the kx web they have this (Audigy SE/LS which is not EMU10K(1 or 2) will not work!) however on wikipedia it writes that Audigy SE has EMU10K2 which is supported

Could i actually test whether audio will work on VM??

EDIT on other web I found that it is chip Audigy

Ham4ever, i would try the following: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/ind...owtopic=113288

xmaniak100, you can try the kx drivers with your Audigy. The worst thing that can happen is that the drivers don't work. Is your SSD broken? Vmware and other virtualization software emulate their own card, so the answer is no, you can't.

Its not broken yet hovever i cahnge my OS like 100 times a mounth and i am feeling that its dieing

Well I know but i dont have a disk to back up my system so i wanna be sure...could i test with kx drivers for windows??? are they the same?

The problem is that i dunno whether there is no post about that card because its impossible to make it work or because its so easy
