The noobs first hack is alive.

[ginz111]

Ok my first hack attempt is alive.
Cost about $350 US.
First try with iDeneb but no luck. second try with iAtkos and the proper add ons and voila!

Gigabyte P31-ES3G
Core 2 Duo 2.0ghz
PNY 9600GT
250gb Seagate Sata

All is working well but the 9600gt is just showing up is system profiler as a PCIE card with only 32mb of ram and no core image hardware support or quartz extreme support. Can someone possibly steer me into the right direction in getting this minor obstacle solved for the noob?

Thanks in advance.

Ginz111,

Have a look here and download the files for your card, they are there:

Got it!
Thanks Aquamac!

I acutally did a reinstall and got ideneb working. much better than iatkos. now I just got to get the alc888 audio working. I installed the drivers but still not working.

Ok I am 100% now! All this baby needs now is a raid array and a case.

just built another with similar specs. 100% first try . Its a piece of cake with the right hardware combination. Guess I will have to get more adventurous now.
