Got mine working, had to do first boot using a nVidia 9600GT using -v PCIRootUID=1

Then followed these two guides
http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/lofiversion/index.php/t260074.html
http://tonymacx86.com/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=25858

Modified my NVDAGF100Hal.kext and added the following device IDs

0x120010de&0xffc0ffff <---- GTX 560Ti
0x120110de&0xffc0ffff <---- GTX 560
for GTX560 and GTX560TI support (My GF will be getting her PC hackintosh'd soon

) so multi tasking

Installed CUDA Drivers from http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/4_0/drivers/devdriver_4.0.21_macos.dmg

Enabling Open CI

- Follow these instructions from netkas:
link: http://netkas.org/?p=794
You will need a HexEditor for that though. http://hexedit.sourceforge.net/

Not done the Open CI part yet, but so far it's running smoothly

Copying this for others:-
About GraphicsMode:

Do not enable GraphicsMode -- this will lead to breaking 3D apps!
If you modify your com.boot.plist manually leave the line with GraphicsMode blank.

Code:

<key>Graphics Mode</key>
<string></string>

Do you have to install drivers for this card to work?

I added the device id.
I set graphics enabler and graphics mode appropriately.
Set npci=0x2000 (would not boot without this)

Now i have video running off the card but im not sure what im missing. I can not change the resolution, its set at something like 1024x768.

Do i need the quadro drivers?
http://www.nvidia.com/object/quadro-mac ... river.html

Do i need the cuda drivers?
http://www.nvidia.com/object/macosx-cud ... river.html

Do i need the GeForceGLDriver.bundle ?
(i have no idea where to get this or what to do with it once i have it)

1. Yes you need to install CUDA manually.
2. No, you do not need Quadro drivers.
3. GeForceGLDriver.Bunble should already be installed

All you should have to do is modify the NVDAGF100Hal.kext with the device ID for it to run

what did you use to install the kext? kext helper b7?

I've attached my modified kext (For GTX 560 Ti)

1. Will install the cuda drivers.
2. Will skip the Quadro drivers. (straight install from nvidia's website?)
3. Looks like the GeForceGLDriver.bundle addresses power management or sleep function? Will have to look into that more when the time comes.

I changed the device ID in the kext file using terminal.
Would hang at boot apple logo until i added npci=0x2000. I think the npci is a bandaid for a different issue but im not sure what could be wrong.

ugg, installed the cuda drivers, still do not have full support. cant change resolution at all.

Update
So, i am a moron. When adding the device ID for my video card i use a colon instead of a semi colon. Changed that and the card works great.

Thanks for your help.

I am about to get a GTX 560 (NON-Ti), does it work fine under Lion? (full acceleration?)
Thanks!
