wollvieh Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Hey! I'm getting this message everytime I boot into OS X in verbose mode: kernel[0]: WARNING: IOPlatformPluginUtil : getCPUIDInfo: this is an unknown CPU model 0x3a kernel[0]: -- power management may be incomplete or unsupported I run Mountain Lion GM on CPU: i5-3570K Mainboard: Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UD5H Model: MacMini5,1 It doesn't seem to affect my system, which runs quite smoothly (although it panic'd once or twice). Anyway, I'm a little confused about that message. I googled it a lot but couldn't find any help .. Does anyone have the same problem / know how to get rid of it? Respectively can someone tell me more about this issue? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockinron_1 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Probably because your using an Ivy Bridge CPU which isn't part of the Mac Mini 5,1 smbios. Try a different smbios which matches your configuration. Although if its purely cosmetic don't worry about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wollvieh Posted July 19, 2012 Author Share Posted July 19, 2012 Are you sure it's purely cosmetic? But thanks for your answer, I'm gonna try some other model identifiers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockinron_1 Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 I just assumed with you saying it runs smooth, personally I'be not used an Ivy Bridge yet. If you don't know you can use chameleon wizard to see which smbios suits your computer best http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=257464 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wollvieh Posted July 19, 2012 Author Share Posted July 19, 2012 well nope, the model identifier wasn't it .. I even tried some MacbookAir / Pro models Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
realaeon Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 well nope, the model identifier wasn't it .. I even tried some MacbookAir / Pro models I have the same ivy bridge CPU, the error code you are getting is because there's no smbios available for Ivy Bridge yet. I haven't experienced any problem using 10.7.4 or 10.8 with this error code. I'd wait until a new smbios is released but don't worry, performance is not affected.

All Kand Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Found this somewhere. Use with caution. MBP10,1 is the Retina while 9,1 and 9,2 is normal macbookpros with IVY BRIDGE SMbios.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eroxm Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 I'm having the same error shown while booting. OSX boots fine, but I'd like to have as less errors as possible. Is there a way to fix this with DSDT patch or something else? My mainboard is ASRock Z77 Extreme4 with Core i5-3570k. OSX is Yosemite. Bootloader is latest Chameleon. Graphics is nVidia GTX650.

Make sure you're using an smbios that supports ivy bridge. Either that or just ignore the error. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
