kyndder Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 So you flash the Bios with the UEFI firmware of P67A-UD3-B3?? That's amazing! XD Won't it be dangerous? Yes... Extremely dangerous... I bet all my coins in this modification... Luckly, I had success... I'm wondering why gigabyte don't release other firmware for P67, since it seems you don't get much problem with the un-mach firmware, do you? I really don't know why... All functions are working perfectly... I can say that the overall performance actually improved... But to do this, you need to be sure of similarity between your current BIOS and the one that you want to record... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But to do this, you need to be sure of similarity between your current BIOS and the one that you want to record... Can you get me some instruction about how to flash the firmware? Or you just used the official exe without any other "patch"? My mb has the same hardware component to P67A-UD3-B3's. According to Gigabyte's website, the only difference is on USB2.0 and "Dolby Home Theater". By the way, does the USB 3.0 work now with Clover? PS. I notice that your mb has different USB3.0 controller with the P67A-UD3-B3 one. Update: Gigabyte made one UEFI firmware for me....

p.H Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 Right value is not calculable. It is done from real Mac reports as collection for many-many CPUs info. I can tell you how Clover do this: just 80 lines of C-codes. if so, how about cpus that Apple don't use ? For example, my spec i3-380m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slice Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 if so, how about cpus that Apple don't use ? For example, my spec i3-380m And how do you tell Apple to show CPU that it doesn't know? Use some model more or less similar. It is cosmetics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[EDIT] Direct UEFI boot for Windows and Linux, as expected, even from Clover direct UEFI boot works without issues... [EDIT] Problem solved (Thanks dmazar!) Clover could not see the OS X because he believed that OS X was on a disk with MBR partition scheme ...
