Have you installed PciRoot Fix with Multibeast? If not, reboot and on the chameleon/chimera bootscreen type PciRootUID=1 and see what happens. If it works run Multibeast and install it or edit your boot.plist under /Extra and add the string by hand like this

• <key>PCIRootUID</key>
  <string>1</string>

No result with clean install... maybe somehow to reflash card device id from 1245 to any other used by gts450?

or maybe use UseNvidiaROM=Yes with custom rom from other GTS450?

My rom from this card is below. If someone can change device id of card to 0DC4 ?

10de_1245.rom.zip

With edit of /System/Library/Extensions/NVDAGF100Hal.kext/Contents/Info.plist: add the next string "0x124510de&amp;0xffc0ffff" without quotes in the specific part.

I get NVDAGF100Hal.kext rdiver loaded but it instalntly get KP in all variants...

I think this card is really suck... and need to get 1Gb ddr5 version
