Pupilliam Posted November 26, 2013 Author Share Posted November 26, 2013 I did use the MBR patch due to the fact that I want Windows. Have any tips for use with another distro? Just like kexts and settings I might use if I used a different distro? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Bronxteck Posted November 27, 2013 Administrators Share Posted November 27, 2013 you don't have to use a distro just google for a perl maverick mbr script and apply it to the installer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Hervé Posted November 27, 2013 Administrators Share Posted November 27, 2013 You can install Windows on GUID partitions, so no need for the MBR patch... It's a simple matter of formatting the Win partition as FAT in Mac OS Disk Utility before you proceed with Windows installation and reformatting NTFS.

Pupilliam Posted November 29, 2013 Author Share Posted November 29, 2013 I can't find any MBR scripts for Mavericks. Herve, when I attempt Windows install with GUID, the installer won't let me... UEFI BIOS is required to install Windows on GUID. Any tips? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Hervé Posted November 29, 2013 Administrators Share Posted November 29, 2013 I guess that'll be Win8 then, it's Ok with Win7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pupilliam Posted November 30, 2013 Author Share Posted November 30, 2013 Never Windows 8. 7 also gave me the same message. I'm installing XP x64 anyways... So, do you have any way for me to fix this problem? Thanks for all of the help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like you have IDA enabled when your D830 is fitted with a Merom CPU. Sorry for perhaps looking ignorant, but where can I find the recommended settings for the d830?
