Did you use one of the new 10.5.3 Combo Updates to update your Hackintosh to the latest version? If your machine uses one of the 7×00 or 8×00 series NVidia Graphic Cards you might have noticed a loss of Quartz Extreme and Core Image. Thanks to DiaboliK’s latest marihuana flavored NVidia Installer you might be able to fix the problems.
Note
If your graphic card uses more than 256 MB RAM, try to create a customized plist file using DiaboliK’s Plist Generator.
Download
NVkush can be downloaded at DiaboliK’s Helpful Files.
Manual Fix
If NVkush didn’t work you can try to use an EFI string for your card. If that doesn’t work either you could try Krazubu’s method instead. He claims that the process is very simple and the problem is caused by a little detail in the plist. However, the guide assumes that the card was working before the update, which means you were using the right kexts with the correct IDs and the injecter correctly set.
1. Open the Info.plist of your injecter
2. Find this line
<integer>XXXX</integer>
3. Replace XXXX with 0
4. Save the new file to the desktop, move the file back and overwrite the original one. You will need to authenticate.
5. Fire up the terminal and type the following 3 lines to repair the permissions
sudo chmod -R 755 /system/library/extensions
sudo rm /system/library/extensions.mkext
6. Exit and Reboot, QE/CI should be back.
