You can make a bootable usb of any osx or do it via target disc mode if you have a firewire 800 cable and another mac or use the dvd, via an internal or external dvd drive. I found supply voltage to chip was a bit low compared to the schematic I found and I fixed that by replacing the capacitor which fixed the voltage on the 9600gt supply but unfortunately the problem remained with the discrete graphics and so it probably is a problem with the 9600gt chip. Later versions of lion and any subsequent osx will boot loop if the 9600gt has failed I think because they do the auto graphics switching and they switch to the 9600gt part way through the installation. I recently got one of these 17" 2009 mbps working with an early version of lion osx, in which you can select the gpu mode, battery life or high performance, it will crash if high performance mode is selected because the 9600gt is bad. The display would turn black and the laptop would restart. PS If this helps, the HWID of the 9400m is PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0866&SUBSYS_00AF106B&REV_B1

MacOS cannot even play 480p video on youtube with the nv_disabled tag The Mac boots only with nv_disable=1 -> the 9600m GT card is dead. I have installed MacOS 10.10 via an older hdd's recovery tool. When I run CPU-z in safe mode, it's all good.When I run CPU-z, GSOD with WDF_ERROR when it loads "sensors".the 9600m GT board appears correctly installed in device manager, but with error 43 on the details - there are very good chances that the board is dead / needs reballing / need capacitors changed - problems on this model are many.

none of the 2 video cards work properly.Bootcamp drivers have been installed (for some devices the driver had to be manually selected - bluetooth, SMU).
