GeForce 560Ti 1gb on MacPro 1.1 OS 10.9.3

[CheroSB]

Hi guys, Im new on forums but long read your posts.
I hawe problem and can’t find solution…

My question is how run Zotac GeForce 560Ti 1gb on MacPro 1.1 (not firmware yet on 2.1) and OS 10.9.3 (with Tiamo) ??

Last sunday Im trying all day to do but nothing, Im puting some kext find on net (for Lion) only kernel panics after 15 sec. start loading boot screen with apple logo.
With Pacifist Im install latest Nvidia drivers an Im success load Mavericks but not recognize 560ti (in slot 1 was old 7300 for boot screen) After I close down and put back PC Radeon HD 6670 (work fine from 10.6.x) only black screen…Now don’t work card who works….

Yesterday i Load backup and start again. Now Im find Modded_WebDriver-334.01.01f01 and Install Ok. Now I hawe in system manager Nvidia Driver Manager Preferences. When install drivers I hope that everything with 560Ti be OK but nothing only black screen, and when put 7300 can see boot screen again kernel panics, sorry first time was freeze after 20 sec after apple logo.
I try put off 2 x 6 pin power cable and load… OK but can’t see 560Ti in slot2.

I suspicion on extra 6 pin power (6 pin cable are OK)…. or something in kext for graphic card power….

Thank you for all the help!!

Man, with all due respect, you need to have at least some clue when you're installing "some kext find on net (for Lion)" onto your Mavericks.

Usually (9/10) video drivers (kexts) from older OS versions don't work with their successors.

500 series NVIDIA cards should function with full QE/CI without messing with Kexts under Mavericks, regardless of which version of the Mac Pro you are using. It's older iterations of OS X that are restrictive. For example, Lion, the last "officially supported" OS X iteration on a 1,1, cannot use Kepler GPUs (600-700 series). Mavericks works with most modern NVIDIA cards.

Are you sure you got Mavericks up and running properly? A kernel panic wouldn't be caused by an unsupported graphics card.

My version is: MacPro 1.1 upgrade firmware yesterday on 2.1 and OS 10.9.3 (with Tiamo boot.efi)
Before 10.9.3 Im have SL 10.6.8. and after 2 month upgrade on 10.9.3.

First you need to verify whether the card is working or not. In Windows on a MP or PC.

Today I verify the card working or on in PC....

Im got this report when 560ti in slot

You have bad RAM, this is what causes KP – not the 560Ti.

 

[CheroSB]

Hmmmmm....... KP happen only I put 560Ti in slon1, when put 6670HD everything is OK Im confused.... Of corse, Im added 4x4 GB memory....

 

[NOTNlCE]

Remove the web driver you installed by doing a PRAM reset - boot while holding Command+Option+P+R.

Well, your KP log says only about uncorrected ECC errors, nothing about crashing GPU drivers. Are all KP logs that same?

This KP are laste this morning... Im today put 560ti in pc but Im burn motherboard pc on reparation and Im bring 560ti in pc service to chek...

If 560ti be OK i try load without latest web drivers...I remebered that Im morning

[CheroSB]

560ti was back from service and is OK, Im today put radeon 7850 and all is OK work like 7xxx...
