I am trying to run the 32-bit version of Geekbench 2.13 on my hackintosh (Core 2 Duo, NVIDIA 8600GT video). I have tried booting both in 64-bit and in 32-bit kernel mode; both crash Geekbench on startup.

I have a dual-monitor setup. If I delete the EFI string in my com.apple.Boot.plist, I only get one monitor working, but Geekbench starts OK.

Everything else works fine on this machine (including Quartz Extreme). I've attached the crash log.

    Hi Ned,

    Thanks for your message. It looks like this crash is happening in the video driver. Could you start the Quartz Debug utility (it ships with the developer tools) and make sure the "Enable Quartz Debug" checkbox is NOT checked?

    Thanks,
    John
