Of course, card dont show bootscreen, but in Mac overview show as a Ati Radeon HD 5000 Series 1024MB - its becouse card aint flashed?

And secind question. I find topic here:

Are you talking about building a hackintosh?

If he were, he should DROP the thought of needing to flash it - most HD5xxx cards work out of the box - all the way back to Mountain Lion, if not earlier.

Yeah, more than likely he'd need to use the inject the correct framebuffer via the bootloader (use Clover) if he were using a Hackintosh.

Which Clover will handle itself for the most part.

 

Clover has become my default bootloader since it now handles GPU swaps far better than Chameleon (while my GTX550Ti has better performance, my HD5450 has full-size HDMI, and therefore better audio support).
