    I was trying to insall a Yosemite on my TX300LA (using hackintosh.zone) and installation went OK.
    But I was unable to get proper video display on HD4000, so I had to use -x (something like safe mode)
    I was unable to get a WiFi network card working using multiBeast
    and finnaly i was unable to get a sound card to work using multiBeast

    If there is any other way to get these things work, I could give them a try, but as for me it's not usable.

    One good thing. Dualboot has been working well with OS X

    If anyone is still reading this forum, please help


    I recently have to use a recovery partition, becouse of windows black screen issue (while this, notebook has been force-turned off several times while going into sleep mode which I realized after a repairing a windows). After my "repair" Windows OS came back to its old life, but BIOS started to freak out.
    1. When OS (Windows or Ubuntu, doesn't matter) request a sleep mode from bios, it blanks out the screen and that's it. I can hear a fan running, and see indicators flashin.
    2. When OS request a restart from bios, it hangs on, turning off a whole notebook, and from time to time turning it on after a second or two. Before that issue, notebook was restarting flawlessly without a complete shutdown
    3. When OS request a shutdown from bios, it hangs on, on black screen.
    4. When OS finishes a hibernation, and requesting a hiber-shutdown, same happens. Hibernation files are complete, and after force-shutdown via button press, I am able to wake up from hibernation.
    Also after changing any bios settings selecting "save and exit" screen becomes black longer than usual with additional " _ " solid sign (just like a cmd blinking dash, but solid here) in left upper corner which was never happening before. BIOS remembers new settings after all.
    I have tried to reset bios settings, but problem remains.

    I have removed a case, and was looking for a CMOS battery, but it seems that when main battery is not removable, there won't be any CMOS battery. Batt connector is hard to unplug, or it uses some lock mechanism, so I don't want to break it.

    Any ideas? secret bios mode, etc?
    Bios ver is 208, but newest avaible to download ver is 207, so I can't even reprogram it.

    I would like to use a 128GB micro SD in my TX300CA Transformer Book, ASUS however only suggests to use up to 64GB micro SD cards. Does anyone see a problem using higher than 64GB capacities on this notebook? Thanks for your advice.

    It should not be a problem because if it can handle 64GB then it should handle 128GB just fine.

    I got exactly the same problem with the video outputs. Just by chance, were you able to find a solution?

    I have the opposite problem; the mini displayport has never worked since day one, but the hdmi-port works just fine (I'm running windows 10).
    That is the only port that's working actually, no ports on the dock works, and the disk inside is broken. The hinge is wobbly and has been since after something like the first month or two. I guess I should've handed it in under warranty, but it's so much work..
