I figure Airwalk probably deleted one of the RTC length sections since you only need one. For sound you just need the legacy kext, and then you need to either bin patch AppleHDA, or get the 10.6.2 rollback AppleHDA. If you google "perl AppleHDA ALC889" you should find the instructions to binpatch, or if you get the tonymacx86 multibeast it will have the 10.6.2 rollback in it. I got fed up with trying to make speedstep work on my SLI3, so I've now replaced it with the ASUS P6T WS Pro. I only need 3 kexts for it to be perfect.

@banini_jeque nice, 3 kexts sounds nice. what does speedstep do?

i have two hard drives - an SSD and a 1.5 TB HD with an HFS+ partition on it that I formatted in disk utility. However, after my initial installation os x isn't seeing it. Any ideas what that's all about? Is it JMicron stuff?

UPDATED to 10.6.6 safely. had some minor issues with the GTX480, but i was able to fix with the nvidia official drivers. make sure to keep your AppleHDA.kext if your going to use a combo update. i was in 10.6.5 then just did the apple software update, had no issues.

try switching the sata cables to the bottom black sata slots. im assuming that you installed OSX in the SSD. if you plugged in the 1.5TB on the top 4 sata [ red, red, black, black ] its usually involves enabling them [jmicron]

Code:

 BIOS:E758_SZ2Z
Motherboard:EVGA x58 132-BL-E758-A1
CPU:Intel Core i7 920 @ 4.0 GHz
OS:Snow Leopard 10J567:x64 Vanilla
Memory:24 GB G.skill DDR3 1333 MHz
HDD:10 x 1TB Western Digital Caviar Black
Graphics Card:EVGA Geforce GTX480 1536 mb
Monitor:Dell Ultrasharp 2408WFP Rev. A02
Audio: Onboard

@slayer great, nice to hear you got 10.6.6 running smoothly. did you try the tonymac nvidia driver update at all? i have my HDs in sata 0 and 1 - i forget what colors those are, but i think they are vertically stacked. do you know if i need any certain jmicron kexts to enable all those sata ports? i jacked my back up and i'm not looking forward to lifting my case up and changing the cables haha.

Actually got around to putting the new board in this weekend. Seems to be working fine (did a lot of testing in windows), so I started working on OS X. I basically started from scratch, a clean install. But I'm using the exact same boot setup as I was before the breakdown. Same package installer of chameleon, same boot plist and smbios, same extensions. For some reason now I'm having trouble booting, though. It's not panicing or giving me kext errors, no errors at all. Right after I choose the volume to boot, it starts loading for less than half a second and then the computer pretty much turns off. Video goes away and all the fans start running at full speed. Any ideas what could cause that? Never seen a bad kext do it.

im assuming you have a dual boot setup using chameleon. this is the reason why i chose to dual boot in a different way. i have both installations in separate HDDs. i have windows setup with IDE then Mac with AHCI. whenever i need to go to a different OS i just go to BIOS and set it up as IDE or AHCI depending on the OS.

if not, try using the kext in the first post again if you havnt yet. maybe setting up a new dsdt would help.

likewise, constantly switching that setting in bios....


On another topic here guys but has anyone been able to get netflix to work with our boards? Maybe there's a mod to the boot plist we can do?

netflix is working for me (I assume you have silverlight installed) the second part to get it to work is make sure your ethernet interface shows as "built in"
