Ah, just the speed is off. Things seem to be running great now, better than ever, thanks so much for the guide!

How were you able to get your audio up and running?

I am using the XMOD external USB sound.

Does Sleep work on your board?

Everything else that I have tested works so far except sleep and mic/line in on sound (using voodooHDA.kext). I used a different install method using a retail install and Digital Dreamer's guide for Gigabyte:

Thanks!

Sleep shuts down my computer, do you have shutdown working though? Mine just reboots. Can you please send me your VoodooHDA and whatever you used to get integrated sound working?

Shutdown works fine on my board. If your board is rebooting after shutdown then you need to change your "wake up events by" power settings in your bios from "Bios" to "OS" or fix the bios wake up event that is causing it to wake up on its own.

My sleep powers down USB and drives but does nothing else. Might be my video card or DSDT.

Attached is the voodoohda kext. Seems that 5.1 is not working nor is mic/line in on my board. Audio is broadcast the same on all channels rather than in surround mode after testing a movie trailer I have in surround. DSDT mods might be necessary to get this working past stereo.

Report back if you make any progress.

Does Mic or Line in work? How about 5.1 and 7.1 channels? Let me know if it is different for you since I only get 2 channels..

Thanks.

x986123, how did you make SL recogniz your Corei7? I successfully installed 10.6.1 on MSI X58, everything is fine, except my CPU is recognized as an unknown 4-core cpu...
Thanks,

It is recognizing your CPU, you just need to mod one file...

Thanks for the lightspeed hint, dude. I'm still trying to improve audio and then we can consider it done. It's a long learning process. One step at a time
