1st. - Preparation: Saved my Kernel (Blacknight)
make a Carbon Coby Clone

2nd: - Download and install

3rd: - Reboot
Before rebooting: exchange the 10.6.3 original kernel (back to Blacknight 10.6.2)

4th: - Everything correct?
No, sound is absent - but no problem

Over all time for cloning, downloading and new installation approximately 1 hour.

Best regards.

Sure i can.

Open Marvins's AMD Utiliy, select "Create Patcher Package", press "browse and select "/System/Library" folder. It will take it's time and create "AMD.Patch.Folder/XXXX.XX.XX_at_XX:XX" folders on your Desktop. They will contain a folder named "decrypts" and text file called "cpuid" - copy cpuid to your desktop and open decrypts.
Open the cpuid file you just copied to your desktop with an text editor of your choice and remove all the lines with CPUIDs that had been found in /System/Library/Extensions for example remove:

Code:

/System/Library/Extensions/AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext/Contents/MacOS/AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement
00000000
0001070f    cpuid

Next have a look at the files placed in the folder named "decrypts" and remove them from cpuid file as well - for example SystemUIServer is in decrypts folder so you'll remove the following lines:

Code:

/System/Library/CoreServices/SystemUIServer.app/Contents/MacOS/SystemUIServer
00005780
0003471e    cpuid

After you're done save the text file and go back to Marvin's Utility: select the "Patch all cpuid's using cpuid file" option - remove the Simulation Mode - select the edited cpuid file from your Desktop and /System/Library as destination and let it do it's magic.
Atfer that iTunes, Spotlight, Photoshop & Co should be fine again.
