Well I downloaded the original kext from Realtek and it did not work, so I patched the kext by changing the Device ID to the Device ID of the internal RTL8187B that I have.

You can download it here : http://www.infinitemac.com/f57/official-patched-realtek-usb-rtl8187b-wifi-kext-release-t5472/

Well you need to get a little more spec info like who makes the WiFi card and what model, and also I suggest iAtkos v7 Leopard or a retail instal of Snow Leopard using the Empire EFI CD.

I tried Empire EFI CD and the laptop reboots when it gets ready to use my SL Retail DVD. The last messages that I see are:

Code:
efi_inject_get_devprop_string NULL trying stringdata
no SMBIOS replacement found.
Patched DMI Table
No DSDT replacement found.  Leaving ACPI data as is
Starting Darwin x86_64
[laptop reboots]

No Hackintosh will be as reliable and easy to use as a true Macintosh. At best, it'll work as well as (or perhaps even better than, in some respects) a real Mac, but there will always be the potential for software upgrades to completely hose the system, and in most cases there's a steep learning curve to get it installed in the first place. You may get it 90% working without too much trouble, but then you'll have issues getting that final 10% (WiFi, optimum graphics, getting sleep working, etc.). Thus, if you've got the extra cash and want something that Just Works, buy the real Mac. If not, either abandon plans to run OS X or plan to spend many hours researching and debugging.

As to your specific system, it probably uses a recent enough Intel video chipset that you won't get optimum video performance -- it'll be missing QE/CI support, which means that some advanced games and video players won't work with it. AFAIK, this is true of the vast majority of current commodity laptops. My understanding is that Apple has switched to nVidia graphics on its recent models, so the current line of Intel graphics chipsets may never be fully supported. WiFi issues can be worked around via a USB WiFi dongle, so I wouldn't worry too much about them just yet.

If Empire EFI doesn't work, you could try a distribution, such as the iAtkos that 00010 suggests; however, iAtkos is a 10.5.x distribution. There's a 10.6.x distribution floating around under the name "Hazard," and I think there are one or two other 10.6.x distributions, but there are nowhere near the number of 10.6.x distributions that there were of 10.5.x distributions.
