So the answer to the AMD problem is to buy a new intel board and CPU. Joy...

I´m not saying this, I ´m very happy with my 3 amd systems, i love them, I don´t have this kind of problems with them...Did you try another install method? I always use a retail dvd from a spare partition.

I'm very happy with my AMD as well

Works flawlessly since 10.5.1 Rev.2 Beta (Out of the Box for my system), which I still use - (updated with eddie11c's updater to 10.5.2)

Me too, but i just cant seem to get leopard to stop crashing. i have sorted the mad mouse movement bug and tons of others mainly driver related problems i'd been having. but it seems me and others just cant get a stable system ie random crashing, torrents,cant leave on overnight as it crashes. the reason for my above post was, it seems looking at this thread that alot of people have just gone out and bought intel to overcome there problems. please dont feel that i am unaprecitive of all the hard work the devs have done and all the support recieved. i do enjoy the 4-5 hours i can use leopard before a crash its just a tad frustrating..

Loving those black window decorations how did you change those? i cant find any UI mods for leopard with shapeshifter not compatible.

[cite] roisoft:[/cite]E6850=3.4ghz( 24/7) +400mhz OC, 3.8 (stable), 3.95 my top score, but i don´t want to force too much and i don´t need it because the performance is awesome. All the P35-DS series are perfect for OS X, workig 100%, ethernet, 6+2 Sata2, E-sata works, Sleep/Reboot works, Shutdown 50%, 100% stable. Digital Out/In works perfect, and if you want 5.1 you need set up an agregate device in midi preferences and that´s all.

I´ve installed from retail dvd adding dsmos.kext, efi-strings for audio and Gfx, and deleting AppleIntelCpupowermanagement.kext .. that´s all you need.

I´ve enabled the QuartzGL and disable the Beamsync for do this open a terminal and type

@roisoft and puttabong:

i couldn't help but look up your signatures over at insanelymac and i happened to notice something veeerryyy interesting:

puttabong: RAM - 1 GB Kingston HyperX DDR
roisoft: RAM - 2GB Kingston HyperX PC3200

okay, it might be a little coincidence, but could it be the reason? roisoft, what are your other 2 AMDs using for RAM?

and finally the big question:

ARE YOU GUYS RUNNING TORRENTS?!??!??! (and if so, for how long?)

sorry, I'll calm down now.

bhast2 · #**240** 03-28-2008, 09:40 PM

after pulling that 1 ram stick out
i am running torrents now just download about 10GB worth of stuff and no problems what so ever
i was burning a movie and viewing the web and had photoshop open and my system didn't crash at all
no sign of crashing no lag no nothen
I HAVE NOT HAD A SYSTEM CRASH IN 36 HOURS OR ERRORS!!!!!!!! i even got ilife working great
