Cool glad I could help. If I were you, I would run it again whenever you install anything new.

Ah at last someone else with the same issue as me - I have scratchy alert sounds too, its been driving me nuts trying to find a solution!! I think it's also related to Quicktime quitting on me, if i disable the sound driver Quicktime runs fine.

I've got a Realtek ALC850. What sound card do you have? I'm trying to find a different driver that works. Apparently the Azalia driver from the Jas 10.4.8 dvd supports the ALC850 but i can't find it anywhere

Mac OS X 10.6.4 Retail || Intel Core2 Duo E8200 2.66GHz || Gigabyte G31M-ES2L || GeForce 6600 GT 128MB || Realtek ALC883 Audio || Realtek RTL8169 LAN || Samsung SpinPoint F1 1TB HD || Sony Dual Layer IDE DVD RW DW-D22A || Apple Aluminium Keyboard || Mighty Mouse

MacBook Pro || 2.4Ghz Core 2 Duo || 200Gb HD || 2Gb Ram || NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT

dito. ALC850.
First, when i wanted to try out the sound i recognized those scrytchy alert sounds - so i looked around and tried different kexts.
Then i found out that - even with the original kexts - sound works fine (itunes, alerts from third party apps, even from mail). Only the original alert sounds make that noisy sound - if they are played by the system.

All kexts which i tried didnt solve the problem.

You've only done half a job

copy patches folder including patcher and cpuid.txt to root of your drive
boot -s
mount -uw /
cd /patches
./patcher cpuid.txt

lanxxx, thank you for the instructions. I will try it out as soon as i have installed leopard again. For now, i switched back to tiger, because i have the feeling that some of the problems which appeared have nothing to to with installing leo on pc - i guess those safari crashes etc. are a leopard specific problem in general. i found a lot of topics in forums where people had problems with leopard (people who own a mac...).

by the way: those problems confuse me a little bit: i was thinking about getting a mac this year and now i am not more sure if osx is really that stable like i thought before... well, maybe wait for 10.5.3 and hope the best ...

To be honest there seems to be one or two bugs, as you would expect with any new operating system, but we're not talking the scale of a microsoft new update.
The only bug I can find that I can put down to Apple is that I can't turn off the screen saver. I think that's about it.
Safari doesnt crash. Firefox does but not very often. But that seems to be a well known fact.
Though I must admit I don't think leopard is yet as stable as Tiger, and yes bugs are being ironed out all the time. I'm sure the amd community and Zeph will have much improved the next DVD release even if it doesnt have new apple updates
