Wifi = Atheros AR9285 802.11b/g Wireless Network Adapter PCI
Wired=Realtek RTL8168D/8111D PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Adapter (PHY: Realtek RTL8211/8212) PCI

GPU= ATI Radeon HD 5770

Got no sound. itunes would crash, and the music appeared to be in fast forward mode when i played something.

How can i boot in 64bit mode? if possible? or is it not like windows with the 4GB ram +1GB GPU issue

Boot with arch=i386 -force64 And you'll be fine. It's not like windows with the limitations.

For wifi, 3 people here: http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/in....6.3/Portables have your card. 1 has it working. download the kext he used here: http://uploading.com/files/94fm2e33/...mily.kext.zip/

For LAN/ethernet: use RealtekR1000SL.kext and you'll be good. google if its not a regular kext.

for your gpu: here: http://netkas.org/?p=465

What else works and doesn't work? I'll be more than glad to help with anything else.

And if you don't mind my asking, what is your chipset, and what method did you use to install? (And did you add any kexts for your chipset?)

EDIT: For sounds, use voodoohda if that's not what you have. other then that I'm not super sure. I have yet to get far enough where I have to work on that. On my laptop, sound worked natively, and then I'm still trying to install on my desktop.

Of course! Let me know what you get.

Just out of curiosity, how are you installing it?

Hm. Sometime if you have that back in, can you tell me the description for ahci sata? I'm trying to figure out which to use. And do you know your chipset type?

And let me know if you need more help.

Alright thanks. And what kext do you use for the chipset? Just ahci sata? Don't you need like appleatiata.kext or something?

lol man I have no clue.

I only picked that AHCI because it looked like something i need lol

Now i wish i had gotten a Intel CPU, because all the tutorials and support threads seem to be about those.

And the guy i got iAtkos has it running on a AMD but he's terrible at support and won't go in depth with the answers...most i got was boot with arch=i386 blah blah,.

Are you able to install it, and then turn it on like regular? And you can see the desktop and everything?

I believe you do need ahci sata, btw.

What other questions do you have?
