[Solved]

W00T! Got QE/CI working, monitor to shut off via hotcorners, and the screen saver to quit crashing the system! It even detected my monitor type (Kristel 19)! All I needed was to get my card stats from EFI studio and post into smbios plist. I thought I had done this already but I reinstalled probably 6 or more times yesterday.

So; for anyone who has my system specs and is trying to install SL, heres your fixes:

Follow SaCleoCheaters Guide
http://www.infinitemac.com/f57/how-t...on-a-pc-t3137/

Before you reboot for the first time, while still in Leo; some additionals:
Make sure you insert the hex value for your video card into the com.apple.boot.plist

Delete /System/Library/Extensions/AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext
(You should have already copied NullCPUPowerManagement.kext in there)

Copy the AppleNForceAta.kext from the attachment to your extensions (Snow Drive), if you need Sata support.
*I do not recommend using the SuperAppleNForceAta floating around- it didnt work for me, and others.

If you have the same MB as me, then you will need to copy nForceLan2.kext from the attachment to your extensions- this allows the onboard Lan to work.

Now that all that's done, type the following into terminal- *Change /Snow/ to be whatever you named your snow leopard drive*:
sudo -s
(enter your password)
chown -R root:wheel /Volumes/Snow/System/Library/Extensions
chmod -R 755 /Volumes/Snow/System/Library/Extensions
Reboot

Guess what? You should now have a working SL!! Sweet!

My only remaining issue is that Snow isnt listed under Chameleon Rc3, I have to select it. Only my iHack drive shows up until I press -> key.

I honestly couldnt have done it without the following people:
