If anyone else needs help or has questions please post here or message me. I simply followed Squid's guide and it worked, easy as pie.

Thanks again everyone!

Cheers^^

I'm glad it worked out for you. Now, what video card do you have? and can you post that VoodooHDA?

I'm using an EVGA 8800GTS. And yes, let me upload the VoodooHDA.kext.

Remember to remove "AppleHDA.kext" before installing the VoodooHDA.kext.

If you have any questions, please ask.

Good luck!

Great, ty, I'll test it after I reinstall 10.6, I have too many errors, and would like to know how to make an EFI string for my 9800GX2

If you'd like I can also post the app I used to make the EFI string for my card. I'm not sure if the 9800GX2 is supported by that program or not, but an updated version might provide support if the version I had doesn't.

All right, let me zip the app for you and attach it here.

(Upload is limited to 1.5MiB so here's a link --> http://data.iukkoth.net/EFIStudio.zip)
