Hello Ryan,
first off, let me tell you this laptop is as vanilla as you can get with hackintosh after swapping the wifi out :) second, i dont think i am using any dsdt, if so i cant seem to find it on my hard disk even with show hidden files script. I updated it to the latest bios from Asus (219 i think) and it seems i dont need dsdt anymore :) Will try this kext out and report back. For installation look at my first post about the USB install method, i am gonna upload the kexts, com.apple.boot.plist and SMBIOS.plist somewhere for you to try :) Cheers |
Thanks, I'm looking forward to trying it out. I'll need to make the loader using my MSI Wind tonight. Did you include the kext's while preparing the loader, or did you do those post install?
I wasn't sure about the Realtek kext. I'd only found it while searching for other info on components in this laptop. I think this kext could have come from a different laptop/desktop using this chipset, but it's worth a shot! Cheers Ryan |
I did not include the kexts in the USB install, just copy NullCPUPowerManagement.kext into E/E afterwards, booting from the USB stick so you dont have KP. I will upload my whole Extra folder so you have fun with it and maybe upgrade something :)
cheers |
Sweet, thanks, I'm really starting to think this laptop is a great choice for OSX (And you can't beat the price either)
Can't wait to get started on this! Ryan |
Nothing to think about it, its running smoothly believe me:) Here you go my Extra folder :)

Thank you, I will keep you posted on how things go!
Cheers Ryan |
Alright man, keep me posted ;)

wow! sweet..your k50in gone too far and now running vanilla snow! :) im going to try this (again :D)..i stopped the last time i posted,,where our graphics has no luck.. |
Hello flip360,
Thanks for your info, I also got my K50IN with Vanilla. But I have one major problem: the mousepad does not work for me. I'm now going to use your Extra folder, just to see if it would behave a bit better. :D Thanks for sharing it. By the way, have you been able to solve the problem of sound? It sounds horrible. :'( |
I got the Mousepad working now. I had to use Kext Utility or move the VoodooPS2Controller to the /System/Library/Extensions
What is left, is figure out how to get a proper sound out of the speakers. |
