Hi Vlad,

So after 26h later (512kpbs connexion, I hate you) to re-DL the ISO, the boot works correctly. My previously ISO was really corrupted.

Now it's time for me to install Leopard on my computer :)
It's an another quest !

Thanks for your support both !
I hope to help you back !

Fred

hey Fred,
when you finish thy quest, report (hopefully using osx :D) weather everything works smoothly!
them bastards didn't give my graphics card back yet... :(

Hi,

No prob, if I can help, I do it ;)
Installation process is in progress, it's long (18min to wait again, so long as a Windows installation :D)

I hope too I have selected the good options for installation. What's the prob with your 8800GTS ?

i've installed internet explorer 8 beta release candidate, wanted to see how it works (on vista64) and it messed up the grap.card on restarting.. i have no clue how that could have happened..
on starting up, it was giving me the "dumping physical memory" BSOD..
and a buzzing sound when i used programs while i was listening to music..
when i removed the driver..the problems stopped..but cant use the card without drivers.. tried all sorts of drivers..

replacing the card made the problem go away... so im waiting to get a new one..

so i suggest never to download stupid microsoft beta programs.. hope osx86 will help me on this .. :D

One rule : never, never, never try a MS beta software on your system. Since IE7 beta, i try all beta shit in a virtual machine for more security :D

Osx boot correctly on my computer. But there are already a trouble, I have changed my screen resolution (original : 1360x768) to 1440x900 and... now I have a lil' pretty blue screen, no desktop, no mouse pointer :-/ Gosh, isn't easy. I must boot with -x parameters now.

No sound too. No network too (no ethernet, no wireless with my linksys wmp54g).

This night seems veryyyy long :rolleyes:

my resolution is 1680x1050... where did you change your res?
since i have a wide screen, it didn't automaticly set the res (while installing)

did you choose ALC889A driver for audio ?
Realtek R1000 for ethernet

?

h4mzt3r 03-03-2009 09:08 PM

I change my resolution into the system preference menu, default is 1360x768 on my system and it's very ugly...

For drivers :

For audio : ALC888A driver.
For Ethernet : Realtek R1000.
For Wireless (Linksys WMP54G) : RALINK (this after 2500USB or something else)

Nothing works :-/ And I discover that FrontRow doesn't work too 'cause my graphical card doesn't support it (same for some screensavers).

Now, the good question is : how to change my drivers ? :'(

h4mzt3r 03-04-2009 12:33 AM

OSx86 install on a GA-P35-DS3R : Second round !

I maked a new fresh install 'cause I wasted a lot of time to find a solution to fix my screen resolution problem. Oh, of course, I could make that directly via the CD under OSX but at 75%, an error occured. Nice. Funny. Really. Be cool, don't be crazy. Relaaaax.

So, what's new ?

Sound drivers : alc888a or azalia, it's the same : doesn't work.

Ethernet : Realtek R1000 but I see that the connection "unplug" my HomePlug (netgear x102) of his network. I'll test without HomePlug tomorrow, with a RJ45 plugged directly from my computer to my DSL modem.

Wireless : Ralink or Broadcom. My Linksys WMP54G is a lil' piece of s..t ! Some models have a Ralink chipset, another have a Broadcom chipset... In case, she's not in the hardware panel of OSX (no PCI card connected).

Graphic card : nvinjector 256 and nvinjector, both recognize my vga card (nvidia geforce 8600gts), but some application like FrontRow, screensaver, etc... told me that my graphic card isn't supported. Strange !

Well, I definitively loose the battle this night, cafeine is perhaps my best friend but I need to sleep a lil' bit. Tomorrow is an another day ^_^

hi h4mzt3r...glad to hear you run in osx.... :)
you must have QE and CI enabled at your graphic card...try this driver....and let the montor run in it's native res.....:D

h4mzt3r 03-04-2009 07:15 AM

Hi Wayang,

I forgot to tell you, but I realised yesterday that my KVM could be a source of problem. It's the cause of my 1360x768 resolution. Now my screen is natively to 1440x900 but I'm afraid to make any change ^_^

For the QE/CI, I don't know what is it, never hear before, so thanks for the advise. Everyday come with a lot of surprise :-d
