Solved all my problems...

Audio
I am using an Audigy 2 card, because the onboard sound has poor quality and by doing so i gained a FireWire port that the motherboard lacks - only 32bit mode for now

+ Sleep
Works, needs more testing...

good to know that someone with the MSI p43 neo got things going.
I however have no luck.
i'm able to get a full running 10.6.1 retail install to my GA ep45-ds3r.
and an Abit p35-Pro.
both of which using Chameleon 2 + EFI 10.3.

but my other system with the MSI P43 neo3-f cannot get past the Kernel Panic!
I'm getting error trying build a DSDT.aml using Patcher02Beta5 and the latest bios from MSI.
i've tried to follow many guides, but non of which to do with this particular Motherboard and Snow Leopard.

if you could, please share your successful DSDT.AML and "Extra" package for me to test out.

here's my non working spec:

MSI p43 neo3-f
intel e7200 2.53ghz
ati 4850 512mb
onboard sound
2GB DDR2 crucial ballistix

Don't try to patch the bios file, extract dsdt.dsl from running system and patch that using Patcher02Beta5. If You have Windows on computer use Lavalys Everest for extraction or use Ubuntu live cd and run cat /proc/acpi/dsdt > dsdt.dat. Then run iasl -d dsdt.dat and You have your dsdt.dsl ready for patching.

Yes, same here. My P43-Neo also works great except after sleep shutdown and restart no longer work. Mine wakes up nicely using usb keyboard, mouse or Apple remote.

I'm using version 1.9 but I don't have that machine at hand now. My sister's husband also wanted to test a Hackintosh. Now after two weeks of testing he is already planning to buy a real Mac or build his own :)
