Asus K50IN - Page 25

Thanks for the reply.

Sounds like this may be worth a go

I have an original 10.6 DVD - From what I have read, this will work with the Asus Boot CD? Or is it preferred to have the one by Hazard?

I wouldn't use VGA out - but wireless could be an issue - I have a Sonnet Aria card that I could use - might order the Dell 1490 a/b/g mentioned on page 1 - although I would like 802.11n.

Cheers

EDIT: Sorry, meant to ask - is your lappy the Intel GM45 Express Chipset?

Could you please indicate how to get QE/CI?
Kext used? Particular procedures? Adding devID in some plist...
I'm now using NVenabler64.kext...

I'm dual booting, good chameleon, some sleep issues but the worst is no QE/CI so I would like to solve that first.

Thank you!

Ah ha -

This may be better - Will have to check out the spec in more details....

ASUS N50VC FP008C - Core 2 Duo 2.4 GHz - 15.4 " - 4 GB Ram - 320 GB HDD

Anyone got any ideas?

Intel Core 2 Duo P8600 / 2.4 GHz
Mobile Intel PM45 Express
NVIDIA GeForce 9300M G

Also has:
Bluetooth 2.1 EDR
IEEE 1394
And a few other things which the SV025C did not.

Anyone got this machine? Works? It's only £40 more. Seems worth the investment!!

EDIT: Found out that the CPU is the same as Macbook 13" - but not sure about the GPU & Chipset.

ellnic.

Hi guys,
everything ok except for QE/CI using flip360 EXTRA.

Is there any particuar procedure? Now i'm using NVnject and NVenabler64, buto still no luck... Do I have to remove GraphicsEnabler from boot.plist? Or something else?

It seem that everyone is getting it working with NVEnabler64... i feel myself stupid!!

How can I create a Dual Boot install?!
When I try to install SL on the same disk as Windows 7 i am always getting an error that says i have to install on an guid partition table (But I don't want to reformat the Drive), first i've created a Mac OS Extended (Journaled) Partition and marked as active.

So what to do now?!

You can look here.
And I can say that I have installed 10.6, after that I installed Windows to the second partition. All was fine. After that I booted from boot CD into the OSX. But when I have installed Chameleon v2 onto the EFI partition it broke windows os...

UPDATE: New ASUS-K50IN-BootCD version 2 is available with new features and no bugs!

ChangeLog of version 2:
1) A touchpad is working during the installation and when the system starts with bootCD (ApplePS2Controller.kext compiled special for Elan Ps/2 Port Smart-Pad by Rus).
2) Corrected info.plist in HPETDevice.kext for better compatibility
3) Included a folder of Tools (Kext Utillity, Show-Hide Files tool, Chameleonv2RC4.pkg by Dr.Hurt).
4) Included a folder of Kexts - all the necessary drivers

What's up flip360. Could you share your Extra folder with us? I never got sleep to properly work ...

I tried once, and it seemed to work, but the PS/2, the Trackpad and the USB (including the mouse that I clicked to wake it) is no longer working. Resulting in a non-responsive system.

I could press the power button, and got the choice to shutdown, restart ... but since there is no keyboard working, I couldn't validate anything. So, had to reset the computer.
