| Retail Snow Leopard DVD install for G31M-ES2L “I have a 10.6 system following this guide. I never used sleep enabler though. Some people might be interested in the way I test updates now.

| Retail Snow Leopard DVD install for G31M-ES2L “I removed sleepenabler.kext, rebuilt the kext cache, downloaded and installed the 10.6.2, added in the new sleepenabler.kext and then rebuilt the cache.

| Retail Snow Leopard DVD install for G31M-ES2L “Hmmm I would think the issue is with the ide drive. I purposely purchased a SATA DVD drive for this build. At $20 it was cheap enough. I have 3 drives in my system; 1 for OSX, 1 for Win 7, and 1 to image the OSX drive so I can make changes …” | Snow Leopard 10.6 | 2009-11-30 1,741,402 dossier reads |
| Retail Snow Leopard DVD install for G31M-ES2L “Sorry everyone another thing just popped up. Using this guide as a finishing step the Please Sleep kext is loaded onto the system.

| Ethernet cable unplugged “Hmmm... I'm wondering if won't just be easier to get the Apple USB to ethernet adapter. Checking online on MS's site, it's compatible with Win 7 as well.
