I have a 8600gt in my system and after a much needed tax return, I really want to upgrade my video card to a newer Nvidia (due to ease with Mac compatibility). I have not looked into cards since the 8800 series (truly sad I admit), and I…

I tried to install final cut pro today on a dell inspiron 1525 (duo core, 2gb ram, 8400m gs) and a intel quad core (8gb ram, gtx260) and the installer is telling me that the my hardware doesn't meet the specifications. Both easily meet…

I had 10.6.3 working on my laptop with DSDT and loved it. (compiled my dsdt with dsdtSE through 10.5.8) I cleaned up the DSDT myself and had no problems with my machine (honest truth!). I recently put new Ram in my machine and this is when…

I have a vanilla 10.6.4 rig that I currently have an 8600gt. I wanted to upgrade and picked up a 9800gt 1gb EVGA card and even though every wiki said it worked perfect OOB... trouble ensued. (Card has 1dvi, 1vga, 1hdmi) I tried graphics…

just a simple question.. vanilla kernel KP's in 64bit on 10.6... was wondering if there is an alternative kernel for 64bit with this processor. Shows 1.47ghz Duo Core on system and confirmed duo core 64bit on Dell spec sheet.

I have a p-171fx gateway laptop that is running 10.6.3 Vanilla, everything is 100% working. The problem is that I had 1.5gb of stock ram (yea lol seriously). Inside I had a 512 and 1gb of samsung 5300 667mhz and I upgraded to 2x2gb crucial…

I have a very rare sigmatel audio chipset that someone on these forums made me a custom applehda.kext. I had to reinstall my OS from scratch and used a new dsdt and now for some reason the same HDA doesn't load. I was wondering if it's…

I hope someone out there can help me... I'm pretty much broken from this problem. I have an m11x running 10.6.6 with Intel Catinga GS45 ich9m chipset. Everything else on this system is running 100% with the exception of USB. I have tried…

“Sorry for bringing up an old thread, but this seems like the best place to ask... I have a working applehda and want to convert it to 10.6.5 applehda. I found that in 10.6.5 I do not have a MacOS folder and no actual AppleHDA inside. I was …”

“Chad, Thank you once again (truly). I have attached my dsdt for 10.6 (which only gave me 1 warning about a zero value), the original Enabler and AppleHDA from taruga (10.5.x) and i pulled a copy from the 10.5.x drive of applehda JIC rapid s…”

“Thank you so much ... I booted up in Fedora 10 (12 had bad check sum) and run codec0 and 1. 0 as you can see didn't come up but 1 did. I also have my 10.5 apple hda working and my dsdt if you need it. Couple things I noticed... volume butto…”

“Thank you so much for your help. I tried VoodooHDA but like I said the audio set was a chipset that no one used except gateway and they upgraded after 2 months of factory Specifications Audio: SigmaTel 92HD71B Dual SPDF KBC: Winbond 8763 HD…”

“I use to be a avid helper / poster over at Insanelymac, but the scene over there has slowed down to a screeching halt. First let me say thank you so much for this thread. I had one of the launch Gateway 6xxx line (when they were p-171fx) an…”

“I ended up finding out that an older version of Final was the issue. I ended up finding that the new version of 7 would accept the card (8400) but the version I tried with 4.5 was looking for AGP graphics card after I got it to install usin…”

“QE/CI enabled on both. I have been digging all day and the only thing I read that people had an issue with was VRAM. Appearently 128 is needed and my 8400gs has that and my 250gtx has plenty. It doesn't tell you what hardware is insufficien…”

“Have you tried GraphicsEnabler yet? I had the same problem with my 8800M 512mb. Nothing would work (natit, NV, EFI). I actually had to use graphics enabler. in my apple bootlist i used graphicsenabler y However... it didnt' work for me unti…”

“That's exactly what happened. The DSDT had memory locked at 1gb limit due to the original ram in my laptop and it caused havoc like you wouldn't believe. Most people could just change your dsdt memory section but I was too late and ended up…”

“Corex2, I apologize if this information is out of date but seeing no one has replied yet I thought I would at least try to help. The problem with using other GFX strings is that you might have one that actually isn't your card due to someon…”

“Cookie I've never seen anything like it. I couldn't believe it myself but it thrashed my entire system (thanks to 1gb memory limit in my dsdt). Even after removing the dsdt I started getting issues all around and I figured a wipe would be b…”

“I ended up building a new DSDT and having to reinstall. It was an uphill battle with my horrible keyboard and mouse but everything is up and running except sound which needs a custom hda. Thank you so much for your posts!”

“I give up. The only thing I can think of doing a fresh install with the ram in and hoping it works from there.”

“I've now found that my osx 10.5.8 drive i had lying around for this laptop and my vista drive both accept the new ram with no issues. Therefore what is it about 10.6.x (3) could be causing the ram issue? DSDT? 64bit vs 32bit?”

“I purchased another set of ram (different brand and chipset and same results). I know it's mac having the problem... I'll try removing my DSDT and go from there. Thank you so much for replying ! I went ahead and removed the DSDT and now the…”

“42 views and still no suggestions? Could it be brand of RAM? Do I need to Set MaxRam on Chameleon to 4096?”

“Alright... I found that the DSDT's are completely different in coding which is why the applehda doesn't work. WORKING DSDT Device (HDEF) { Name (_ADR, 0x001B0000) Method (_DSM, 4, NotSerialized) { Store (Package (0x06) { "codec-id", Buffer …”

“I have posted my Linux Dumps where codec#1 as you will see doesn't lead to much but Codec#2 gives the proper readout. I can also post my DSDT and original working applehda if needed.”
