As the topic says, please, those who have an nVidia 7600GS card, let me know if you've managed to get qe/ci working with it, and what it takes to get it working. Thank you.

Has anybody tried this? I only updated my system to 10.5.3 this week, but it appears an update is already available: Mac OS X 10.5.4 Delta Update - 4 June 2008. I think it's a pre-release build, so I won't jump on it yet, all the more so…

Hi. If anyone managed to get the ASUS A8NSLI SE ALC850 chipset working and producing sound, please share the proper AppleAC97Audio.kext or the knowledge of how to do so. I tried all the AC97 kexts I could get my hands on, inserted my…

Ok, I'm asking this because it seems to be the issue of the moment, since I believe nobody has found a way to properly determine the NVCAP value inside NVInject which enables TV-out or various dual display configurations. I want to hear…

Hi. I downloaded the iso, burned and installed. Results: Installation froze during last minute of install (tried twice, same behaviour). Then tried to boot anyway. Kernel panic called by AppleIntelPowerManagement.kext. Deleted it and…

I too am among those who experience the "1-minute-left" freeze during installation. Tried all solutions suggested here but still no positive result. I believe until someone finds a fix for this, the 10.5.2 Rev.1 is essentially flawed...…

“[cite] freshcuts:I see.On MSI alc850 works. On my asus no... No alc850 sound on my ASUS A8NSLI SE either, I could never get it to work. Not in Tiger, not in Leopard, no matter which AC97 kext I've tried. It appears in the preferences pane b…”

“Darn it... I feel as if 'm missing the party... Can someone confirm getting QE/CI working for nVidia 7600GS on an nForce4 platform? I have an ASUS7600GS (256MB) on an A8NSLI SE mobo, and I'm stuck on a light blue screen after install (nVidi…”

“Actually, I believe there are 3 incomplete files in that upload: 28, 29, and 62.”

“Yes, but what's the deal with files 28 and 29? Also, 62 appears to have stopped at 46,68 MB...”

“What do you mean? With strings, you get the same behaviour as with any injector, at least that's how it works for me, I can change resolutions.”

“I can confirm that i works on 7600 GS as well. However, no TV-OUT support. Any idea how it could be done?”

“I'm not so sure he's here... Or, if he is, he's awfully quiet, not really his style, judging by the past few days...”

“[cite] zephyroth::-) Hello, zephyroth. Good smile or bad smile?”

“I believe it's simply a matter of downloading/installing them. That's why I vote for leaving the installation image as light as possible. But that's just me. P.S.: If I'm wrong, then better include it, it will surely make some people happy.”

“I vote to leave them out and let people decide if they want them later on.”

“Ok, problem solved, at least for me, but I believe it will be for anyone who had this problem. It appears that Leopard, unlike Tiger, is quite sensitive with where the output from the graphics card is sent. There are two solutions for solvi…”

“One day later, nothing that I tried worked... Could any PCI-E 7600GS(256MB) user upload or provide a link for a tested and working version of nVidia kexts? Or for the 9.1 dsmos.kext to try the method rumar4u suggested?”

“@rumar4u: Ok, I messed aroung using your instructions to the letter and I came up with the same result: with nvinject-256 kext installed, system reboots and sits on a blue screen with cursor. It tries to switch to the desktop and for like a…”

“So, to sum up, I can boot into Leopard only in framebuffer mode and ONLY if I leave the Geforce/nvidia related kexts alone. If I insert only my dev id, the system won't boot at all anymore, although it should... Needless to say, the specifi…”

“[cite] WinLinMac01:Results, I installed the update without EFI, and it still works, however, I would have to wait for 2 minutes or so for a display to show up. Anyway to fix this? Also, is there anyway to install kernal 9.2.0 separately and…”

“Ok, I downloaded it and looked inside it with Pacifist. It appears to be a genuine update from 10.5.3 to 10.5.4, but I believe it's still in beta stages at this point, I'd try it if I had a spare Leopard installation, but I don't, so I'll l…”

“I'm not sure if this is correct, but I assume you are referring to the Midi Port Address. It has two values: 300 and 330. Tried both with same result: no audio output. On a sidenote, could it be we are using different BIOS versions? I'm usi…”

“I checked everything you suggested except the BIOS changing of the port. It's set to default settings so I thought it couldn't be the problem. Since you can get sound out of your board, what port are you using for it? Thanks for the BIOS su…”

“Would it be possible to make it work with Azalia, or is this chipset not supported by it? Would it be possible to create a string, just as for graphics cards (I believe Azalia is needed for that as well...)?”

“Yes: [cite] HCE:Hi. I managed to patch the iso using PPF-O-Matic 3.0 under Tiger 10.4.10. It was quite tricky because the program would quit every time I tried to browse for the .ppf file. The solution was to right click the .ppf file --> o…”

“I know, I googled it, the problem is I have to reinstall windows, it's not working at the moment. Thanks, anyway.”

“That's exactly the one I have, to the last byte. My question is, what OS were you using when you patched the iso? If Linux, it might be that the PPFMaster is to blame here...”

“Then there must be something more to it... Maybe he tried to do this on a different platform, I believe he mentioned he was using Linux in his guide... Could that be it?”

“Hi, LohnenNicht, I followed your guide, but whenever I try to use PPFMaster and try to patch the iATKOS_v1.0i.iso with iATKOS_v1.0i_AMD_Test.ppf, I get an error some 10 seconds after hitting the "Apply" button: "Apple Script Error: Out of m…”

“Thank you so very much. Fixed, indeed. P.S.: Someone could sticky this solution, I guess there are others stuck with this issue.”

“Same problem here, ASUS A8NSLI SE nforce4, AMD 64 3500+, nVidia 7600GS, 2xSATA disks. Mail doesn't remember passwords, no idea how to fix this...”

“Thanks for the suggestion. I will try it now and will post back.”

“Thanks, I'll start messing around then. And I'll kill myself if it don't (sic!) work.”

“No, not in ADC, it can be found in the bay.”
