kramer2k Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 if i'm not using OHR.kext i do have reboot but it takes about 30 seconds or even longer (after OSX disappeared), i never clocked it but it feels like ages hey all, I'm back after a short hiatus and working on my Mac Pro case...Anywho, here's an interesting tidbit I just discovered. I was having issues with shutdown / sleep with an add-on Video card (recently an 8800GT, just RMA'd for a 9800GT). Here's how I went about trying to fix it. Note that this is with EvOReboot.kext 1) 9300 disabled in the BIOS. Restart ok, shutdown fans, sleep fans 2) Re-enabling it in the bios (256MB), but leaving PCIe as Primary - Non-bootable system (hangs right before video should start). 3) Re-enable 9300 in bios (256MB), leave iGPU as primary - bootable system, both video cards seen, sleep AND shutdown work (All fans stop spinning) --But the problem with #3 is that currently I don't have access to the 9300 video ports (Mac Pro case), and thus this would result in a completely blind boot. So, my next thought would be to try and remove all the entries for the 9300 in DSDT. Has anyone else tried this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anasta Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Hi! I finally got my hackintosh to work.. osx 10.6.2, everything works except for ONE big issue: sleep works (fans off and gos back on) BUT when I restart, ONLY if I use sleep before that, the BIOS settings are totally lost, I get error, press F1, and I need to set up the bios settings again. I tried different bios firmware, but always same problem. If I don't use sleep, no problems at all, I restart and everything is fine. Any clue? One more thing, I could never use OSX DVD player to play iso images. It works with normal dvds, but if I mount a dvd image, as soon as I open it, it crashes....strange. Anyone can help?

Yeah I had that issue. It's a problem with your DSDT. If you use dgsga's modded bios and kexts and delete your DSDT you should have no problems.

your mother Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 I have a problem trying to boot snow leopard from a USB drive. I intalled it to an external usb hd via my MBP, installed chameleon 2 RC3 with the kexts however when trying to boot I get USB timeout errors and still waiting for root device. I'm using modified bios provided here, is there any way I can boot from my USB drive so I can clone it to the internal HD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm using modified bios provided here, is there any way I can boot from my USB drive so I can clone it to the internal HD? A USB-to-IDE/SATA adapter is a life saver in situations like this. I have never been able to boot from a USB device on a cold boot. My best suggestion is to take the hdd out and clone your USB drive to it using said USB adapter (you can get one for $10-15) on the MBP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eject Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 you can't boot from usb (or at all) if usb is set to legacy. it must be set to legacy off wich makes it impossible to boot from a usb device. you can set usb to full speed wich will make it possible but at the price of usb 1.0 speeds. so your options are booting from some sata device or booting with usb set to full speed. however, to get all usb to work as it should when osx is loaded usb legacy needs to be turned off in bios Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eject Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 you can install snowleo from your macbook to the external harddrive, install chameleon, put fakesmc and applelegacyhda in extra (with good permissions). then take the harddrive out of it's case and into your computer. it has to be attached as sata or it won't work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you use dgsga's modded bios and kexts and delete your DSDT you should have no problems. thanks for the answer, I actually removed DSDT and I am using dgsga's bios, but I still have the problem.

your mother Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Well I finally got SL installed, had to restore to install DVD to my HD then installed Chameleon 2 replacing the boot file with netkas 10.5 pcefi.

I have CpuInjector (I tried also without this), fakesmc, IOAHCIBlockStorageInjector, LegacyAppleHDA, OpenHaltRestart in /E/E. That's it. I am using bios v4 from Dgsga.

bobisdead Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Guys, I wanna buy an ATI HD5570 and use for windows only. If i install it on my ASUS P5N7A-VM, will it crash my system?

General_Cartman Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 All I can think of is that somehow your bootloader is still loading a DSDT patch. The Modded bios doesn't have any RTC issues unless you are using a DSDT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metzz71 Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 Could someone post the latest guide with the latest working kexts, etc? I have just a couple issues I would like to resolve. 1.

General_Cartman Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 How? I don't have any dsdt files...any idea? goto Terminal and do a ls -a in both / and /Extra. It might be hidden. Apart from that I'm out of ideas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neo42 Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 Shutdown seems to be failing for me now. Using modified bios, no DSDT, fakesmc.kext. Tried openhaltrestart and ev0reboot, neither working. Typically booting into 64bit kernel mode. Any ideas? Edit: forgot to mention, I am using a PCIe video card now, and grapicsenabler kernel flag. iGPU is disabled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treble64 Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 How? I don't have any dsdt files...any idea? anasta, I had the same problem and posted quite a while back now. I narrowed it down to EyeTV - as soon as I installed that, it broke my BIOS every time I slept. I never resolved it. Am still running 10.5.6 and just live with the problem. I'm using dgsga DSDT - haven't got around to trying the modded bios. Would love to find a solution. Do you have EyeTV installed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
