David7586 Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 I'm having a problem with my dvd burner. Intermittently it will lose its connection with OSX. Toast, finder, parallels, etc will not be able to find it. I currently have a SATA dvd drive (pioneer). Is it related to my IDE sata kexts? Any help would be great its annoying that I need to restart my computer to burn a dvd sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRKRONNIN Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 Hey Guys, I had a quick question has anyone bought one of these "Open Box" from Newegg? If so did it come with all of the necessary cables? There $129 Open Box which sound like a steal but it would be pretty worthless to have if it just came with the mobo no cables, router nothing lol. Thanks in advanced for your help :-) BTW Heres the Link: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...82E16813131025R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thefinalprophecy Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 I bought two of them open box, separate orders, several months in between, and both of them appeared to be new/sealed. All the components were included and the boards worked fine. This is just my experience, but I did take the New Egg Open Box gamble and wound up fine.

nicko_029 Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 Hi, I'm having trouble updating Leopard from 10.5.1 to 10.5.2. I'm using THIS guide. During the install I got kernel panic... I'm using vanilla kernel and pc_efi_v80 (MBR partition scheme), so what I'm doing wrong? I'd appreciate if someone could help me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRKRONNIN Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 Hey Guys I placed my order (Waiting for it to arrive, fingers Still Crossed)... I was wondering has anyone installed OSx86 or XP/Vista on Raid 0 Array? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pioneer1976 Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 I just ordered the open box one last week and all i got was the motherboard, no back cover for the mobo, no cables , no manual and so on, just the mobo........ So let me know what you get, because if you get more than me im going to talk to newegg and see what the hell is going on.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well guess Ill have to wait and see what I get. If it doesnt come with anything Ill just send it back with the GPU I ordered (Geforce 9600GT) and buy one new... I guess its luck of the draw (Im not sure if I'm feeling that lucky ) ~Fingers still crossed lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thefinalprophecy Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 Yeah I guess I just got lucky. But NewEgg has great reputation and I've been using them since about 2001. You might be able to snag an I/O panel on eBay for cheap, but the rest of the stuff probably isn't even necessary. In fact if you need, I have extra accessories from a P5W DH Deluxe (I ended up RMA'ing one, and all they wanted back was the main board, not the accessories) so let me know and we can maybe set up a deal.

Erño Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 What distro are you using? Kalyway, patched retail image or what? Kalyway is pretty easy to update with the instructions from netkas forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicko_029 Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 I'm using retail DVD with BrazilMac patch...so, if it's possible to maintain that way, it'd be the best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astondb5 Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 Just wanted to thank everyone for this thread you helped me get my machine up and running without any real problems Running 10.5.2 Vanilla Kernel and Vista in Parallels 3.0 Desktop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thefinalprophecy Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 I never got a reply back from you via PM just so you know. I have the accessories standing by whenever you decide you want them. Again, you can have the entire retail package minus the motherboard cuz I already have a "spare" set of p5w accessories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

O and A Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 Not sure if this is where to post since i'm new here. I can't get the Firewire ports to function I have IEEE1394 enabled in Bios. Also system profiler sees whatever i plug in however nothing mounts. Disk Utility does not see any drives that aren't mounted either. Is there something else in bios i have to change? I used Kalway 10.5.2 disc to install leopard. Also can't get LAN to work but i'm more concerned about firewire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigpoppa206 Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Anybody?? Are you starting off with 10.5 and going to 10.5.1 and then 10.5.2? I used (a disk image of) the regular retail dvd for Leopard 10.5 and went straight to 10.5.2 (using the Combo-updater) with this guide as my roadmap. Works great! On my Asus P5W, it is running perfectly AND with full graphics, sound and networking, although you may need to search other threads for the right kexts for those 3 items. Good luck! PS: I used Kalyway, Leo4All and iATKOS and this vanilla install is by far the best...and fastest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When this didn't work, I tried 10.5 -> 10.5.1 -> 10.5.2, but that didn't work either. I used retail patched dvd of Leopard 10.5. The link 'this guide' is broken. Did you use this: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?sho...l=10.5.2+update ? I have all the kexts, so there's no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
