LS8 Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 I don't think the EFI string fix is only for XFX. I heard often all manufactures do is to slap on their own heatsink and branding. So the string should work for other 7600GT. What sort of issues are you having? Yes. It works with my Gainward 7600GT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farx Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Hi, All Have you read your ioreg_sp.txt (About This Mac ---> More info... ---> Software ---> Logs)? There isn’t the word “HPET” on mine. But I see the “HPET” on somebody’s. The Shutdown not normal is relevant to that, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheIntrepidSpaceboySpiff Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Slightly OT, but forgive me: @ karaakeha1 I plan to do exactly the same clocking with a Q6600 as you did (8x400). Can you please tell me which CPU cooler you are using? I hope it can be done not too loud... Thanx a lot! Also for the guide! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

verendus Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Karaakeha1, You mentioned that built-in network cannot browse network computers. Are you sure about that? I just bought Trendnet -PCTXR (same card you have) just for the fun of it (only $9 at local store) and compared it to the built-in network. There's no difference. I am able to share files with all 3 macs in the house via File Sharing. I see the computers on the 'Shared' section of the finder. I can also connect to my two network printer at home. Let me know if your networking need is different than what I have. I would like to find out. Ted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LS8 Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 Hi, I bought MacMini as second computer, so browsing local network became important for me. I installed R1000 driver v1.04 which supports network browsing on my ga-p35-ds4 h&ckint0sh, set the IP configuration statically (no DHCP) and network is still perfect after wake from sleep!!! I will try efi string for audio later this week. Does 5.1 sound and digital out work with efi string? thank you for your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verendus Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 As far as my machine goes, 5.1 does not work. I have removed ALCinject and am using gfx-stings in com.apple.Boot.plist. I haven't tried digital out yet. My front panel does not work either. I had some trouble getting my built-in Realtech network recognize Bonjour printers. So I went out and bought a trendnet ethernet adaptor for $9. I use that for Mac (see all the network devices) and use the built-in adaptor strictly for Windows on another HD. This way, I don't have to enable Lan Boot Rom in the BIOS. Let us know how your setup works out for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since I have Mac Pro Case so its Sound out only.And this is with EFI string (no ALCinject) Of-course after selecting Headphones in Sound out. see pic I am positive Built in LAN with Vanilla Drivers works BUT not perfectly (like Bonjour ,Airport Utility Problems)But If ASUS WiFi is used along with LAN then everything okay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LS8 Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 ...Built in LAN with Vanilla Drivers works BUT not perfectly (like Bonjour ,Airport Utility Problems) But If ASUS WiFi is used along with LAN then everything okay With RealtekR1000.kext LAN works perfectly (including bonjour), static IP configuration (not DHCP) is required to avoid dead LAN after wake from sleep.

That's Good , But it means with Vanilla drivers IN Built LAN , Its not perfect. On the other hand ASUS WiFi and Any RLT8169 PCI card works 100% perfect with Vanilla Drivers Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All this time, I did not know that I had to change the output source to headphone in the System Preferences. My front is working perfect now. I also fixed the About This Mac by simply editing AboutThisMac.strings in the loginwinodw.app. Somehow, AppleSMBIOS.kext does not poll the correct CPU data from my hackintosh. Thanks for all the help. Ted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

^_^ Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 Hi, I was wondering what's the difference between P35DS4 Rev 2.0, P35DS4 Rev 2.1 and EP35DS4 Rev 2.1? I have compare them from the chart online and can't see anything different except for price, energy definitioncy and number of USB ports? Can anyone point of the difference and most importantly will they probably works with leopard? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can anyone point of the difference and most importantly will they probably works with leopard? Thanks Get the Gigabyte Board. Get 4 GB RAM. It will work well with Leopard, besides problem with some glitches with the 8600 card and shutdown/restart problems, but i am shure this will be solved in the near future.
