i tried simply everything just to get my soundcard work .. my mobo is Abit - IP35 .. its on board sound card seems to be ALC888 ( which i'm not sure anymore :s )

I used KextHelper 0.7 to install ALC888_Taruga there were errors of "no such file or directory" so i decided that this wasnt my soundcard's driver. then i tried ALC888 kexts it gave me the same no such file or Directory error. Lastly i tried AzaliaAudio kext on KextHelper 0.7 ... there wasnt any errors .. i repaired permissions and restarted ..

but no use. no sound at all again ..

also i tried ncx5_ALC888.codec.dump on AppleHDAPatcherv1.20 also tried every alc888.txts i have ever found but no-go too ..

i am about to give up now pls help - tnx in advance

The audio codec is Realtec ALC888 7.1..........have you tried http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?act...ost&id=6739

Also see http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=69471
and http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=36520

tnx for the reply mate .. i'll try this tonite .. one thing to ask tho .. after double clicking on these mpkg's it install itself automatically .. do i need to do repair permissions or anything afterwards on terminal or anything ? or this installation does all the repair permissions - deleting backup kexts etc. by itself ?

excuse me if those Qs are silly but i'm very new to hackintosh

i tried it now and its a no-go again

Am i the only one who has this stupid mobo trying to get sound from his leopard ?

I have updated the thread links.......so you should be able to read them.......

</dict>
<key>Realtek ALC880/ALC860 Codec Driver</key>

<key>IOProviderClass</key>
<string>IOHDAudioCodecDevice</string>

this is my .plist ..

everyone says that it should be like this :
find <key>IOHDAudioCodecVendorID</key>
ad <string>0x10ec0888</string>

as you can i have lots of 0x strings with meaningles "ffff"s in them ..

0x10ecffff 0x14f1ffff 0x11d4ffff 0x434dffff 0x8384ffff is the string in the Apple Azalia Audio Codec ALC880 and you are modifying this string.......

tnx for your helps Verdant .. i just tried this :

and it magically worked.

tnx again .

Glad the HDA patcher + codec dump worked for you.....

Was this the IP35, IP35 Pro, IP35-E, or IP35P?? I own the IP35P and i'm in a similar position where i can not for the life of me get audio working. What exactly did you do to get this working? I desperately want audio.
