Hi All,

I have some success installing a fairly clean install of Snow Leopard on HP 8530W laptop but I need some extra help.

First of all, I used this post: http://www.insanelymac.com/2009/08/how-to-...-pc-hackintosh/

 

and if I followed it directly, no problems. It installed from the DVD just fine.

Then the system wouldn't boot to SL. I then used this post: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=182227

 

I tried using VoodooPS2Controller.kext, and the ApplePS2 kext's and I had keyboard, but no mouse. I moved the VoodooPS2Controller kext and now I have mouse and keyboard. I don't have sound though, and I am using the VoodooHDA driver.

 

I also had to move the IOUSBFamily.kext out of the way too so it wouldn't load otherwise the boot stops after the USB drivers are loaded.

 

I would like to find the following drivers:

 

1. IntelHDA 64-bit driver

2. VoodooPS2 driver that works

3. IOUSBFamily kext fix

4. nVidia driver (updated nvinject perhaps?)

 

If anyone has any pointers for these it'd be a huge help.

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi!

 

Ive installed SnowOsX 3.5.2 with PS2 option which works after initial setup. What I can't get to work is Graphics (Nvidia Quadro FX 770), Wireless or ethernet.

 

Any progress?

Hey there. Get the Intel82556m kext, i think you can get it from Kexts.com. Also, get NVEnabler.kext.

 

You will get OpenGL/CL working and have ethernet.

 

 

 

Do you have sound working? I still don't have sound and mouse works, but I can't modify any settings under "mouse". If you have any tips there, I'd appreciate it.
