Cmos reset on Intel 965/X3100

[robi39]

Anybody knows alternate method of getting rid of Cmos reset on SL on intel 965/X3100 laptop?

Here is what I tried so far:

 

- DSDT.aml Cmos reset ficx in Device (RTC) length change to 2, although i read in Netkas site that 8 length is also should work which was the original number there

- Remove AppleEfiruntime.kext

- Use modified AppleRTC.kext

 

It's a Toshiba U305-S7467 laptop.

Any help would be appreciated.

Snow leopard is very stable and everything else is working great. It's a retail vanilla install.

FakeSMC & AppleRTC didn't works for me. I fix the reset problem by generating my own DSDT.aml

Get the GUI version IF you not prefer working with terminal & select Force Compile with error to generate your own DSDT

Place the DSDT on the / of your SL installation

 

Good luck!

As I described it above i did that.

 

Any other ideas?

Try re-compile/ generate your own DSDT like the pic below

Tick all the 3 DSDT Patcher option & select your SL partition from drop down menu

 

 

PS: Verify wheter there is DSDT.aml inside your SL partition

I did that still get Cmos reset.

Here is my DSDT.aml file

see if any expert can take a look and see what's going on

I've owned may Toshiba laptops in the past and always found the Bios a bit strange.

 

Here's my CMOS rest fix, it's a different board so don't paste it wholesale, but maybe the values will help

                Device (RTC)
               {
                   Name (_HID, EisaId ("PNP0B00"))
                   Name (ATT0, ResourceTemplate ()
                   {
                       IO (Decode16,
                           0x0070,             // Range Minimum
                           0x0070,             // Range Maximum
                           0x00,               // Alignment
                           0x02,               // Length
                           )
                   })
                   Name (ATT1, ResourceTemplate ()
                   {
                       IO (Decode16,
                           0x0070,             // Range Minimum
                           0x0070,             // Range Maximum
                           0x00,               // Alignment
                           0x04,               // Length
                           )
                   })

 

I only edited the first length value. The second wasn't necessary.

Hi.

I have the same problem, with my hackbook.

I have Acer Extensa 5220.

 

DSDT.AML

ICH8-M

And X3100

 

My restart and Shutdown works only in 64bits. But in 64 bits I have cmos reset if I restarrt. IN 64bits I don't have QE/CI enabled.

 

In 32bit, I have QE/CI , but Shutdown and Restart don't go. I should press POWER button for some second and Shutdown, every time. At restart I have cmos reset.

 

If you make progress reply me.

 

Sorry for my bad English.

 

bye bye and thank you very very much.

Hi. I tried.

 

I use DSDT patcher gui for make DSDT.AML in /root

I copy this file to desktop.

I drag and drop DSDT.AML in IASLME1.2

I have DSDT.DSL

After with text edit I edit my DSDT.DSL and insert 02 at lenght.

Save and quit Textedit

After I drag and drop DSDT.DSL to IASLME1.2

but I recive some errors, and I haven't in Session directory the new DSDT.AML

Why ?

 

thank you for your reply.

yes I did that

btw what was your original length value there, mine was 8 which I heard should prevent CMOS reset

I think the problem goes deeper,there is something wrog with the dsdt file if some expert could please take a look at it?

Anyway I haven't tried 64 bit mode yet. I will do that and report back

[frtommy]

I solved my problem.

 

I delete Extensions.mkext and the DSDT.AML

 

Repair permission with disk utility.

 

Restart.

 

Afeter I can make DSDT.AML and fix the CMOS problem. Change 08 to 02 lenght.

 

After rebuild DSDT.AML

 

And now CMOS don't reset.

 

But I still have the shutdown and Restart problem in 32bit. Screen Black and Pc and FAN still ON.

 

Can you help me?

[J Lamp]

Try this in the /E/E folder

OpenHaltRestart.kext.zip

[robi39]

Try this in the /E/E folder

 

Yes I already had that there.

Still had cmos reset.

 

DSDT gurus out there please look at my DSDT.aml see if something else wrong with it.

 

I have Chameleon RC3, somebody can tell please what i need to have in my com.apple.boot.plist for the DSDT.aml to load properly?

thank you for your reply.

 

How did you fix errors from IASLME?

[frtommy]

How did you fix errors from IASLME?

 

 

I don't have Errors, with DSDT patcher and IASLME. Before I had this errors, But I solved with:

 

Delete all files DSDT.DSL and AML from the Hard disk.

Delete from E/E extensions.mkext

Repair permission with Disk Utility.

Restart the notebook.

After restart I make in TERMINAL, DSDT.AML with DSDT PATCHER

After I make DSDT.DSL with IASLME 1.2

After I Edit DSDT.DSL with NANO and change in RTC 08 lenght to 02.

I save and I make the new DSDT.AML with IASLME.

Without Errors.

 

 

I haven't cmos reset, but in 32bit Shutdown and Restart don't work.

 

Bye bye.
