Elarys Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 Hi I'm new to running OS X completely, I wanted to try it before I bought a mac. Hence installed it on my PC. It's installed okay, I used [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] and can boot into it okay (albeit from a CD bootloader at the moment). The only issue so far is that I can't use sound, and I'd like to see if I can get sound working. I've seen some things about DSDT's and Kext's... and I'm left thinking a bit.. "What the hell is a DSDT?" Can someone please assist me in getting sound out of my GA-P35-DS3 Rev 2.1 board? In Win7 it's reporting an AC889a codec.

FKA Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 Well have you searched the forum for ALC889a ???

Elarys Posted August 15, 2010 Author Share Posted August 15, 2010 I can see some stuff about it. But it's totalling losing me (as per my first post). Custom DSDT? What's a DSDT? I follow guides that say to install a kext, but how do you know if that's installed okay? I can't seem to find any simple new user friendly guides to explaining those things Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FKA Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 Google "GA-P35-DS3 retail install snow leopard" there are plenty of good guides out there. Ignore DSDT and try to find kext based solutions for now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
