Dell Vostro 1520 Vanilla - Issues AFTER install

Hi guys, I've recently followed this guide HERE on the site to get Snow Leopard installed on my Vostro 1520.

 

I've followed the guide to the letter but cannot get my wireless card to register its existence no matter how many times I've ran the broadcom enabler script, all I can see in network is a firewire connection.

 

System profiler doesn't show the wireless card as existing either (it was there in Win 7 - honest!)

 

My laptop has the dell mini 1397 wireless card, so I know that is compatible with the broadcom enabler script.

 

I also have a problem with the QE/CI and resolution with my graphics card, according to the guide the intel (which I have in my machine) should run fresh out of the install but the DVD player option is missing on my install and system profiler has no mention of QE/CI whatsoever and my max available resolution is 1024x768

 

My Vostro has the Intel Chipset, with Core 2 Duo processor, Dell Wireless Card, Realtek Ethernet Card and Intel graphics card (4 series i think?).

 

I'm a relative newb to hackintoshing, although did successfully manage to get Leopard running on my mini 9 and have limited Mac experience, I'm eager to learn though so if anybody could point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated.

 

Thanks
