avinash_4_ever Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 which version of osx r u using modified or retail install , in any case u have to update your os x to the latest version, you can do this by downloading from the apple's website using windows or utorrent and then apply the patch to the os x , this problem is usually in 10.5.x systems not in SL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
