Osx 10.5.2 not booting after bios upgrade Conroe 1333-d667

[Ubuntero1]

Hello dear friends

 

I installed mac 10.5.2 Kalyway on my conroe 1333-D667 rev 1.0 whit the moffed bios from Kabyl (P1.80) but that bios does not recognize the card and the system won't boot

 

i whent to asrock web and i found that only the bios P1.90 supports that card and i did a bios upgrade but mac won't start again

 

i think that the new bios is also incompatible whit it, but i wanted to post it here to see if anyone has managed to boot mac whit bios P1.90

 

 

Thanks

 

victor hugo.

 

if this is not on the rigth category please tell me or move it please

Hi guys

 

Sorry for I'm a little late, but may I ask you if anybody could post or upload somewhere the Asrock Conroe1333 1.80 Bios modded by Kabyl?
The osrom.net site seems to be down, and I have no way to download that pack.

Thank you very much in advance

Fabry

Try to describe in detail what problem you hope to solve by using a modified BIOS. Otherwise the following is pure guesswork:

 

...

 

Back in the day BIOS modding for OS X usually meant removing the CPU aliases from the processor scope code in DSDT.

You can probably get around this issue simply by using a modern version of Chameleon, just keep in mind that you cannot boot a DVD distro (that already has a Hackintosh boot loader on it) with a Chameleon boot CD. You must use a retail DVD to install.

 

...

 

Or you could try booting your distro with the CPUS=1 flag. It should work, if the problem is caused by the CPU aliases in DSDT...and if that boot flag works on an old distro.
