First of all credit goes to verdant of this forum. He has written a wonderful and very

 

detailed guide for this specific motherboard. Salute to him. link is here for further

 

information.

The above guide is too leghty to read and remember every thing, so I have decided to write

 

my own a very small tutorial. Credit still goes to verdant.

 

I loaded the iAtkos L2 dmg in a mac notbook, and restored it to my usb pen drive. After that

 

I unloaded iatkos l2 dmg and loaded my usb pendrive copied AppleNForceATA.imk64bit.kext and

 

nForceLAN.0.64.5.kext into S/L/E of usb pendrive (used show all files application to unhide

 

the folders)

 

After Clean Install, Booted through USB, then selected HDD with -v boot flag

Deleted original AppleRTC.kext and copied only these kexts to S/L/E

 

1. AppleRTC.Patched.kext & AppleRTC.10.6.8.kext (Both)

2. nForceLAN.0.64.5.kext

3. AppleNForceATA.imk64bit.kext

4. EvOreboot.kext

5. FakeSMC.kext

6. IntelCPUMonitor.kext

7. NullCPUPowerManagement.kext

8. SuperIOFamily.kext

 

Copied DSDT.aml file to Desktop

Ran [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] 4.2.1 for Lion and selected these items

 

1. User DSDT Install

2. System Utilities

3. Drivers & Bootloaders/Kexts & Enablers/Audio/Universal/VoodooHDA 0.2.7.3

4. Customization/System Definitions/Mac Pro/MacPro 3.1

5. OSx86 Software

 

clicked install, did not reboot yet, Then installed latest chameleon 2.0 RC5 r1224vs on os

 

partition.

 

then removed usb and restarted my computer with -v boot flag. It ran osx without any kp.

 

Note: After update to 10.7.3 just deleted original appleRTC.kext and made sure that

 

AppleRTC.Patched.kext & AppleRTC.10.6.8.kext (Both) were in S/L/E. Just repaired permissions.

 

My vga cards GeForce 8500GT 512Mb, 9800GTX+ 512Mb work out of the box without any extra

 

effort. I used these cards separately not in SLI mode.

 

I have uploaded all necessary files (including dsdt.aml, org.chameleon.Boot.plist and

 

smbios.plist) at kexts.com at the following link:

 

http://www.osx86.net...4bit_kexts.html

 

Now I m running my hackintosh without any KP.

 

Once again all credit goes to verdant.
