You must delete every single graphics kext. All intelHD kexts. All ATI kexts. ALL GEFORCE kexts. Since you have switchable graphics, your video card will more than likely never work. Should have got dedicated. If you can't uninstall kexts via the -s flag on startup, boot into windows and try deleting kexts using Transmac. If you need a "link" PM me.

Jugz....I removed all the Kexts and now i'm getting this: W836X: Found unsupported chip ID=0x85 Revision=0x18, IT87X: [ Warning] found unsupported chip ID=0x8518, F718x: Fintek: Found unsupported chip ID=0x85 Revision=0x18, intelcpumonitor: base on code by mercurysquad, superhai ©2008. intelcpumonitor: [Warning] unsupported intel processor found, Kext will not load Panic(cpu 0 caller 0xffffff80002c268d): Kernel trap at 0xffffff7f807f37e8, typ 13=general protection

Looks to me like it's trying to load kext's for hardware you don't have, namely the Nvidia stuff

[dawilliams660]

Should I look for it and remove it?.....i don't see it any where is there another place it might be at?

Did you get the sound working? And if so what did you use (also what did you remove)? Will it be the same in VMware or do you need to use special kexts/drivers for VMWare?

Sound should work fine with VoodooHDA.
