Rampage Dev Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 I patched and cleaned your DSDT but I did not do the dual link patch. You need to post a IOreg and a link to your laptops product page. Install DSDT in your extra folder and then restart then extract your IOreg. Then post the IOreg and your entire Extra folder. For IOreg follow my guide here: http://rampagedev.wordpress.com/2012/07/20/how-to-use-ioreg/ DSDT.aml.zip 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newbee82 Posted September 19, 2012 Author Share Posted September 19, 2012 At first many thanks for your work. The system boot fine with your patched dsdt. So i could make the ioreg steps. Attached you´ll find the services and device tree extracted with ioreg and my extra folder with your patched file. I hope that this are all informations you need to help me again. I can´t send you a link to my customer for the specs, cause they have updated this laptop for a while and old model isn´t there any more. i can only send you a detailed list which hardware is used in my System. Thanks you very much!! ioreg.rar Extra.rar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
