Hi InsanelyMac's community ! I hope your going well !

I send this message to request your help ^^. Indeed, I installed OSX Mountain Lion on my ASUS X53SV. And it works pretty well ! I was all the more astonished since all the components were recognized by kexts in this site !
(If you put a little investment of yourself, you will get there ! All it takes to make this manipulation is in this site It's worth it !)

Well, almost of these components worked well …
The only issue is my wireless, my webcam and my USB 3.0. I tried to install these kexts corresponding but in vain.
Futhermore, I recieved a kernel panic one time in two when I want to boot up my "Hybrid" computer, and I don't know why :/
Also, I have a freeze who they tell me to reboot my computer without knowing why. Like, I'm playing the Russian roulette in going on my PC !

So if anybody who have a solution of these issues, I would take it cheerfully !

Thanking you in advance,
Sincerely yours,
RyuujiX

P.S : I attached the kernel panic that I see when I boot my PC :

[p.H]

for kernel panics, you need to post your screenshot with -v booting flag.

[Ryuujix]

Here is the kernel panic in -v mode :

Boot with -f -v and check that your using smbios that matches your hardware as best as possible

[p.H]

what do you mean booting your hybrid computer ?
plus, it's better to post your specs here

[Ryuujix]

I will try to put a MacBook Pro 8,2's SMBIOS right now. Is it right ?

Here is my specs :

• Processor:     2nd Gen Core i7 Intel i7-2670QM / 2.2 GHz ( 3.1 GHz ) ( Quad-Core )
  
• Memory:         6 GB / 8 GB (max)
  
• Hard Drive: 750 GB - Serial ATA-300 - 5400 rpm
  
• Display Type: 15.6 in TFT active matrix
  
• Graphics Processor: NVIDIA GeForce GT 540M + Intel HD 3000 Graphics
  
• WLAN b/g/n, 2x USB 2.0, 1x USB 3.0
  
• HDMI / VGA

No, in meaning hybrid computer, is to tell that my computer is a computer who welcomed OSX where normally he welcomed W7 and not OSX (A kind of diminutive.)

Boot with -v -x  and then delete Nvidia and AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext from extension (NVDGF100HAL, NVDANK100HAL, NVDANV40HALG7, NVDANV50HAL and NVDARresman.kext. reboot

[eep357]

I don't see anything related to your graphics, kextd which is causing kernel panic, is system process responsible for building your boot kernel cache. Booting with -f should avoid any KP, but is slower than booting with cache, check chameleon plist for Use Kernel Cache=Yes/No. Also rebuild cache while you have console open and see if any errors. Use terminal command:

sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions

If any kext is preventing cache from building properly remove it, very well could be graphics kext, or others

delete also Geforce.kext from your S/L/E usb installer

[Ryuujix]

Alright, Thanks you very much sok5, eep357 and bberts ! I will try it right away in the evening

[Ryuujix]

(As an aside, can you can help me on the Wi-Fi ? I tried to install the kext for Atheros Asus X53SV but in vain.
By going to the network panel, I have the only choice of Ethernet :/)

[bberts]

if u have intel is hard

Hi!

Which version of Mountain Lion are you using? If you're trying the latest, 10.8.2, the solution is as simple as it can be: google for kozlec's FakeSMC (or search here on insanelymac for a thread callled HWSensors). Then install it and you're good to go.

Good luck.

[Ryuujix]

I will update my OSX to 10.8.2 and try it
Hope that it will working !

[Ryuujix]

@theconnactic : I successfully update to 10.8.2 and I found that : http://www.insanelym..._hl__ hwsensors
But, I don't understand how it works ( ^^ " ). Do I have installed something ? Because there are any FakeSMC.kext, I can see a FakeSMC folder, but inside there are files that I don't know what is it.
Maybe I took it wrong ?

[theconnactic]

Did you install the HWMonitor package?

[Ryuujix]

No it's good I finally installed HWMonitor with your help. The download button was well hidden ...
I took this version: HWSensors 1.0.115.pkg
But two problems have persisted :
...The first is that Wi-Fi is still unavailable :/
...The second is that by curiosity, I turning on HWMonitor, and I could see that the CPU is near 239 ° F and displayed in red. Should I not worry of that or whether instead?
(CPU cores n°1,2,3,4 turn around 104-113 °F and they are displayed in black which mean theoretically normal)

But the good news is that for now there is no kernel panic on the horizon.
One thing that thank the community very much by the way
