I've tried your latest W520-DSDT-2-Quadro-1000m.aml (renamed to dsdt.aml an placed in Extra) but it's still the same.

thank you for great guide Josh! your video shows completely different approach agains what I've always been doing with Uni****t ... the system's running faster, no crashes so far... but my sound, usb3, sleep mode & SD card reader does not work. Is it the way it's supposed to be  or I'm missing something on my W520? I used the kext you listed here earlier (ML10.8) and placed DSDT.aml for W520 in Extra.

Hi Joss,

When I replace device (HDEF) layout on my W520 "dsdt.aml" as you adviced I will get an error -  would you please have a look at the screenshot enclosed? I might be doing something wrong, excuse me please.. I'm very new to OSx86.

I've tried to place my patched dsdt.aml file to /Extra/ but OS does not pick it up (when I reboot and extract DSDT again, the content is original).

After I install AppleHDA (using kext wizard), my OS failes to start, I needs to restore to get back.

Any idea?

Hi Simon, I'm really sorry to trouble you again with this but my osx86 ended up belly up and i cant start it up and restoring again would you do me a massive favour and explain me a bit more in details how you have done it, what tools did you use? I'm trying to apply what you say on Gothic's guide.. but i've probably misunderstood something and so i keep breaking my system over and over. Did you use ##### at all? (what setting?) how did you get your smbios.info and the othe info file to the system?

I'm sure you know this but you can get a replacement for your internal wifi card that's suppose to work (one with atheros chipset listed here / ebay - 5$)

Is your USB3.0 working as well? The webcamera?

Hi Simon,

Would you be please so kind and summarize what you've done? I have exactly the same W520 like you.. but get all sort of troubles running 10.8.1 on it. Did you manage to make the original intel wifi work? What kexts did you use for the soundcard? Card reader? None if mentioned work for me....

Thank you,

Tomas
