Hi, I'm trying to patch the DSDT on a system I'm setting up.

The Motherboard is an ASROCK H61M-DGS and I'm using an i7 3770 with Intel HD 4000 Graphics and Realtek ALC662 audio.

I'm having issues with errors when compiling, just wondering if someone could take a look for me.

Thanks and happy new year

Could we change the forum structure so when you click 'Start New Topic' and type your thread title, the forum searches the database and shows 5 or 6 results that match your thread title.

I think this may help to stop so many threads on the same subject being started.

This is my second G5 and ended up much cleaner than my old one.

I wanted to re-do my case as the previous G5 I aquired had a few scratches so I sanded the whole thing down and polished it up. It looked good but it kept needing polishing and I wanted apple logos on the sides
I also had an issue with case temps due to the PSU fan which was blowing air down through the top tray into the case.
I tried flipping the fan over so it was sucking the case air out but that actually made things worse?!

So armed with a few ideas, a bit more experience and a few tubes of JB weld I set about making this...

I started with a very clean G5 that had motherboard issues and 2 bent G5s. I stripped them all down, took all the standoffs from the broken g5s to be re-used along with all bolts and any other useful bits.






I then cut the back out after measuring it up against the mountain-mods 2x80mm motherboard tray that I had to order from Germany and used salvaged G5 standoffs for the supports.













Next the HDD caddy, rad flange (lol...flange), and reservoir mount.










For the PSU I wanted to place it up top where the HDDs are normally, like I've done previously, but unlike my first case mod I didn't want to cut a hole in the top tray for the bottom mounted PSU fan, I wanted to keep the air in the case separate to the PSU to try to bring my case temps down (they were around 50c ambient inside the case).
After looking around for a PSU with a front mounted fan and finding nothing worth using I though I'd bite the bullet and just make my own.

I used a few bits of aluminium sheet I had laying around, cut them to size and then JB welded them together using various objects to hold the pieces in place.



Once it had set I drilled a few holes for the fans, got them mounted up using a few G5 fan guards...I like a bit of recycling, saving the planet and all that.




I wanted the PSU to be silent but due to the size of the top section of the G5 I was restricted to 80mm max, that meant finding the quietest fans I could.
Queue Sharkoon with their Silent Eagle range.
I'm using 2x80mm fans @ 1000rpm for the PSU and you cant even hear them when they're running.

So with the PSU cover sorted I had to start on mounting the PSU to the top shelf. Easily done with a few salvaged standoffs and a bit of good ol' JB weld. It has a picture of a tractor on the packet so it must be ok for PC's..or is it a MAC still?...




So PSU mounted on the shelf and the wiring extended to some insulated female spades ready to plug into the snap-in IEC connector I had acquired.

Once in I had to sort all the wiring out...
I wanted it to be as clean as possible inside for airfl....na.. I just wanted it to look good So I cut all the wiring to the right length, put the connectors back on etc..all very tedious stuff.


Then the fun job of building it all up



Put some coolant in it and put the PSU cover on.



Fire her up, bog roll in hand to catch any drips...there weren't any!



Back in business!

Here's a screenshot and a geekbench from a little while ago to show what it can do.

I've just got 'Wake for Ethernet Access' to work and Wake on Demand along with it.
Now when I turn on the AppleTV2 it wakes my Hack. all this is fine, by my concern is this:

Now when ever my girlfriend puts her iPhone 4s on charge (a wall socket charger) it mysteriously wakes my Hack?!

I can see the following as the wake reason:

Jun 10 01:10:17 Jamess-Mac-Pro kernel[0]: Wake reason: UHC1
Jun 10 01:10:17 Jamess-Mac-Pro kernel[0]: SMC::setPowerState ERROR: smcPublishSleepCause failed (kSMCKeyNotFound)
Jun 10 01:10:17 Jamess-Mac-Pro kernel[0]: The USB device WirelessControllerDevice (Port 1 of Hub at 0x1d000000) may have caused a wake by issuing a remote wakeup (2)
Jun 10 01:10:17 Jamess-Mac-Pro kernel[0]: HID tickle 157 ms

So it's something to do with a wireless device as I have no Wi-Fi on the Hack.

Is that normal?
