i have full ethernet working on my 790i with the nforce driver from the sticky. I used the pkg and installed it after removing my other drivers and it works great.

I recently bought a 790i and found out that people had network issues. So I installed iPC 10.5.6 w/ PPF 1 with the forcedeth driver. It worked initially, but because I'm dual booting, I got the self-assigned ip thing. I figured out how to get around that (by unplugging the whole computer for 30+ sec when I want to switch from vista to mac) and then I installed tulip driver from the iPC disc and now it works fully without any flags (using 208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220 dns servers) Anyone wanna try to make sense of this so that other people can get it to work too?

I just wanted to add that I got this driver, or at least the version on the iPC OSx86 10.5.6 disc, to work on my 790i without any flags after some tweaking with the manual ethernet settings.

Hi everybody! I had an x48 for a while and it worked fine for installing iAtkos, but when i switched to a 790i, iAtkos didn't boot up the install screen (still waiting for root device error). I went to Leo4all v2 and it booted up fine but at the customize screen i noticed there wasn't an option to install nforce kernal, but it did install. When i went to boot from darwin, it just restarted instantly. What should i do now? Hardware Specs: 790i Ultra SLI Patriot 1333 ddr3 q9450 @ 2.6 9800 gx2
