00diabolic Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 Google for kext helper b7 and drag the SMBIOS file into kext helper. Hit the install button and reboot. Your done.

Gringo Vermelho Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 WARNING This thread is very old and contains outdated and obsolete information. You should leave AppleSMBIOS.kext alone and google/forum search smbios.plist Do not install any of the old and crusty SMBIOS injector kexts.
