SherifOne Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 UPDATE 5-8-08: Everything is fully functional on this board now. Had to switch over to Netkas 9.2.0 kernel so I could set the FSB to 333mhz (1333mhz). Loaded up a couple game demos, WoW and Visual Hub. Thing is blazing! Converted eight 45 minute TV episodes to H.264 in 47 minutes. Specs are as follows - Gigabyte GA-G33M-S2L Motherboard Intel Core 2 Quad Q9300 @ 2.5ghz 4gb Patriot DDR2 800mhz (2x 2gb) XFX 8600GT Overclocked w/ Zalman Cooler WD 640gb 2platter HD Lian Li A01B MicroATX case Lite-On Lightscribe 20x DVD-RW (I'll update with model) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...amp;Tpk=GA-G33M I am able to install from the Kalyway 10.5.2 disc, and I select the Vanilla Kernel. Realtek ALC662 Audio - Stereo Audio (Worked out of box) Realtek 8111B LAN - Fully works, no changes. Kalyway 10.5.2(Worked out of box) 8600GT XFX Overclocked - Works great with NVInject 0.21 Crappy $4.99 Bluetooth Dongle from dealextreme.com - (Worked out of box - Lol!) Shutdown - Restart - now functional. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/103636-gigabyte-ga-g33m-s2l-now-completely-functional/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
SherifOne Posted May 7, 2008 Author Share Posted May 7, 2008 Installing the latest AppleSMBIOS-27 rev 6 allows the machine to shutdown and restart... Sleep works perfectly as well. Very pleased! When I get home tonight I will test out the LAN. Only issue that has me baffled is the audio. Can someone point me to a thread, or has anyone heard of this? It stutters and distorts when pressing volume keys or making system sounds, but seems to do a little better when the sound is constant (like DVD audio).

SherifOne Posted May 9, 2008 Author Share Posted May 9, 2008 Is Firewire working properly? No firewire on this board. (Sadly) I couldn't find a G33M-D2SR so I went with this.

dino7777 Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 Hello, I got the G33M S2L too, as a second device. With Leo all works well. I drive ideneb, updated to 10.5.8, all functional. Question is if anyone has updated to SL? I got SL 10.6.2 with this board, but can not get the ALC 662 working, i.e. sound in and out. Only with VoodooHDA I get sound out. There a lots of descriptions out there the patch HDAEnabler, but whatever I do, the sound device is recognized as Device ID: 0x1458A002 Audio ID: 889 Available Devices: Line Out: Connection: 1/8-Inch Jack External Microphone: Connection: 1/8-Inch Jack S/P-DIF Out: Connection: Combo in SL, instead of AudioID=662. I d really like to get sound input too. what are your experiences with this board on SL? regards Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/103636-gigabyte-ga-g33m-s2l-now-completely-functional/#findComment-1389064 Share on other sites More sharing options...
