cackintosh33 Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Let me start off by saying I am a newb to the osx86 scene and I am trying really hard to learn on my own but I just can't find all of the pieces to solve my problem. Please bare with me. My System Specs: GA-P35-DS4 mobo Intel Q6600 XFX 8600GT XXX 256mb CORSAIR 4GB WDC 500GB 7200rpm Samsung SH-S203B Antec Sonata III case I am currently trying to boot the retail DVD using the ga-p35-ds4 iso and I have run into some trouble. I can use the iso to get the retail Leopard DVD installed but I can't seem to get any further after install. Video, Ethernet and sound does not work. I see from ELASTICS posting that he also does not have audio working, which is not a problem because he is using usb, so I'm not to worried about audio. But when I install NVinject.kext my system freezes at the grey startup screen. No desktop even in safe mode. NVkush.kext does the same thing. And I have no idea how to get the ethernet working. Sorry, but I found the install of BOOT-132 a little vague. Does BOOT-132 install the kexts itself or do I need to do that myself after installing the retail DVD? I've tried both but and I still have all the same problems. I noticed, after unpacking ELASTICS extensions.mkext there was a ton of kexts. Is it necessary to have all of those kexts. There are far fewer kexts in non-related installs as well as the generic iso. http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?sho...5&start=800 Perhaps my BIOS settings is wrong. Would you mind posting BIOS setting? My BIOS Settings HDD smart = Enabled CPU Hyperthreading = Enabled Limit cpu id max 3 = disabled no execute protect = Enabled cpu halt c1e = disabled cpu thermal monitor = Enabled cpu eist = disabled virtualization tech = Enabled sata raid/ahci = ahci sata port 0-3 native = enabled usb controler = Enabled usb 2 controller = Enabled usb kb support = Enabled usb mouse support = Enabled legacy usb = Enabled azalia codec = Enabled onboard 1394 = Enabled onboard lan = Enabled lan boot rom = disabled onboard sata/ide device = Enabled onboard sata/ide device mode = ahci acpi suspend type = S3 soft of by pwr button = instant off hpet support = enabled hpet mode = 64 bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
