Big_Dawg Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 Hi: It was amazingly easy to install 10.4.5. from the Myz.iso; this is my first OSx86 install. However, I cannot seem to get the sound working. My MB is a Intel 945, but it has Realtek ALC655 sound. I have tried installing one of the ac97audio.kext files, finally got permissions straight, but still no sound. I have no way other than lspci in Knoppix to get PCI Vendor/Device IDs, as this is not a dual boot machine (No windows). lspci does not seem to be returning the expected information. Its a little confusing cobbling together resolution of this problem from the several versions of the OSx86 installs. Any ideas?

Sabr Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 You guys need to try going through this: http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/index.php/Audio It fixed it for me Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/12917-biostar-i945g-m7/#findComment-139463 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_Dawg Posted August 29, 2006 Author Share Posted August 29, 2006 I used the Wiki, didn't work. May have something to do with the fact that my MB has Intel 945G + ICH7 chipset and Realtek ALC655 6-Channel AC97 CODEC. Most of the other configurations (and kext files) seem to anticipate ICH6 with that codec.

Big_Dawg Posted August 30, 2006 Author Share Posted August 30, 2006 The answer is in the ICH7. I found that the kext file had to be rewritten for it.
