Help with MSI P43 Neo3-F motherboard

[upinthecloude]

Hey guys, I have a MSI P43 Neo3-F mobo.

Retail installed Leopard, everything went fine.

 

I removed CPUPowerManagement.kext because it was causing problems.

the booted with -v flags to see why it still wasn't booting.

 

Here's what I saw:

MAC Framework successfully initialized

using 16384 buffer headers and 4096 cluster IO buffer headers

 

Followed this thread:

http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=86298

 

And I realized it was a problem with the ACPIPlatform kext. I replaced the original kext with the one SticMac posted. Chown'd it, CHMOD'd it, and removed Extensions.mkext.

 

Still no go. When I boot it is still stuck on the 16384 buffer headers and 4096 cluster IO buffer headers part.

 

Does anybody know what is causing this problem? Thanks
