Jean-Seb Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 It's working. Update to 10.5.6, then re-install the driver packages (http://rapidshare.com/files/156863271/MSIWindDrivers.mpkg.zip) then apply the kexts in this package: http://forums.msiwind.net/download/file.php?id=740 Reboot, works Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dadrkside40 Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 Yes it worked. I just did i that way (i have a Retail Install on my wind): 1. Downloaded the 10.5.6 Update directly from Apple (http://support.apple.com/downloads/Mac_OS_X_10_5_6_Update?viewlocale=de_DE) (my Wind already had 10.5.5 else take the Combo Update 2. Pluged In my USB Keyboard an Mouse 3. Installed the Update (do not reboot now) 4. Installed the driver Pack (http://rapidshare.com/files/156863271/MSIWindDrivers.mpkg.zip) 5. Rebootet using the Options -v -f -F at the Chameleon prompt 6. Installed the Kext's of the second (http://forums.msiwind.net/download/file.php?id=740) package using Kexthelper (http://cheetha.net/) 7. Final reboot, congratulations you now got a 10.5.6 Wind. If your Sleep doesnt work after that just follow the hint from this Thread (http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=141324) Turn on "Restart automatically after a power failure" in Energy Saver -> Options. That did it for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cdummy Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 Not for me. After I did Your way I get a blue screen with mouse that I can move no icons or bar. Looks like I have to reinstall the whole system. So after reinstall: 1. If You use DisplayConfigX - uninstall 1024x600 resolution. 2. Restart 3. Reapeat all steps from here: 1. Downloaded the 10.5.6 Update directly from Apple (http://support.apple.com/downloads/Mac_OS_X_10_5_6_Update?viewlocale=de_DE) (my Wind already had 10.5.5 else take the Combo Update 2. Pluged In my USB Keyboard an Mouse 3. Installed the Update (do not reboot now) 4. Installed the driver Pack (http://rapidshare.com/files/156863271/MSIWindDrivers.mpkg.zip) Don't reboot now 5. Installed the Kext's of the second (http://forums.msiwind.net/download/file.php?id=740) package using Kexthelper (http://cheetha.net/) 5. Rebootet using the Options -v -f -F at the Chameleon prompt 7. Final reboot, congratulations you now got a 10.5.6 Wind. Now install DisplayConfigX 1. Download DisplayConfigX 2. Move app to application folder 3. Reproduce the 800x600 after boot (not by change in display - by boot!) 4. Run DisplayConfigX from application folder 5.There are 5 tabs: Monitor Resolution Install Card Test Screen - go to resolution 6. Click + add 7. From the top menu choose custom and 1024 600 and refresh rate 60 8.Click Done 9. Go to next tab install 10. Install unregistered 11. Go to resolutions tab uncheck them all up to 1024x600 12.
