Blutchie Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 hi guys, I installed iDeneb v1.3 leopard 10.5.5 on my acer extrensa 5220. I had a few problems, but fixed that. The only major problem is that my dvd drive doesn't work. When I look in system profile, it says I don't have an ata device nor a dvd-writer. I hope someone could help me. my specs: Acer Extensa 5220 Mobile Intel® GM965 Express Chipset Intel Celeron M530 1.73 GHz Mobile Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) X3100 Slimtype DVD A DS8A1 dvd re-writer dl Intel High Definition Audio 2 GB DDR2 533MHz 80GB SATA Disk broadcom wifi Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/143198-slimtype-dvd-a-ds8a1p-not-working/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 Try this: IOATAFamily.kext.zip Backup and move to trash the one that you have in /System/Library/Extensions and install this kext with Kexthelper.
