Can't Get Audio To Work - iATKOS v5i

[nosoapradio]

Hello,

This is my first posts after many weeks of reading.

 

I finally decided to take the plunge and test out the world of OSX86. I had an older system laying around and I thought it would be a perfect guinea pig (if this works then I'll probably buy a new system with the latest and greatest parts).

 

I was able to load iATKOS v5i (10.5.5) without any problems. Everything is working except for my audio. Under the "System Profiler" > Hardware > Audio, it says, "No Built-in Audio".

 

Here are my system specs:

MOBO: Abit iC7-MAX3

CPU: PEN 4 (Northwood) 3 GHZ

RAM: 3 GB

VID: Nvidia GeForce 6600 GT

AUDIO: (Built-In) Realtek ALC650 , I also have a Turtle Bay Santa Cruz card and neither works

 

In the EXTENSIONS folder there is a .kext for AppleAC97 which is supposed to work.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Please keep in mind that I am a total noob who is quite dense, so any detailed instructions would be very helpful.

 

Cheers,

NSR
