synmaster Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 This is super frustrating. I had the sound working previously in 10.5.6 retail, so I know it works. Of course I have no idea what I did originally to patch it. That install was throwing tons of everything I had in the extras folder and running every patch i had. I didn't even know I had working sound. Until I went to check, and I just figured it was simple. I decided to try and install iPC to see how that went. Well it went, and my sound went with it. So I did the obvious and formated and reinstalled the retail again. Now no matter what HDA kext I put, I get nothing. I have tried the EFI strings, AppleHDAPatcher, ALC888Audio.mpkg, AzaliaAudio.pkg, osx86tools, EFIstudio, GigabyteP35CC, etc tried permissions, DSDT.aml etc Obviously I am missing something. Since it worked the first time Here is the build MB GIGABYTE GA-G41M-ES2L 775 R CPU INTEL|C2Q Q8200 2.33G 775 4M R VGA SPARKLE SX98GT512D3L-NM 9800GT Install using Boot123 / Retail 10.5.6 / Chameleon 2.0 Hopefully somebody can shed some light on my problem.

Sorry I do not have the answer to your question but I need your input on the install you have. I just purchased the GA-G41M-ES2L today at Frys (wanted GA-G31M-ES2L but that is now discontinued). I am trying to install using boot 123 and Retail 10.5 but I cannot get past the starry window beach ball. It gets stuck there with no messages whatsoever. My rig is E5200, GA-G41M-ES2L with both DVD and HDD on IDE. HDD is set to master and DVD is set to slave. What exactly is your setup and how did you manage to get your install going?

Hello all, i'me running SL on the G41M-ES2L every worked fine with many guides around. but yesterday i wanted to give 64bit kernel boot a try (my EFI is 64bit so should be ok), indeed it booted nicely but i seem to have lost 2 features: -one being the SOUND , no sound anymore when booting 64bit -the other being the sleep function (sleepEnabler i guess), my computer no more goes off in sleep i guess i need 64bit drivers (kexts, DSDT or so , i'm new to mac world and don't understand much) for these 2 little guys can anyone help me on that ? what I know: - i know kext are like drivers and how to intall them via kext helper - i know how to remove a kext (via a terminal line) - i know the DSDT manages a lot of info but looks complicated in 32 bit I ran myhack installer and everything worked nicely (lan, audio, graphic 9500GT) and even boot without cd/key but in 64 bit boot i have the sound and sleep problem THANKS in advance !

Jade Tiki Puku Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 I have the G41M-ES2L and would like to find a resolution to the 888B sound issue, if I look in system preferences-sound there are no sound devices at all. Hmmmm..... This is a very good way of installing SL and I am grateful of all the hard work that others have done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
