Hi guys

 

I have a HP 8510w, and I believe this laptop is similar to yours. I managed to get 10.6.3 working with the help of guys in this thread:

http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php...65517&st=60

 

So, might help you when messing around.

 

Can anyone post his/her DSDT.dsl file so that I can compare if there are similarities?

 

PS: anyone experiencing slow USB issues? I can only have USB 1.0 speeds.....

Vanilla Image :censored2:

 

I install Ideneb 10.5.6 to external disk ago....

Run this installation,

Mount the 10.6 dmg and run /Mac Osx Install Disc/System/Installation Packages/Osinstall.mpkg....

 

All vanilla but these kext replaced.

I not use /Extra/Extensions folder... Slow, and many dependencies....

 

 

 

PS: Sorry my poor english :)

Hello, I hope someone can help me out.

I also have an EliteBook 8530w and I am successful @ installing iDeneb 1.5.6 but my graphics are not too great. I can only be at 1024x768. When I try to run photobooth, the app tells me that my video adapter is not supported. I know it must be due to some weird kext missing or something.

 

Please advice.

 

My hardware:

 

Intel Core 2 Duo - T9550

ATI Mobility FireGL v5700

 

Thanks

If you guys want to tackle the BIOS, EzH2O is the tool you'll need. It's for InsydeH2O BIOSes. I believe there's also now a hacked BIOS available at the mydigitallife forums. What I really want is one for the 8540w, since I'd prefer a Core i7 system, and I can't get the 8530s refurbished anymore. (too old)
