m3g3b Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Hey guys, long time reader, first time post. After months of trying to get OSX up and running on my machine, I finally managed to get through. Im pretty happy about it but the thing is, I can only have one core on my core 2 duo enabled. I was hoping if anyone out there can point me to the right direction on how to enable all cores on my system I would greatly appreciate it. If not then I dont mind picking up another motherboard. My system specs: ECS G33T-M2 (kabyl modded bios) E6550 @ 2.33 stock 4GB DDR2 800 My current install is from Ideneb 10.5.6 with ACPI_SMC_Fix Cpus=1-Fix Chipset ICHx Audio ALC883 Ethernet RealtekR1000 Video NVinject 512mb Also I've read around that a user here, with the same motherboard that I have, have already achieved this feat. I sent him a message but sadly last time he logged on was over 4months ago. I also picked up a retail version of Leopard because I read about boot 132 but I get stuck on DMSO Starting. Then my DVD stops spinning. If anyone out there can help me, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks for taking the time to read my post.
