Marc R. Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 Hello everyone, This is my 3rd hackintosh and the first one with that problem: my clock is gaining 1 seconds every two seconds, making my computer ahead of the real time. I have to open "Time & Hour" so that the clock is put back to the real time. But not for long. The clock is running fine in the BIOS and on XP/Vista but not on OsX. Is there a setting that I missed to adjust to make Leopard work with my motherboard bus speed or my memory speed or CPU speed ? By the way, how do OsX "calculate" the time ? Is it based on the bios clock directly ? I have been around forums for the last few days without finding a real answer to the problem. Some suggested playing with busratio but someone posted that busration is not needed anymore with 10.5.7 Also, in the BIOS, I disabled EIST (Speedstep) but it doesn't change anything. Any idea most welcome ! Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/171855-i7-920ga-ex58-ud4pefi-x1057-clock-going-too-fast/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryansimms Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 I'm getting the same issue on my GA-EX58-UD3R with three different installations (PC Wiz's PCEFI v9, Digital Dreamer's Chameleon 2.0 RC1, Digital Dreamer's Chameleon 1.012). I keep getting this error in the system log: WARNING: AppleUSBAudio has detected that clock_get_uptime () value changed radically from previous values. It's causing all sorts of problems on my system, so I hope we can get it worked out.

ryansimms Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 OK, so I fixed the problem on my system (with the help of VooD and Digital Dreamer). I found this post where Digital Dreamer said that the older bootloader (Chameleon 1.012) was not compatible with the vanilla kernel, so I used OSX86 Tools to install the Voodoo 9.6.0 kernel and it worked. I'm not sure what kind of mojo EFI-X uses, but the voodoo 9.6.0 kernel might be worth a shot.

I do would not like to change things and run into trouble at each update. The EFI-X key come with the Chameleon 2.x version (graphical version). I still haven't find the solution....
