Pukos Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 Start with the -v option from darwin boot and look for some ketx error... Or just try to replace the kext (I can't remeber the exact name) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/17372-440x-network-card-used-to-work/#findComment-112483 Share on other sites More sharing options...
fahad Posted May 15, 2006 Author Share Posted May 15, 2006 It does say something about kext i tried to follow another thread where i would replace a file in IOFamilyNetworking.kext and i tried that but it still doesn't work any other ideas?

Pukos Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 I'm not an advanced user but if you could tell me the exact error you receive peraphs we could find a solution... Anyway it's very strange that it stopped to work "by it self"... are you sure don't have "touch" some ketx file? Or installed some update? Or some app? MUST be a cause!

fahad Posted May 15, 2006 Author Share Posted May 15, 2006 it works! turns out that there was a problem with permissions and i repaired the disk (as i had done before) but this time it took longer in the end it finally worked!
