Running a bit slow

[Zodiakk]

Hi all, First post and first time Hackintosh-er.

 

I installed Leopard with iATKOS v7 yesterday after wrestling with it for several hours. Once I finally got into the installer, all went smooth.

 

I have a Dell Vostro 1500 with the following specs:

Intel t5200

2GB Ram

Nvidia 8400m

Broadcom 440x NIC

Sigmatel Audio (don't remember which, but I used the 9205 driver from the Dell Package and it worked)

 

On the bright side of things, nearly everything works. Sound, Wireless, Not sure if Ethernet works as I don't have an available connection, Video Card, Trackpad, Keyboard, the usual things.

 

The only thing that doesn't work is Shutdown/Restart, it ends up hanging at a black screen with my power light on and no activity, so I just hard shut down it.

 

Anyway, I believe I used NVInject to get the VGA card working, and everything shows up in system profiler as working. QE/CI is working as well.

 

Anyway, the system seems to run kind of sluggish, slow mouse, scrolling is kind of slow, etc.

 

It's ran this way since I installed, but just now got everything else working, so I figured it was time to try and conquer that problem. I searched all over the place on here and the internet, and I've tried most of the things I have found with no success. I have booted with platform-x86PC, cpus=1, cpus=2, -legacy and one other I can't remember, but it still runs pretty rough.

 

Anyone have any suggestions? I know this comes up a lot in these forums, and I've read through a lot of the articles and haven't found anything that may help me out.

 

Thanks a lot in advance, and muchos gracias for all the articles I used to get through the intall.
