Gravian Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 I Cant get any help on this site at all If you want us to help you, you're going to have to give us some specs on your system. What sound hardware are you using, what motherboard, what Kexts if any at all, etc? Which distro of OSx86 would be helpful too. Also, your kexts should be in /system/library/extensions. But whatever you do, don't go in there deleting stuff like a mad man, be careful what you delete and back up anything you plan to remove first! Also, if you are installing kexts you need to set permissions properly, the easiest way to do this is to use a program like Kexthelper which more or less does everything for you. And be prepared to reinstall if things go wrong. If you're new to this it's likely you'll brick your system once or twice before you get the hang of things.
