Processor: E7200 2.56GHz

Chipset: 82801

Graphics: Palit 8400GS (256MB)

 

iATKOS v7 (10.5.7) on default selection along with:

1) OHR

2) nVidia EFI string (DVI-VGA)

3) SATA/IDE

4) Voodoo HDA driver... onboard sound

5) NTFS-3G

6) Intel Gigabit... wired network

 

First attempt on a new Samsung HD with onboard graphic (Intel VGA drivers... selected all) formated as MBR: network via Ethernet bridge, and sound from USB and front and back audio plugs worked. But waking from sleep (Apple menu and by itself) does not work and required a hard reset from the power button.

 

(Read many posts on sleep and have tried EHCISleepEnabler.kext, but sleep/wake does not work.)

 

Second attempt on the same HD with 8400GS (no Intel VGA drivers, but with nVidia EFI string) reformated as MBR with two partitions: everything worked, except sleep/wake.

 

Then, I connected my original HD with Vista to the board as second SATA HD. Rebooted and Chameleon recognized both Windows partitions (main and recovery). Booted in OSX, then restarted in Vista. Worked beautifully getting on the internet, playing music, movies, etc.!

 

Cloned my main OSX to the second partition on the same drive (just in case).

 

A couple of issues:

Could someone please help with this sleep/wake issue by pointing me in the right direction?

Also, the installed Chameleon v2 bootloader created an "Extra" folder in the root drive. It's invisible, and I can't access it via the Finder. I've downloaded just the Chameleon installer, but the installer fails everytime with an error message stating that the final installation process failed. I read that the Chameleon's installer has a "forcewake kext" that I want to try to see if it would resolve my sleep/wake issue. Also, during Chameleon's boot screen on my 1080p TV connected via DVI-HDMI cable, all the icons seems super big and the progress bar is behind the startup volume, an issue of resolution (only during startup process) I hope to fix with a theme in the future. But, I need help with sleep/wake.
