jdl8422 Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 I just built my hackintosh -ASUS P5GC-MX/1333 -Intel C2D E5300 2.6GHz -Crucial 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 667 (PC2 5300) Dual Channel Kit -GIGABYTE GV-NX72G512E2 GeForce 7200GS 256MB 64-bit GDDR2 PCI Express x16 Video Card I just installed Kalyway 10.5.2 and it booted up. I checked the system profile and it registered as a Intel 2.6Ghz unknown processor. The RAM and the Video card show up but my D-Link DFE-530TX+ wont recognize. I installed Ubuntu and the card worked fine, but not under OSX. It doesnt even show anything being in the PCI slots. I did some research on this card and it says that the card works right out the box. Mine doesnt, I even installed the drivers. Am I missing something along the way? Everything else seems to work fine. My file server is pretty pointless without ethernet lol. Im a noob and need some help on this one. Thanks!

vilpostus Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 As for the system profiler, if the device is not shown, it doesn't mean it is not working. PC and Macs use a different approach in device addressing and managing. BIOS vs EFI. So under OS X on a PC devices may be not shown in system profiler. One may make them "appear" in the system profiler by adding some efi strings to apple.com.boot.plist. But this is only a cosmetic measure - that doesn't make a device to work. As for not working card... As far as I know, there are several modifications of the same card. So it must be needed to insert the Device/Vendor ID of your particular card to the kext.

Any guides on how to do that? Sorry I'm not new to Mac but new to Hackintosh.
