zeknewb Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 I could finally manage to have SL 10.6.1 plus Windows 7 64 bits running in my dell... I started formating the disk and loaded SL with the 132 boot. Mostly followed instructions at http://macyourpc.com/2009/09/13/mac-os-x-1...oot-132-method/ and http://www.dailyblogged.com/1508/retail-sn...allation-guide/ The main problem I am finding is sound. The voodoo kext doesnt work very well, mic volume keeps going down by itself and I have to change the device manually when I want to use headsets or external speakers instead of the internal ones. the other thing I get is some errors in the about this mac part... for instance in Memory it cant actually recognize the 2 gb installed. I keep getting some keyboard errors with MSN... but that is probably an MSN issue. The sleep function doesnt work... if I put it to sleep it will just restart and keyboard will remain locked for a while... dont know why... besides all this.... I love my Hackintosh! Is anybody working on a kext for Sigmatel stac 92xx? It would be great to have sound fully functional as it was on 10.5.6... bye! besides that everything runs softly Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/196806-dell-inspiron-1525-almost-everything-plus-dual-boot-w7/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

HuDuVuDu Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 EDIT: well I got everything installed to the internal HDD. SP now works. Mouse works (with out two finger scroll) I have almost everything working on my wifes 1525. Sleep only works on battery. the mouse did not work, then got it to work including two finger scroll. but it was way fast. every time I try to open system preferences to adjust it SP crashes. I rebooted and now it will not load. I am doing all this on an ext drive.
