Compaq Presario V3000 LAPTOP Intel Core 2 Duo CPU T7500 @ 2.20GHz BIOS ver 1.00PARTTBL8 2 x 1 GB RAM Mobile Intel 965 Express Chipset Family Conexant High Definition SmartAudio HD2 HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-T20L ATA Device Marvell Yukon 88E8039 PCI-E Fast Ethernet Controller Intel® Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN 3 partitions - 1 for Windows 7 (30GB - NTFS) - 1 for MAC OSX (30GB - MAC OS Extended (Journaled) - originally FAT32) - 90 GB unallocated space (going to format it to use soon) here's the picture of it when i'm in Disk Management in Windows 7 the one without initials is the MAC OSX partition. PROBLEMS: 1) the sound card is not working 2) the ethernet/wireless is not working 3) the keyboard (laptop) is not working 4) the touchpad is not working (but my USB mouse is) 5) MAC OS Extended (Journaled) doesnt show up in My Computer when i'm in Windows problem 5 is causing me to unable to do any changes in attempt to solve problems 1-4... and, regarding the problems, i've tried using kext, by placing it in the extensions folder. however, it doesnt mean to work. and IOUSBFamily.kext caused my USB to not even work, so i had to re-install MAC OSX. other kext like ApplePS2Controller.kext, etc, doesnt work. either i did it wrongly, or something is really wrong. please help! thank you! any help is much appreciated! p/s: i've already searched this forum, other forums, and googled, but no solutions found. ): Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/199577-many-many-problems-and-found-solutions-not-working-at-all/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

pdave54 Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 ok have to clarify something . you say sound etc is not working, and because you can not see the hack/mac drive from windows you can not fix them. You can boot into os x because you re=installed it , so why can't you fix it within os x Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/199577-many-many-problems-and-found-solutions-not-working-at-all/#findComment-1342864 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats the way it is, lots of people do lots of reinstalls before they get everything working. back up your windows somewhere first would be a good idea Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/199577-many-many-problems-and-found-solutions-not-working-at-all/#findComment-1343515 Share on other sites More sharing options...

pdave54 Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Sorry I can't give you all the fixes. It will take research. Have you tried looking in the Tutorials (Genius Bar). I always look there first. And I would concentrate on one fix at a time & of course back up after each step http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/style_ima...icons/icon1.gif Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/199577-many-many-problems-and-found-solutions-not-working-at-all/#findComment-1343670 Share on other sites More sharing options...
