LukeMotion Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Hey folks, I know this subject has come up before but I'll post a little more detail on the matter. So basically I have vanilla Snow Leopard installed using Empire EFI and my firewire is not working. The controller is not recognized in system profiler. The motherboard is a Asus P5B Deluxe with a Q6600. The firewire controller is integrated onto the board using the PCI-Express bus along with the dual Ethernet controllers which are Marvell Yukons which worked fine. After reading up on here, I tried removing the applehpet.kext and my firewire port works fine along with my audio interface but the Ethernet not longer works. The controller is recognized but it does not detect a cable plugged? I'm going to try adding the applehpet.kext back onto the unit off my Macbook Pro and see if that gets the Ethernet back but I assume the Firewire will go back to where it was. I think its because they are both on the PCI-E Express Bus. Anyone here in a similar situation or know of any possible fixes?
