Sony Vaio VGN-FE550G finally! But.....

[Dr Wu]

I finally got OSX installed . Seems to be running smooth. I spent a few hours on the boards searching , but have found nothing exactly related to my Vaio . So I am a bit unsure how to proceed .But I have a few issues:

 

1.Ethernet is not detected

 

2.No sound (of course) , but when I plug in my HK Soundstiks via USB , they aren't detected. They act as a soundcard , and were detected when running Ubuntu .

 

3.Wireless (of course) Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG (searching and waiting )

 

4. I cannot set the HD as the default , so for now I can only boot with the install disk in. I found the work around , but they only mention partition's. Not a single boot install . So not quite sure how to set that in the Terminal.

 

I have searched regarding sound , and see something regarding sound in BIOS , I booted to BIOS but did not see that option to enable . So what may I be missing ?

 

Here are spec's :

 

Intel Core Duo Processor T2400

Speed: 1.66GHz

Front Side Bus Speed: 667MHz

L2 Cache: 2MB (all Configurations)

Front Side Bus Speed: 667MHz

L2 Cache: 2MB (all Configurations)

Intel 945GM chipset
