Any Asus G50/G60 owners managing to power down fully?

[Tamed G]

I know a bunch of people out there are using these fantastic laptops and having great success with SL using the Empire EFi installation method and very few kexts to get a nice install. (I'm one of them )

 

Just wondering if anyone has managed to work out how to fully power down their system with shutdown.

 

Closest I get is CPU halt, screen off but my hardware lights and fan stay on.

I have that same laptop and I'm currently working on installing 10.6. Would you mind sharing some problems and methods for getting OSX86 installed? So far I have no wireless, sound, direct rendering, screen rez and most of all my mouse is VERY 'laggy'

 

Regarding your issue, I have experienced similar. I have this link below which might provide a solution

• Make sure you download the Kext and DSDT pack Kevin171 links in post #17 and use those files.
  
• Make sure you have bios 206 or higher ( use 207 for the G60 laptop)
  
• Make sure you use Empire Efi boot disk to install OSX
