weekni Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 I got my PC working with iAtkos S3 10.6.3 release: ASUS P5KC Intel QX6850 (QuadCore 3GHz) 4 Gb mem (2x2 DDR2) nVidia 8800GTS - dual dvi 2560x1600x32 IDE DVD drive (wow, 1st snow distro that recognized my old ide DVD) 1TB sata Toshiba drive firewire (works) Conclusion: iAtkos S3 v2 works OOB using customize wizard, no post install hacks needed, all done via iAtkos installer and customize button! BIOS: enable AHCI disable CPU speedstep set 1st boot DVD rom to run install and then after install back to disk again Customized settings: bootloader (default 1st one) Important IDE ATA for P5Kc: Intel/ATA => I think this one, legacy IDE drivers - did the trick to boot all the way to desktop, otherwise it will hang in grey screen JMicron Network: AttansicL1 Video: nvenabler Audio: disabled => I use RME via firewire (works) Purpose: Audio/MIDI: so now installing RME FireFace800 drivers: multichannel audio works! Ready to go! Thanks & Respect to uphuck & iAtkos team! (I wanted to reply on p5kc problem topic, but can not post as newbe..., hope this helps to all fellows with P5KC problems) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What else should I do this Snow Leopard install is killing me.... Thanks for you help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulster44 Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 Similar setup Asus P5W DH. SL setup up fine. Can't get my firewire to work for my RME. Works fine in Win7. TI chipset for firewire. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
