I have snow leopard and windows 7, dual booted working on the system bellow.

 

AMD x4 965 CII @3.4ghz

5850 xfx reference

4gb 1066mhz Dominator DDR2

TA790gx 128mb ALC888 audio

Intel SSD 80g, partitioned, plus 1tb Samsumg F3 Secondary

 

Ok almost everything is working, boots in 6sec everything is fast, no kernel panics, reboot shutdown, 5850 beta drivers. All working on 10.6.4

 

There is only two problems.

 

The first is iTunes, itunes was at 8.x something, but when I checked for updates it wouldn't find a update for itunes so I deleted all the files for itunes I could find, and download the the latest 9.0.2, problem is that when I go to preferences or to sign in to my account, I just get a white box with nothing on it. Really strange I searched google but could not find anything similar. Also if I quit itunes, it instantly reopens.

 

Second problems which is way more minor, is the sound. I have Voodoohda kext which is working great for my sound except for I can not control volume without going all the way into settings (mute works fine), and second when the system boots I have to switch to the green out port as it is my g35 headset by default, anyone know how to change it to green out as default?

 

Besides that everything is perfect, ilife, office 2011. Everything just works, except itunes.

 

Hope someone wiser than me can help me with this :)

 

Thanks in advance

The first issue with iTunes sounds like CPUID issue. Get 'Marvin's AMD Utility' and google 'patch CPUID 10.6.4. You should get many guides with instructions.

 

As for the audio part, there's a voodoohda kext that has volume control enabled in it. It's here on the forum, I just don't remember where.

Thanks a lot!

 

Ok going to try the cpu thing.

 

Yes I already tried the modified voodoo kext and it didn't work, sound is all fuzzy and choppy and still no sound control. And yes the ApleeHDA doesn't work so I deleted it. Also in system information it doesn't detect any sound even though there is and it is working with voodoo, so maybe that is part of the problem.

Insane Worked Perfectly thanks a lot!

 

This is what I did I download this legacy kernel thing from here http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=221599 and then I downloaded the maxxuspathergui and macosx10.6.4.cpuid.text from http://nawcom.com/osx86/cpuids/ drag the cpuid over the gui. Let it work and reboot.

 

What it fixed:

 

My iTunes Problems

My Volume Control Problems and newly discovered

iPhoto Problems so everything is perfect now

 

Except for not fan control for my 5850, but can't really complain over that!

 

Thanks a lot I now have a perfect hackintosh build on my rig!

You're welcome. Update your sig to reflect it. That fix should have solved your unknown quicktime issues and issues with spotlight search you might not have known of.
