Hello everybody,

 

I've searched and found no answer to my question so I post it here.

 

Specs:

ga-g41m-esl2

gainward 8400gs

pentium e6500

2gb ram

lifehacker method

 

I installed retail 10.6.0 with lifehacker method, updated to 10.6.4 and ran the magic installer afterwards to install to disk. I patched dsdt code for sound alc887, and that worked great along with some kexts. My video card has qe/ci and all is great. The only thing not recognized is my processor, which says: unknown @2,97 ghz (it's 2,93 ghz actually). I haven't been able to find a dsdt.aml file for my processor on ridgeline's site, but I've read it's the same processor as core2duo e7500 with 1mb L2 cache less. So can I copy the processor info from the ridgeline's dsdt for core2duo e7500 to my dsdt? What kind of consequences would it have if it didn't work? Does this have an impact on speedstep and is it important to have speedstep enabled? I'm sory if these are noob questions, but that's what I am:) I really don't want to bork this install because I already have loads of apps installed and the system is rock solid, no KPs or anything.

While I'm writing, another question, can I add one more gb of ram without changing the dsdt? I understand that is no problem, but I ask just in case.

 

I would appreciate any advice you can give me, I already learned a lot from your great community and hope to further my knowledge with your help.

 

Cheers!
