652 Posted October 5, 2010 Author Share Posted October 5, 2010 Hi, thanks for the prompt response. I downloaded this file, do I run it in OSx86 or Windows? Because I just reinstalled Windows 7 but I have it imaged so it's so problem, I can re-install OSx86 in about 20 minutes. From what I can tell it looks like it probably runs on OS X. I'll do it in a few hours, just got up, man did I sleep. L0l. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buschtrommel Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 Try this one: http://www.mediafire.com/?1sqfj220myxgb2u and install the kext with kexthelper! Editi the AudioMidiSetup to 44100,0 Hz I think your chip is a ALC270 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
652 Posted October 6, 2010 Author Share Posted October 6, 2010 First off, how do you know this..............? 2nd off, thank you, I will report back later with the results if it worked or not. 3rd I know how to install kexthelper but when I reboot do I have to type "-f"? Or do I have to delete some kinda file in the harddrives directory? I read another tutorial that said to. I don't know what the C:\ directory is called on a Mac sorry. 4rth can you please explain exactly how to "Editi the AudioMidiSetup to 44100,0 Hz". I'm kind of an OS X Newbie, L0l.

652 Posted October 6, 2010 Author Share Posted October 6, 2010 It does not seam to have worked, but I haven't edited the AudioMidiSetup to 44100,0 Hz yet so that might be why. Can you tell me how to do that now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because ur Soundchip is like mine. The Midi Edit is only 4 the quality. Only install VodooHDA with Kexthelper and reboot without any -f or something. (U need to delet AppleHDA (-System/Library/Extensions/) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
652 Posted October 7, 2010 Author Share Posted October 7, 2010 Well, I deleted AppleHDA.kext as you told me, still no audio, what's next? I checked under System Preferences > Output, there are no output devices......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
