bigbang29 Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 Hello all After many days I finally got SL working on my ASUS G51JX but if I boot into 64 bit it gets to firewire and booting goes no further any ideas? any one? **EDIT** It would seem the appleRTC.kext is not loading in 64 bit mode any ideas any one? The problem for me was LegacyAppleRTC.kext in /E/E when running in 64 BIT . Delete it or everything with RTC in E/E . Then use NullCPUPowermanagement.kext . It will disable Other RTC kext in /S/L/E. Run pfix , boot with -f... Then if you got problem with restart or shutdown try to use EvoReboot.kext, with sleep -> sleepenabler.kext. I would also recommand you to use latest Chameleon (with Cstate and P State generating). If you want an installer try "Chameleon RC5 trunk 619" you will see a post from this great site ! or find dsdt fix ... and delete everything with RTC in /E/E Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/235729-64-bit-on-asus-g51jx-a1/#findComment-1574232 Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkythewondersquid Posted November 2, 2010 Author Share Posted November 2, 2010 Thank you for the reply the problem seemed to have worked out itself (sort of) I did a fresh install used "arch=x86_64" from first boot did the update to 10.6.4 added the boot prompt to boot.plist and its good now any word on the sound? I had it working but had to turn the mic down at every boot looking for a better solution Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/235729-64-bit-on-asus-g51jx-a1/#findComment-1574734 Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkythewondersquid Posted November 4, 2010 Author Share Posted November 4, 2010 After installing on an Asus 1201PN netbook it worked I had the same problem and deleted the RTC kext from extra/extensions and it booted into 64 bit fine the first boot was very slow but now booting normally thank you again I had to return the G51 and exchange it something was wrong with it so when I reinstall I will know what to do Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/235729-64-bit-on-asus-g51jx-a1/#findComment-1576579 Share on other sites More sharing options...

sparkythewondersquid Posted November 9, 2010 Author Share Posted November 9, 2010 Use retail install method its a little more work (these days not that much at all) is yours the one with Nvidia GTX 260M (rx05) if so it is not hard at all I think there is a version of that with ATI post your specs there are alot of very helpful people here Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/235729-64-bit-on-asus-g51jx-a1/#findComment-1579245 Share on other sites More sharing options...
