Lotustar Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 Hello Everyone!! Obviously I'm new here. I have been trying to use hackint0sh.org forums but no one seems to want to help each other. ugh. So, thought I would see how u guys are here.:-). I have an almost functional hackintosh running iatkos 10.5.7 on an HP Pavillion a6030n AMD 64 and I love it!! Just a few minor problems and it will be perfect. First thing is I can't use sleep or restart. Shutdown is fine. Screensaver seems to come on even though I have it set never to. I have only one option in my energy saver setting options that says "allow power button to sleep computer". And sometimes when booting It gets hung on "AppleATAnforce found 0 units". But I can restart and it will finally boot into OS. I have tried openhaltrestart kext for my sleep and restart prob and did not work. PLEASE someone help. I have looked EVERYWHERE for resolution to these few little problems. Here is a rundown of my machine: HP Pavillion a 6030n AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual-Core Processor 4800 NVIDIA nForce 430 Chipset Visiontek ATI 2400 HD pro PCIe (finally got this fully working with quartz!) Realtek integrated audio iAtkos v7 I use this machine everyday as it is but am worried one day it may not boot. Already had to add -v flag to boot list or it gets hung on apple screen at boot. Thanx in advance! Oh, if anyone needs help with the 4200 hd pro video card just let me know. I'm an expert on this now hahaha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lotustar Posted November 17, 2010 Author Share Posted November 17, 2010 Really? Nobody? 3 forums now and nobody knows. I've seen ppl respond to WAY more complicated things than this. What a great "community". Ugh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a great "community". Ugh You have to be patient in a community with so many fora.........in my experience on a nForce chipset + Intel CPU MOBO sleep does not work with 10.5.7 or 10.5.8 or 10.6.x, and if the CPU and/or RAM is OC'd, sleep stops working on 10.5.6........

Thank you for your response. I have tried to be patient but when you see like 70 to 100 views on a topic and no replies...well, seems like no one gives a sh*#. Anyway, that sux about sleep. I am about to try and go to snow leopard using the empire EFI and retail disk method. I'm hoping I can atleast get restart and that ApplenforceATA found 0 units thing to stop. It's soooo annoying. I have NO idea what causes it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
