ASROCK h55m-le

Recommended Posts

I am trying to install on this board, and it is in the HCL:

 

http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/index.ph...L_10.6.3#Asrock

 

I am using [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] to load the iATKOS install disk, I select the patches used, it goes through install, but then the computer never makes it to the OSX welcome video.

 

Can anyone offer any pointers? Thanks.

I was able to install using [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] + retail 10.6. I am only able to boot into safe mode though. If I try to boot in normal mode I get GSOD. I am going to run [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] and hope that helps.

 

How can I find out why it is giving GSOD?

 

EDIT:

 

booting with -v off of the [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] CD results in the following:

 

ACPI_SMC_PlatformPlugin: :start - waitForService(resourceMatching(AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement) timed out

 

 

I have included a picture as well.

 

So does anyone know what the problem is? I can still boot with -x and safe mode will work, but I would like to get this figured out.

 

Thanks.

Well, I have been working on this all day, and have been able to get an almost fully functional system with 10.6.5.

 

i5 760

4GB RAM

1TB hard drive

GTX460 768MB QE/CI working

Network -working

 

Sound is not currently working. But seems like everything else is fine. Getting over 6k in geekbench right now, which I think should be about right.

 

I just like that this dirt cheap 1156 motherboard ($62) is working so well so far.

 

EDIT:

I just installed a kext through [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] to see if it fixed restart (seems like shutdown is fine, but restart goes to a black screen and I have to manually restart) - but then I am getting GSOD. Safe boot works, so I am going to remove it and see if that works.

 

EDIT:

Removing the kext made it work again. So Shut down works fine, restart only partially works, and sleep does not work at all. Not a huge deal. Really I just want sound to work now and I'll call it a day.

 

EDIT:

Got sound working with VooDooHDA 0.2.61. Installed through [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url].

 

Very happy.

It seems this is a perfect mobo for SL. The audio function is the most important as I'm planning to build one for my friend. It's a cheap motherboard, with i3-540 or i3-550 & GTS 450 (spared the i5 for a better GPU, IMHO).

 

I think of it as a nice value gaming build with a Mac SL in it. What do you think?

What, why does everyone say the ASRock H55M-LE is bad and you should get a Gigabyte board if it works good?

 

Does anyone of you have issues with the ASRock H55M-LE or is it a working board?

 

Thanks

 

I've got 10.6.8 running perfectly here, on that board.

Since my last post Lion is running fine here aswell.
