Sounds / PC freezes periodically

[lform]

Hi,

 

I have used the last couple of days to get my first Hackintosh up running :-)

 

I am fed up with Windows and have already purchased two Macs from before, so its VERY nice having Mac on the PC.

 

Though i.e. when I listen to radio the sound kind of clips periodically. It seems like the whole the sound kind of stops up in half a sec or something, and then continues, catching up with the stream in the radio station or MP3-file.

 

I have used this KEXT http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php...rt=#entry976996 for the ALC662 codec from Realtek.

 

This is the first day I am up running with this new Mac, and I would love to get this up running 100%.

 

It might also be something else with my installation and hardware, MS-7525-motherboard (this is the computer ==> http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/documen...roduct=3988162), so excellent if you want to help me out with this.

Sometimes skipping sound happens when there's a hardware conflict. It's not necessarily related to the sound driver or the sound device itself.

 

You can try removing IRQs from devices in your DSDT like this:

Hi man!

 

it turned out it was only the stream from the Norwegian Broadcasting company that was crappy... listening to another webradio now plays off PERFECTLY. so no problem... ;D

 

I will post a new thread with my other problems.

Of course, why didn't I think of that. If it's not an IRQ, it's the NRK!

hehe ;-) it was...!!

 

thanks anyways... working on this still. needing the driver to get my mic and other inputs to work on this...

 

any tips on the best driver....? *googling it as we speak*

No, sorry no idea about the sound.

 

Unless there's a specific, community provided driver out there for your hardware, these days there are two solutions - either use VoodooHDA, or patch AppleHDA to work with your hardware + use some sort of injection method either in DSDT (or HDAEnabler.kext).

 

That's as specific as I can be, I don't have any first hand experience with your sound hardware.

Hi,

 

OK.

 

I need this card ALC662 to work with 10.6.5 now. Upgrading Snow as we speak...
