Hello folks.

I'm looking for some help.

I installed Snow leopard os on my laptop (sony vaio vgn-fz190e)

Install was smooth and easy. I'm using dual boot mode as i have windows 7 also.

 

So, i'm looking for some help on following issues:

1) How i can make my video 8400M GT to work properly? As far as i know there is no solution yet. Still, waiting for some miracle happen.

2) Ethernet adapter Marvell yukon 8036. I found some articles on this issue, but they were kinda useless. I changed adapter ID number in ****NetworkFamili.kext, but after reboot i'v get "Shut that damn laptop by holding...." error. At this point i can boot only under safe mode. Moreover, i don't know how to make it back to the normal condition ;(

3) Intel® Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN. This one is very tough guy. Have no idea what to do.

4) Sound: SigmaTel STAC9872AK @ Intel 82801HBM ICH8M - High Definition Audio Controller PCI. It actually working on my laptop's built-in speakers, but if i plug headphones or external speakers nothing happens; no sound in headphones, but buil't in speakers screaming as hell.

 

Any ideas?

CPU Type Mobile DualCore Intel Core 2 Duo T7300, 750 MHz (11 x 68)

Good luck to you this is were the fun really starts:)

Thank you for reply)

Sound works (built in speakers), but line-out doesn't :(

Ethernet: i tried those guides,but after doing what is written there i get "turn off your computer..." window.

I'm on MBR.

Wireless is not a big deal, i can live with that :)
