Hello again guys,

 

I am a bit of a noob when it comes to Macs so I hope you can help me.

 

I updated using the Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.6 combo update and ran [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] after it installed. I don't use sleepenabler.kext so there was nothing there that I had to delete. I rebooted the computer and...KERNEL PANIC!

 

I have posted a picture below of the message.

 

I am most grateful for your help, so thank you in advance.

Install IOACPIFamilty.kext

Since I can't boot up into the Snow Leopard Partition of the drive, can I do that through MacDrive on Windows 7 (In other words, my question is if it is just a drag and drop process to install the kext or is it something more?)?

 

Thank you for the reply.

Thank you for the reply.

Yep, you can do that. This is how I do it. Simply download the needed kext, copy it, go to the Extensions folder and paste it there.

The problem is in that Elliott LegacyRTC kext you are using.. The best solution would be to remove it and patch the DSDT (remove the IRQ's from the RTC0 device section,google it a bit).There are also some auto patchers that will do the job for you ;)

Okay. I deleted the Elliott LegacyRTC Kext. Now as far as patching the DSDT goes, I don't understand what you mean at all when you say, "remove the IRQ's from the RTC0 device section". If you could please just outline a few of the steps I would need to go through/explain it a little bit clearer, I will be able to google it.

 

Thank you very much for your help.

 

Would something like this work?: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php...howtopic=235523

 

apply "generic" patch

 

cmos reset

 

RTC(cmos reset)

IRQS(HPET, IPIC, TIMR, RTC)

 

or

Okay, so let me see if I did this right.

 

I opened the auto patcher, pointed it to the dsdt.aml, selected generic, and applied it. Now I just reset the cmos, overwrite the original dsdt.aml (I made a copy), and I should be good, right?

Ignore that earlier post by me. I just tried what I thought was right and it worked!

 

Thank you so much for your help guys.

Could someone be please be so kind and check my dsdt. My system was rock solid untill 10.6.4/5 after updating to 10.6.6 I get random KPs. I cannot find the problem.

My dsdt supports speedstepping, sound, wake from sleep via usb and I pretty happy and I would like to keep these features. Do I have to change something?

 

thanks in advance!

 

here my dsdt:

DSDT.aml.zip
