External drives won't mount and blue screen lag

[smeared]

So, my hackintosh has been running great for a long time now, and I still love it. But recently it started acting up.. the number one issue is that when booting, it stops at the blue screen where it waits for up to 2-3 minutes, and then the login screen appears and everything functions as normally. Nothing changed to cause this delay.

 

Then I noticed that when I plug in USB, Firewire, or firewire 800 drives, they don't show up anywhere, disk utility, finder, etc. a reboot SOMETIMES fixes it but rarely. so It's been a huge problem.

 

So I recently upgraded to 10.6.7 to see if this would fix any problems. It did not, and I lost my audio. I'll figure out the audio I'm sure, but these pther problems are weird.. and i think the blue screen lag might be related because the hd stops reading when it should be.. and with hds not showing up.... seems like that's the issue to me...

 

I'm running an asus p6x58d motherboard. have a dsdt I got off of here somewhere.. my kexts are as follows:

 

appleyukoninjector

evOreboot

fakesmc

HDAEnabler

IOAHCLBlockStorage

IONetworkingFamily

LegacyAppleRTC

LegacyHDA

NullCPUPowerManagement

PlatformUUID

SleepEneabler

 

 

help would be greatly appreciated.
