Successful Retail Snow Leopard AMD

[TheDub]

Hello,

 

I have been running OS X for years now and finally made the upgrade to Snow Leopard. I used ModUSB and Retail as well which so far runs a heck of a lot better then the Leopard distro I was using. Retail is always better I guess.

 

I have a few questions though, now that the system is up and running. 64bit is working correctly with all the proper INSN patches and what not however...

 

1.)System doesn't sleep. With SleepEnabler.kext, the one included with Nawcom's 10.8.0 Legacy Kernel, the system will go to sleep - however when I wake it up I get the black screen of death and no system activity.

 

2.)VoodooHDA Sounds terrible unless I check Use SSE2 and Enhance Audio - it doesn't seem to remember these setting changes though, is there a way to set them permanently?

 

3.)Is hardware virtualization possible? I searched and found a few fixes that are aimed at VMWare but I still get crashes or in Virtualbox I receive (VERR_MAP_FAILED) if Hardware Virtualization is enabled.

 

4.)Very minor but may as well mention it. The system doesn't reboot either, it will go all the way to a halt with a black screen but never actually fully reboots. Shutdown works fine however. Tried EVOReboot and OpenHaltRestart and neither had any effect.

 

None of these are deal breakers of course but they are the only 4 issues my box seems to be having. I would love to fix them if it's possible!

 

My board is the GA-MA770-S3 with the SB600 chipset.

 

I appreciate any suggestions you AMD guys might have and would appreciate any ideas. Believe me, I have been Googling the {censored} out of these problems and wouldn't ask for your time and assistance without trying everything else first. Just a little disclaimer as I'm sure the first thing some think before not responding is just google it haha.

 

Thanks guys!
