Hello everyone! I have been trying to install ML on this laptop. Does anyone know how to run it on this particular laptop and how to get the ATI 5650m gpu working? Thank you for the assistance.

I was able to get the hdmi output on the 5650m working, but the LVDS internal display is always black. When I was on Lion, it worked out of the box (iATKOS L2 aty_init also used). I am using the latest version of myHack, as well as an edited DSDT and a proper EDID.

Have you been able to run the installation for ML?

I also have a 5650m and tried to run the installation but it hangs up with "PCI Configuration Begin"

Did you use special boot-flags?
