mcolinp Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 I am looking to download your files as well. I just purchased this board as a replacement for an older Gigabyte build (GA-Z77X-UP7) that went on the fritz. Since I have never built anything with this board; your guide seemed to be the best place to start . . .

k3nny Posted March 29, 2015 Author Share Posted March 29, 2015 @mcolinp: Don't let the missing files scare you. Read the guide, see the links for more information and you should be fine. The board will even boot without any DSDT hocus-pocus. 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/285697-asus-p8z77-v-lk/page/5/#findComment-2124043 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcolinp Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Thanks, I will give it a shot. Though I have to do comeplete backups of all the data from my three OS Drives; before I take the plunge . . .

mcolinp Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Got it booting fine; but still having issues with sound. I tried the Toleda Piker Alpha method as well . . . no-go . . .

k3nny Posted April 2, 2015 Author Share Posted April 2, 2015 What exactly did you try and what were the results? I can't help you without any details. Basically you need to make sure that the "layout-id" property is present in your registry (use IORegistryExplorer) and set to the value of 1. In addition you need to have a patched AppleHDA.kext, which I believe is done by one of toleda's scripts. I find his tutorials a bit confusing, but once you find what you need, it should work. See https://github.com/toleda/audio_RealtekALC and scroll down to item "C. Installation".

mcolinp Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Sorry for not giving more details . . . When I tried the method you are referring to; I would try and run the script, which would fail with this message: "S/L/E/AppleHDA.kext is not native Install native AppleHDA.kext No system files were changed To save a Copy to this Terminal session: Terminal/Shell/Export Text As ... logout [Process completed]" I believe it is because the registry is missing the "layout-id" you described. I opened my registry with IORegistryExplorer; and I tried to search for: "layout-id", which returned no results. I am not sure where to properly insert it. I did have mild success with VoodooHDA; but the sound quality is terrible. It has a constant HISS in the background . . . Thanks for your help! -EDIT- I reinstalled the original AppleHDA.kext from a backup. Then I ran the script again. It returned this: "No audio codec detected To save a Copy to this Terminal session: Terminal/Shell/Export Text As ... logout [Process completed]" Which points to the missing registry entry you mentioned . . . .

k3nny Posted April 2, 2015 Author Share Posted April 2, 2015 "S/L/E/AppleHDA.kext is not native" means you already have a modified AppleHDA installed at /System/Library/Extensions/AppleHDA.kext. Replace it with the original one from your installation image first. Afterwards try running the script again. It should work this time. Make sure you delete all files from VoodooHDA, otherwise they will cause problems. I would recommend you to use the AppleHDA method, it usually works fine. For injecting the layout-id, see http://clover-wiki.zetam.org/Configuration/Devices#Audio-/-Inject.

mcolinp Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 So I did reinstall a backup copy of a vanilla AppleHDA.kext. I had not yet wiped out the VooDooHDA.kext; but did after reading your response. I looked at the link you gave for injecting the audio property string; and I am still unsure where this should be inserted. Can this be entered into the config.plist? At this point I do not have a DSDT file . . . I tried to use the Patches developed by PJALM; and I got two errors when compiling. I have left a message on his board to try and sort that out. If you could give me just a little more detail on where/how-to add the Audio Property I would really appreciate it. Thanks for your help. After looking further at my "config.plist" I discovered this is already there: </dict> <key>Devices</key> <dict> <key>Audio</key> <dict> <key>Inject</key> <string>Detect</string> -Which is confusing; considering that the IORegistry does not have what it needs . . .

k3nny Posted April 2, 2015 Author Share Posted April 2, 2015 Yes, most parts of the wiki explain the different config.plist settings and their effects. Replace <string>Detect</string> with <string>1</string> and reboot. Afterwards check the registry again, if you have no sound. A modified DSDT file is not really mandatory for this board. Maybe put this topic aside for now. In a week I will re-upload the attachments and you will save yourself some time.

todesto Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 I have system running without DSDT currently and have sound working fine. I used vanilla AppleHDA and used Toleda's patch (clover method). I installed clover in my EFI partition, have audio ID as 1, check AppleHDA, HDMI in config.plist, run patch, reboot, I have sound working including HDMI. 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/285697-asus-p8z77-v-lk/page/5/#findComment-2124928 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcolinp Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Thanks guys. I did get sound working; Only after I did a fresh install again; then ran the script you pointed me to here: https://github.com/t...udio_RealtekALC There must have been some residual junk floating around in S/L/E that I was unaware of. Thanks again. 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/285697-asus-p8z77-v-lk/page/5/#findComment-2124970 Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcolinp Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 My back panel USB Ports have suddenly stopped working with USB 2.0 devices; (The Lower Ports). This was not a problem for me up till now; any suggestions?I did have the Zenith GenericUSB kext installed . . .

k3nny Posted July 21, 2015 Author Share Posted July 21, 2015 Hi mcolinp, did you change/update anything? If I remember correctly, the two lowest USB ports near the ethernet port were the Intel ones and above them are the ASMedia USB ports. Either way, you should make sure that Zenith's kext is installed and running.
