TorqueX86 Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 Hello everyone I noticed something very strange on my hackintosh. Basically, after a bit of researching and fiddling now everything works, save a very few minor glitches such as the speed not being reported correctly in About My Mac. My hardware is the following: Asrock Conroe 945G-DVI bios 1.3 Core 2 Duo 1.8 512MB ram (soon ro be upgraded) SATA2 HD ATI Radeon x1800GTO @ XT, Neopheus Natit installer, works perfectly and totally. So what happens? When I run World of Warcraft, it is slightly speeded up than normal. My character runs, casts and fights faster than everyone else. If I overclock my system, this "problem" gets even worse. This kind of compromises the gameplay, and I have no clue of why this happens. Normally overclock still keeps the game speed at nominal level. Well, not in this case, and even at normal processor speed, the game is very slightly speeded up. I apologise in advance if I explained the problem in a very bad way, but I guess this happens for some system glitch that should be fixed. Please advise.

Guest bikedude880 Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 What kernel are you running? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/34103-my-hackintosh-and-world-of-warcraft/#findComment-241494 Share on other sites More sharing options...
errandwolfe Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 Let me expand on that....if you are running one of the new 10.4.8 kernels it sounds like you do not have you FSB set correctly. Does your system clock also run fast? Do you have odd glitches in your audio? If this is the case I would recommend one of the newer versions of the 10.4.8 kernel that have improved FSB auto detection. Personally I use the DaemonES kernel and it works great.

slave-zeo Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 Mine did the same thing. I was worried about getting banned form WoW for 'cheating" The fsb='"266" on mine fixed it.

TorqueX86 Posted November 25, 2006 Author Share Posted November 25, 2006 Thanks everyone. I solved it by updating the kernel with th very smart Online Updater found here: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=33039 Absolutely awesome. Now the system speed is also correctly displayed. Only RAM now is seen as 0 MHZ SDRAM... Would love to see it displayed correctly one day. And YES! Thats the only minor glitch left now on my machine. I will make an image of this installation, it works just too well. Next step: Modding a G5 case, on its way to me, will keep you guys posted. And keep on with the great job, it's very funny also for non-experts such as myself!
