Hatorade Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 Has anyone had success installing on this board? I cannot get any ISO to install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiggum Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 I also have this board, and have had no luck so far. With the "tubgirl" release I have been able to install onto an IDE HDD, but upon booting to this drive am just presented with a blinking cursor. Any chance there is a fix for this, now or in the works? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisAshtear Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 I've gotten my p5n-e sli to work alright. The only problem is i have no sound, no ethernet, and my video card is only running in vesa. ;/ sound: Realtek ALC883 ( and soundblaster x-fi ) network: Marvell 88E1116 video: geforce 8800 I used the VMware trick with a spare IDE hard drive. hmm, i just looked up the sound/network chips. i might be able to get those working >.> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jporter Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 I know a friend of mine has got everything to work on this board, it is unstable though. Multitasking just kills the os almost. LOTS of disk activity in the beginning to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Envying Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 Just found a FreeBSD patch for this network card. http://www.se.hiroshima-u.ac.jp/~shigeaki/...reebsd-nfe.html Don't know if it will be working under OSX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Envying Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 Just check the hardware setting in Winxp, it shows a nForce Network device. It's very confusing. On mobo manual, it shows Marvell 88E1116 PHY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaithis Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 video: geforce 8800 I believe at this point in time, cards with > 256MB RAM are not supported by Titan, which is what got my 7800GT working flawlessly. My 8800GTX box is still awaiting support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoyo1234 Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 sorry guys, im a nub. I have a question? What do you mean by "vmware trick"? Can you use vmware to install mac os x86 natively? If so how? I tried the jas 10.4.8 iso and it doesnt work at all.. says its ide device is blocking bus, and still waiting for root device? I dont know what im doing... What iso did you guys use?

Superhero360 Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 I have the same board and installed Mac OSX 10.4.8 on it. I am looking for the Network driver for the Ethernet chipset. Would be cool if anyone has a solution for it: 88E1116 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coneroe Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 I have this board also and got everything works except for audio(Don't know if there's a patch) firewire and my 8800GTS. Internet work without patch just need alittle configuration. For network I configure manualy, like enter the IP Address, router address, Submask, DNS Server...All those information can find on your Windows Network Properties.

Hey Coneroe, can you tell me in more details how you got your network to work? What drivers did you use? My network chipset is a Marvell 88E111.

After that, I have to edit the Subnet mask, DNS Host, IP Address, and Router address. Hey dude, I tried your AlC883 and failed 2 time and I just notice I have to select 3port_digital to make it work. Well anyway does it work on 10.4.7? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueFalcon7 Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 Woah, woah woah, slow down, I have an ASUS P5N-E SLI nForce 650i, and all I can get to work is the deadmoo image. I can run Jas 10.4.8 natively and it finds the IDE OK. Any of you who got it working, what ISO did you use (I know where to get them, just the name, and patches) I get the whole kernel stack fault business. At this point, all I want is a GUI, and a full drive partition. Oh, and I have a 7900 GS if that might be a problem. any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDH Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 Hey Folks... I have the Asus p5n-e SLI with the JaS 10.4.8 AMD/Intel ppf1 ppf2 installed and running beautifully (must use x11 and AMD install only on the "custom settings" for some reason). My Hardware: Intel e6400 @ 2.4 GHz 2 GB el cheapo ram @ 800MHz Seagate Sata drive (not detected) a couple of IDE drives (where my Mac OS is) eVGA 7600 GS running as a result of patching with natit_dual v0.02 Audio running as a result of patching with ALC883Audio.mpkg USB and Firewire detected NO ETHERNET dammit. Can anyone help please? K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khid Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 Nice. But the Gigabit Ethernet is very very important! However it's good to hear that you got the SLI board working. What else is not working aside from that? Random: My initials are KDH as well. O_o; W0rd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDH Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 Well... I cheated. I got a $5 Lan card from Fry's and now it works. It is the Airlink ASOHORL (No I didnt make that name up.) It isnt gigabit, but I didnt want to invest a whole lot just to try something out. Gigabit cards on the HCL can be had for about $20. K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
