zillion42 Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 Hi, I thought I already posted, but can't find my thread nowhere... anyway, as of now, I suddenly got both cores working... I changed bios settings again: BatterySaveMode -> UserSettings-> "Processing Speed: High" , "CPU sleep mode - Disabled", "LCD Brightness - Super Bright", "Cooling Method: Battery Optimized" PCI Express Link ASPM - Enabled Enhanced C-states - Enabled Dynamic CPU Frequency Mode - "Dynamically Switchable" Core Multiporcessing - Enabled Execute Disable Bit Capability - "Not Available" Vitualization Technology - Disabled Devices setup by OS - "All Devices" This is more or less default, the only thing changed is "CPU sleep mode - Disabled"... It still boots... and is stable since I start writing (&editing) this post... now its a proper 1.99 GHz Core2 Duo in "About this mac" Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/71216-toshiba-qosmio-g30-797hs-bios-settings/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
zillion42 Posted November 13, 2007 Author Share Posted November 13, 2007 wow?, I'm completely baffled now... I changed all back to defaults in my Bios, except the "all Devices" thing... Still boots... Before (& during installation) I always had a kernel panic with dump, something about CPU trap when core multiprocessing was enabled... Now it boots as if nothing ever happend... Also last year I tried the jas 10.4.8 and it would never have booted with these settings. hmm, the only thing I changed since last year is my Bios... Its ver 3.5 now, was 1.6 then...It's like this now: BatterySaveMode - "Full Power" PCI Express Link ASPM - Auto Enhanced C-states - Enabled Dynamic CPU Frequency Mode - "Dynamically Switchable" Core Multiporcessing - Enabled Execute Disable Bit Capability - "Not Available" Vitualization Technology - Disabled Devices setup by OS - "All Devices" Means I dont have to change my bios settings anymore when booting windows or ubuntu... that's really good...

zillion42 Posted May 26, 2008 Author Share Posted May 26, 2008 I tried installing 10.5.2 but I can't get the audio work with the taruga patcher under 10.5.2... anyway... Bios Version is 3.60. Currently I'm trying to reinstall 10.4.9 with the Uphuck 10.4.9 R.III DVD, but it seems it's to scratched and old... My Audio I just checked again is actually even different to the STAC9200-j.txt which reads: Vendor Id: 0x83847690 Subsystem Id: 0x11790462 Windows Device Manager reads: Vendor Id: 0x83847 Subsystem Id: 0x11790472 I will try that on this install... During install there will be kernel panick if you don't disable CoreMultiprocessing in Bios, later I will switch it on again. Didn't have to change anything in the bios for the 10.5.2 installation BTW...

peach-os Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 Installed kalyway 10.5.2 on my toshiba qosmio f45-411. I had to patch a few things. the biggest problem was the audio. checking the id of the audio device several ways gave me different results. so I tried alc268,883 and more. nothing worked. then I checked the hardware with a tool on hiren´s boot cd, and it gave me alc 888! patched it and since that It works perfect!
