Hi all. I'll try to explain my problem in full as much as I can as to avoid any confusion. I ran 10.4.8 in the past on my old hardware, but now I made the jump to a newer box and trying to run Leopard with not a lot of success. So I'll just go through my install process and a list of my hardware/issues.

 

I installed the ToH 10.5.1 dvd (pretty sure not RC2) with a successful boot into Leopard. I'm having trouble finding and installing kexts for my ethernet, sound, and video. If you could point me in the right direction or just let me know if my hardware isn't supported I'll just forget trying to run Leo and stay with my xp64 and vista.

 

AMD Athlon X2 5200+

Asus M2V mobo w/ VIA K8T890 and VIA VT8237A chipset

2 Gb DDR2 800 ram

Sound:Realtek ACL 660

Ethernet: Attansic L1 PCI-E Gb

Video: Asus EN8500Gt 256mb PCI-express

 

Another thing, I tried installing NVinject 0.2.0 and upon reboot I can't get the main screen to come back (just hangs on text). How do I uninstall that by using Terminal from the DVD? Or am I going to have to just wipe it and reinstall again?

yeah the lan sounds like a pci card I know, but that's what it says on the Asus box. You can google it if you like. Which kexts should work for my sound because i tried an updated AppleAC97 kext and the Azalia one but after kextloading them my sound still doesn't show up in sys pref.
