Sorry if I'm being off-topic! Beniboy, did you already try if mac worked with both cores AFTER updating with that BIOS? Because, as this version is relatively new it may work. If you didn't, try it. About the other OS(es) you have in your computer there will be no problem.

 

funny thing is that with iatkos v1.0 both cores worked...but with kalways 10.5.2 only one works?..hmmmm...

Hi, I have never had a laptop till now and would love to stick Leopard on it. I can't seem to boot into the install setup, I have tried almost every distro (including old 10.4.8) and none of them allow me to boot into the setup, it freezes. I have tried multiple boot flags and bios settings. I think my bios may be the problem. Please patch the bios file please: http://dlsvr04.asus.com/pub/ASUS/nb/F8Sn/F8SNG304AS.zip.

 

Model: Asus F8Sg

CPU: Intel T5750 2.0GHz

Chipset: Intel PM965 Express Chipset +ICH8M

Gfx: NVIDIA GeForce 9300M G 256MB

 

Thanks ;)

Hello all. I've just finished reading all 40 pages of this topic hoping to find a modified bios for my Toshiba Satellite M115-S3144. Unfortunately none have been created yet, so I ask for your help. I have the Kalyway 10.5.2 installed (updated to 10.5.4) but I can only load Leopard with a single core (other core disabled through bios). Loading with both cores enabled causes an immediate reboot 1 second after the grey screen/apple logo appears.

 

Here are my specs:

Processor

Intel Core 2 Duo T5200 / 1.6 GHz

Multi-Core processor technology: Dual-Core

64-bit processor: Yes

Data bus speed: 533 MHz

Chipset type: Mobile Intel 945GM Express

 

Cache Memory

Type:L2 cache

Cache size: 2 MB

 

RAM

Installed Size:2 GB

Technology: DDR II SDRAM - 533 MHz

Memory specification compliance: PC2-4200

 

Video

Graphics Card: Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950

 

 

A link to my BIOS:

Here is the .exe package provided from Toshiba

 

 

Thank you to the community for all the help you provide. This forum alone has gotten me to a complete working Leopard installation aside from the dual core issue.

 

 

UPDATE: I resolved my dual core issue by booting up with the kabylkernel which was installed with kalyway. That magic thing works like a beauty. No need for a bios mod now.

Hi kabyl,

 

Any chance you could have a look at my MSI P35 Diamond please?

I would love to get all four cores working on my Q6600! :-)

 

I believe the P35 Diamond is similar to the MSI P35 Neo F

 

My Spec:

MSI P35 Diamond Motherboard

Intel Q6600 2.4Ghz CPU

2 x 1GB OCZ DDR3 Mem

Radeon 2600 Pro Graphics

 

MS-7356 P35 Diamond Version 2.4

 

I hope you can help me out?

 

 

Thanks,

Dom

 

 

 

UPDATE:

 

Arrrh just noticed that this is for Laptops only, doh! Any idea how I can get my Hackintosh to detect all four cores?

Hi!

I am not talking in English.

I saw that you can help correct BIOS.

Here's my data:

Notebook DELL VOSTRO 1400

* a direct link to the BIOS file,

http://ftp.us.dell.com/bios/1400_A09.EXE

* your PC specs (CPU, Chipset and Graphics Card),

Intel Celerom M540 1.86Ghz

Chipset Intel GM965

Graphic Card GMA x3100 mobile Intel 965 Express Chipset Family

* and a description of the issues.

In the summit early installation of MacOS (any build) this error occurs:

 

-----

MAC Framework successfully initialized

using 5242 buffer headers and 4096 cluster IO buffer headers

IOAPIC: Version 0x20 Vectors 0:23

Extensions "com.apple.driver.ACPI_SMC_PlatformPlugin" has immediate

dependencies on both com.apple.kernel and com.apple.kpi components;

use only one style.

-----

 

And installs stop...

 

Thank you!

да хоть по японски - тут всё равно походу пофигу на все просьбы...

не ясно зачем вообще тогда писать о том, чтобы сюда скидывали свои биосы и их типа поправят.

сказал бы Kabyl тогда просто как это сделать проще и никто не сидел бы тут в ожидании чуда!

Hy Kabyl, I have installed a iDeneb 10.5.4 with Vanilla 9.4 retail kernel (i'm a little bit affraid to put the last 10.5.5 patch :)). I have a ASUS P5KC mobo with ICH9 chipset and HDA ALC883, Intel C2D E6750, and nVidia 8600 GTS 256MB. Preety cool staff, aren't them? :) But the os is running on just one core, and it show that is running on the first core :P so maybe u can help me by moding a little bit my bios, that is the last from ASUS official download site.

THX in advance, and regards from Romania, EU :blink:
