noodleboy Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 Hey there urgonah8me, Do you have 10.5.1 installed? If so, you should try to install/upgrade to 10.5.2 and upgrade the kernel to 9.2. Search the forums here for more info and links to the updates. I had the same problem with my 10.5.1 Kalyway install on my P5n32sli-se-deluxe (for a while I just set my boot flag to cpus=1 to auto boot with one core). I upgraded the kernel and I am now using both cores. Also, what do you mean by not being able to use your usb ports? Do you mean at all, or usb 2.0 speeds? Good luck! Noodleboy.

noodleboy Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 Hey urgonah8me, Have you tried disabling Legacy USB support in your BIOS? I had to do that to get any USB 2.0 or high powered usb device to work. Just remember that you won't be able to set boot flags at the Darwin bootloader with a usb keyboard (unless you're using a PS2 keyboard, in which case, you'll be okay). Might be worth a shot.
