I recently got leopard to run on my p5n-e after many different combinations of installs. What i did was installed it using the 15gb leopard auto install that you run through windows. After this installed, i used iKatos r2 and this tutorial to install the rest of the options like the EFI 10.5.1 NForce Kernel, remove cpupowermanagment, remove thermal kexts, Netkas AppleSMBIOS, and Nvinject. After i got everything installed correctly, i used the Kalyway 10.5.2 Combo Update. http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=83092&pid=618990&mode=threaded&start=

This is where i run into my problem, my main use for Osx86 is video editing, but when i plug in my camcorder to capture footage, nothing happends. Furthermore, system profiler shows that "no firewire ports can be detected". Before my 10.5.2 update, my camcorder would appear under the system profiler but still i could not capture any video as FCP and ImovieHD could not see it. Also, for some reason, my usb ports will not mount anything unless i reboot with my ipod/card reader already plugged in. I have searched all over the forum but couldnt find a solution, i also spoke to VasH who also has a P5NE and he said the combo update fixed the problem for him.

My complete system specs are as followed

Mobo: P5NE-Sli

Video: EVGA 8600GTS 256mb

Ram: Corsair Valuselect oc to 860mhz

CPU: C2D E6550 oc to 3ghz

HD: 120gb Maxtor 6Y120P0, WD Caviar 250gb

 

Any help or info to fix this problem would be appreciated.

 

Thanks, Cody
