O.K guys i did manage to save my rom version 5.23 for IPILB-LB that works with JAS 10.5.4 client Mac OSX86.

 

for people who have version 5.06 like igotjshoe, please follow the link below ( or the picture below much easier to follow) to tell you how to turn your vista 64 if you have into real administrator control so you will be able to use the Amiflash to save your bios without any USB drive or floppy drive as I just did now.

 

The link for Admistrator control: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vis...-windows-vista/

The link for AMIFLASH : http://www.ami.com/support/downloadagreeme...amp;InpDrvID=90

The link to my working 5.23 version for IPILB-LB only NOT LA in the end (There is difference): http://rapidshare.com/files/140890814/523.rom.html

 

SO igotjshoe, if you please do your part and help the people like we do :)

 

Enjoy

I was wondering weather Leopard can run on a quad core q6600 processor. I have seen many people run Leopard on Core 2 Duo but have not seen anyone run it on Quad core. If i can do i need any sort of patch??

 

Thanks

See my signature, all cores work.

I'm getting all four cores, but no internet. Audio says its working, but frankly I use 3rd party hardware audio addons so not that concerned to check the outputs [never owned a computer that didnt have ANY speaker built in before] but my 828 is working like a champ [mk1 as well] so if I can sort out this ralink network adapter or just get a replacement and be done. Are you guys getting anything out of the tv cards and stuff? My cardreader worked [which they don't often] so thats great, and I added 4 gigs of ram to it, and an extra internal sata drive 500 g.

if you have any internet kext suggestions based on my hardware, feel free to wing em my way too.

All the people who say their Q6600 is fully working with all 4 cores seem to have non-Nforce mobo. I have Q6600 with Nforce mobo and I have to specify CPUS=1 to have stable system. Otherwise I would either have kernel panic or unstable system.

Any one had success with nforce mobo ?? If so, which osx86 version and what installation options ?

what're you guys using for wifi/wired etc access on these HP computers? I've tried a belkin PCI card [didnt' work] and a rosewill Ethernet PCI [didn't work] today I am gonna pick up a cheap dynex 10/100 at best buy, but that seems like the worst answer.

comments?
