megavolkan Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 Hi people, i'm about to buy a new mobo, if anyone uses one of those boards (Asus P5Q, Asus P5Q Pro and MSI P45 Platinum) i need your advice. If one of those works successfully (sata, audio and network fully working) for you please return me an answer. How did you managed to get it workin', which distro, modded/unmodded bios, kext file needed etc. I have searched the forum thoroughly, but i couldn't find an exact answer to this. At least redirect me if there is one. Thanks for your interest Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/128531-asus-p5q-p5q-pro-or-msi-p45-platinum/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gujal Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 All three motherboards that you have listed have BIOS related issues with OSX. kabyl has patched some BIOSes to work but I think you would be better off with Gigabyte rather than rely on 3rd party BIOS modifications Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/128531-asus-p5q-p5q-pro-or-msi-p45-platinum/#findComment-911441 Share on other sites More sharing options...
