LOL to be honest I doubt ocing the CPU would affect the installation of Lion but then again if it works great my main concern is wherether still waiting for root device still appearing?
nope! :)Quote:

Great DUDE! you might wanna install it with Sound and Lan enable then what options did you use? -x -v?
I think I did install with audio & LAN enabled - seeing as disabled didn't make a difference, I figured neither could be the cause ;)Quote:

I'm off to bed :wave:
thank you soooooo much for all the help :bows:
catch ya in the morning! :)
ok multibeast is a program that allows you install the bootloder on your hdd so you wont have to boot using the disc all the time basically it install programs and kext for the hackintosh to work and you need it otherwise the sound and lan wont work.
Now we already know that you lan wont work because there arent any kext for you mobo unfortunally so we gotta concentrate on you sound and video..
how is your video? are you getting full res support and QE/QC (those are the graphic enablers I was telling you earlier if you have full res and your video is not laggy then you are alright....) any other hardware not working? I suppose you are using another pc to talk on XS so if I was you I would look for a spare PCI ethernet laying around if you havent got one you are screwed until you get a wireless dongle...
Ok forgot about the time differences in time you lan chip is RTL 8111C right? I will look for a kext for you see ya tomorrow...
Ok found the Lan use this link http://iats.googlecode.com/files/build_x64_20100425.zip and unzip it on lion then install it and restart after you get internet working let me know and will do the next steps...
also found the sound too looks like you will be up and running with everything working soon :) Night
I haven't actually tried to boot without the DVD in - good thing you told what multibeast does! :lol:Quote:

what is QE/QC?
that is correct I believe, per specs on GB website :up:Quote:

updates:
ok so I installed a few too many audio drivers.... result? GSOD! :D (kernel panic)
fix: re-install! now that I'm 'experienced' :p: ;)
I re-installed with the nv 7600GS as well :)
I read the tonymac tuts a lil more closely - I now can boot without the DVD! :party:
only thing left now is the audio - I think I have tried everything - no go :(
I have audio working! :woot:
ok, I tried to overcome the one last minor hurdle: overclocking......... doesn't seem to want to do it :( :shrug:
oh well.. stock is ok.. I only really put together the hackintosh rig for giggles :D
:up:
progress: I now have 2x 74GB Raptor in RAID0 :D :D :D
set-back: I have no sound..again.. what happened: I tried installing different drivers, then I tried the applerollback one - it worked.. but then I restarted & all I got has GSODs :(
so I formatted (again), tried installing only applerollback driver(s).. nothing :(
help!!!!!!!!! :shrug:
Ok so I just got online am happy that the Lan and Video is working I would like to remote access your PC so I could see what else i can get for you working.. Teamviever maybe?
PS multibeast has the Audio and Lan driver you should be able to install the 7600 Nvidia card and should work out of the box...
Sup dude any progress on the Hackintosh built? :)
yes! hello! sorry, working week :(Quote:

final specs:
C2Q Q8400
2x2GB kingston DDR2-800
gigabyte GA-G31M-ES2L rev.1.1
nv 7600GS
2x 74GB Raptor RAID0

thanks for all the help.. now I can lend a lil help myself - tho I still consider myself rather inexperienced :yawn:
:toast: :cool:
Great dude glad that you got it sorted out tweaking time maybe? installing Champlist maybe? :)
Alright David what install method for Lion do you suggest for this combo: GA-P67A-UD3-B3, i7-2600K, evga geforce 210 512mb?
