Administrators Bronxteck Posted August 29, 2012 Administrators Share Posted August 29, 2012 edp will replace the files again with it's internal file... the graphics naming is cosmetic. if you wish you can just replace the dsdt but if you redo the model config it will again replace it. whats the difference between the dsdt's ?

JDubU Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 I reckon you should delete you whole extra folder, and replace it with the one I supplied with this tutorial, because we know that works. Then re install edp and see how it goes. A reflow just heats up the solder balls, and joins the cracked connections. A reball involves completely removing the BGA chip and replacing all the little solder balls with new ones, and then putting it back on the board. It requires alot of skill, and expensive equipment that most dont have. Seb Replacing the Extra folder with the one you supplied, followed by an EDP reinstall, did not restore the video chip identification back to NVS 135M. It looks like the current version of EDP(4.2.1)installs its own DSDT which changes the video chip ID to "Nvidia GeForce 8400M GS". I don't know if it actually makes any functional change to the video driver - it could be just an erroneous model ID name change. I went ahead and replaced that EDP installed DSDT with the one in your download, did a MyFix/reboot and now System Information properly shows "Nvidia NVS 135M". Have not noticed a change in functionality of anything else (yet). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doing just a quick visual compare between the two DSDT's using DSDTSE, you are right, it looks like just the graphics naming is different. All other AGP entries look the same. There is also an obvious difference in the Sound HDEF area. SEB's DSDT includes details for the SigmaTel STAC9205 audio chip with reference to "Voodoo HDA Device". The EDP DSDT's Sound HDEF area looks more generic. The codec parameters in the two DSDT's are not the same. There may be other differences. Is there a better tool than DSDTSE to more easily compare two DSDT files? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Bronxteck Posted August 29, 2012 Administrators Share Posted August 29, 2012 if both are in .dsl format they can be compared with a text editor of some sort but i think that app has a compare feture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seb43654 Posted August 29, 2012 Author Share Posted August 29, 2012 Hi, I think I may have found out why it showed up as a 8400. I was using edp version 424, and the dsdt file is different from the latest version of edp. Thats why when you used my older dsdt, it showed up correctly.

ratafak Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Hello, which one Extra folder is recommended use for instalation? - Extra from 1'st page this thread or - Extra bootpack from main page E.D.P/Bootpacks Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iMick Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 If someone could contact me at [email protected], we will have a look at the differences. Let's merge the best things in EDP . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seb43654 Posted August 30, 2012 Author Share Posted August 30, 2012 Hello, which one Extra folder is recommended use for instalation? - Extra from 1'st page this thread or - Extra bootpack from main page E.D.P/Bootpacks Thanks. The bootpack that I have included is very similar to the one provided. It does have an older ACPI kext from snow leopard though that seemes to fix it from halting at ACPI system state. I wll have a look later on, and email the updated one so it can be put into the edp. Seb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GSK Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 So this is my first post. I have successfully installed Lion 10.7.4 and now Mountain Lion 10.8.1. The one thing that is and has been a problem is the audio. Always after a reboot I need to go into Midi Audio setting and change the Mic and Speakers back to 44100.0 Hz and 2ch-16bit. They always reset to 192000 and 2ch-24bit which causes crackling in the sound. Anyone have a step by step to fix this problem? Is there a way to make the changed setting stick? Thanks, Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Five Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 I followed this guide on my D630 NVidia, and it went pretty smoothly; thanks for all the hard work. I only have 2 questions, though: is it possible to get the digital outputs working on the D-Port/D-Dock (S/PDIF & IEC958), and has anyone else gotten FireWire audio devices working? AppleFWAudio.kext gives me a link error when I try to load it, so I can't use my Focusrite Saffire. I was able to successfully run the 10.8.1 updater, too, though it gave me an update failed message.
