nick.XIII Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Hi all, been interested in installing OSX on one of my machines for awhile now and just decided to take the leap. I started by using the D620SLVI boot disc linked on another site and installed from a 10.6 disc. This all went fine, everything worked perfectly, except the computer would not boot without the disc to act as the bootloader. So I did some searching and came across this site, and proceeded to follow the instructions word-for-word. Everything has gone great, installed from the myHack usb and even updated to 10.6.8 with no issues. All is well in the world, except all is silent as well. Where I had sound installing from the unmodified disc, installing the way I'm told here causes my audio card to be unrecognized. Now I'm a noob, so please bear with me when trying to help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Bronxteck Posted June 11, 2013 Administrators Share Posted June 11, 2013 you have to now install edp and configure it to your laptop. the bootpacks do not have audio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick.XIII Posted June 11, 2013 Author Share Posted June 11, 2013 I had done that already, apparently the changes hadn't taken effect or something. However, once I installed voodooHDA, my audio started working fine Thank you all for this awesome site and the helpful utilities! Also, thank you Bronxteck for your quick reply Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nick.XIII Posted June 12, 2013 Author Share Posted June 12, 2013 Alright, so I used the myHack usb to do a repair install, went without a hitch but sound still didn't work, but after I installed the 10.6.8 update, everything worked! Still haven't tried to see if sleep is functioning like it should, but so far everything seems to be in order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick.XIII Posted June 12, 2013 Author Share Posted June 12, 2013 Any ideas on how to get my battery to work? It runs on battery with no issue, except it reads 0% charge all the time and when I try to display battery info on the status bar, it won't do anything.
