HertzPL Posted March 8, 2014 Author Share Posted March 8, 2014 The thing is that there is no driver for that chipset(or at least i wasn't able to find one). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HertzPL Posted March 8, 2014 Author Share Posted March 8, 2014 Wifi problem has been solved. There's still that weird thing about the audio distortion. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
npjohnson Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Audio distortion? I hadn't heard about that yet. Can you describe in more detail? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HertzPL Posted March 8, 2014 Author Share Posted March 8, 2014 After i go above certain level of volume i get massive squeal and hum in the background. Listening to songs is impossible as bass is cracking and the sound is unnatural. I'm not entirely sure but it actually may be caused by microphone that for some reason is constantly turned on. What i mean by that is that when i speak with my mouth close to mic i can hear my voice coming out from the speakers 0.o. Btw. I realised that "this mac" shows that my cpu is 1,2Ghz insead of 2.4 ( i guess)... How do I know that Power Management is working? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HertzPL Posted March 8, 2014 Author Share Posted March 8, 2014 I'm using AppleHDADisabler.kext and VoodooHDA.kext What about the lowered CPU frequency? is it related to PM? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HertzPL Posted March 8, 2014 Author Share Posted March 8, 2014 connecting external microphone removed the squeal but the bass crack is still there. I really don't know if that's beacause this laptop is so old and speakers can't handle it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
npjohnson Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Probably old speakers... otherwize no clue. Yes it is related to PowerManagement. that is what Herves guide will help you fix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
