  1. Did you install and run EDP to do a System Build? That would normally take care of everything.

     

    • patched STAC92xx audio drivers and VoodooHDA kexts both work on the D620 nVidia. You should use one of them. Check that you have either in your /E/E folder and, if EDP did not copy them across for some unknown reason, copy them from /Extra/Storage/kextpacks. Remember to re-run myFix (full) afterwards.
    • the D620 nVidia 110M does indeed suffer from that black/gray screen issue you've experienced where the screen (not the computer) does not wake properly from sleep: it stays gray. To recover from that, you can sleep&wake the computer or configure power savings so that screen sleep and computer sleep have the exact same timer.
    • closing the lid should put the laptop to sleep without problems and re-opening it should wake it Ok.
    Regarding the link you mentioned for sleep, please note that only the hibernation part applies to the D620 nVidia. The BIOS part only applies to the GMA950 model, the nVidia model does not need this BIOS password. However, I recommend that you configure your BIOS settings according to the pinned post on the matter.
    I did run EDP. But it's still glitchy.. I'll try copying the files manually.. I did not run myfix.. I'll try that now
  2. OK so i got the OS X 10.6 to install fine on the Dell latitude D620 NVIDIA, but i am having issues

     

    1). Audio drivers not working.

    2) If i leave alone screen goes black and wont turn on

    3) if i shut lid, it wont come back on.

    everything else is fine.. can someone please help me.

    i already read the 

    Getting sleep to work on your Dell Latitude

     and it did not help..

    Thanks in advanced

  3. Now would be a good time to sit down, browse our web site (and other places on the Net too) and do a little information gathering.

    i did.. i thought i would get a little 1 on 1 with the pros here ;)

  4. You'll find a wifi card at places that sell computers parts. That naturally extends to on-line places (I'm sure you can think of a well-known one) or private ads. You can lookup for supported models in the inventory published in the R&D->Hardware->Network section of this forum. The D620 takes a full size mini-PCIe card.

     

    You can install Snow Leopard on your D620 as is, but it still wouldn't support any Intel wireless card.

    ok, i can still use LAN correct, and how do i install Snow leopard. Can i use myHack's tool?

  5. yes there is a way... you replace it with a wifi card that is supported by osx. same might go for your CPU if you want to run Lion

    where would i find a wifi card and should i install SL 10.6

  6. centrino just means Intel chipset,CPU,and intel wifi.... which by the way will also mean your intel wifi is not supported.

    wait wait wait.... >.< So my wireless wont work? is there any way? Every computer i get works with it but my wireless never does. there must be a way

  7. Hmm, "Centrino" is a platform branding, not a CPU model per sé. You should look up in the info page of your BIOS settings, there'll be a CPU identifier (like a 4digit number). If you still have a Windows installation for that laptop, the CPU will be listed under "My Computer -> Properties" or in the device manager.

    Processor Type = Intel® Core DUO Processor

    Processor ID = 06E8

  8. The D620 supports Intel Core Solo, Core Duo and Core2Duo FSB667 CPUs. Lion requires a computer fitted with a Core2Duo CPU or it won't install. So, you need to identify your exact CPU model before you carry on.

    Ok if this little sticker says Intel Centrino duo

     

  9. Ok, so I have a Dell Latitude D620 with the nvidia graphics card and I got a copy of Mac Lion from app store  Then downloaded the myHack tool. Installed the Lion to the 16 GB flash drive and installed the extras using the myHacks tool. Then I made sure my Bios is all good by looking at the other forum and everything checks out. Booted to USB and it loads the loader fine. When I press enter to continue the boot. it does its loading stuff but when all done it brings me to a black screen and my USB light went off. I been on this for hours.. Any help please would be appreciated. Thanks!
