Ok, just want to drop a short update: I replaced the wlan card with a BCM4321, revision 03. No more freezes since the replace, the problem was really the old wlan card! The System runs now super smooth! Thanks Bronxteck for your support. MErry Christmas!

I was testing the last weeks a couple of configurations, but still no luck. I fixed permissions and installed combo pack on Lion but the freezes continue. I installed Snow Leopard and it freezes also. I removed the extra 1GB Ram, still no success. I noticed that always when I use wifi the freezes appear!! The wifi card I use is a Dell 1390. Maybe I should get a Broadcom wifi card on ebay like the Broadcom BCM4321 and rebrand it! Any help appreciated... This problem drives me crazy!

Hi bronxteck thanks for your reply.

I checked the fan and cleaned it. I installed istat. The notebook was at 52c when it freezed again. The fan was running normal and the cpu usage was 10 percent. I really dont know why it is always freezing. Maybe i try to install snow leopard and see if it freezes also.

Hi first of all big thanks for making mac osx on dell happened!

I got a problem with lion on a Dell D430. I followed the guide, installed edp with recommanded settings for the D430 and installed the bootloader. I boot into the new installed system and everything is working fine. Grafic, wlan, sound... But the system freezes after 15 minutes! I have disabled Speedstep but still no luck. Everytime the system freezes!

Maybe you can point me in the right direction to find out where the problem could come from.
