I would like to ask whether there is the remote chance of getting ML working on the 1440x900 intel using the DSDT for intel instead of the one supplied in the extras file in the Nvidia sticky thanks?

Have recently installed a solid state hard drive and installed lion 10.7.3, can I ask how do I get the S/PDIF working again? I have connected an optical lead to the computer and then connected to my Dac but there is no red light shining via the optical lead. Anyone has any advice as to how to achieve this? I do believe that the headphone output carries an S/PDIF signal but ain't sure. If I buy a port replicator will it work? Thanks.

Thanks to Sipart who has showed me how to do this thanks again up and running now.

Managed to install Lion after a great and much valued and appreciated amount of help from Sipart amongst others , unfortunately my laptop doesn't seem to be allowing Internet access via the Ethernet is there anything that I can do to get this working l I realise that you can have problems with wifi but considered Ethernet may be different any further help or advice appreciated D630 Intel 1400/900 graphics card . Wayne

apologies Simon your right I meant myhack!! cheers

Can anyone direct me to dsdt for D630 with intel 1440/900 Graphics please thanks

I have gone back to A17 will let you know how I get on when I get another chance to install or attempt to install it anyone any idea where I can find the high resolution dsdt?

Hello i have already removed the wifi card and replaced it with an up to date one which will work with OSX, my screen resolution is 1440/900 intel graphics , I would have thought though that if the graphics wern't going to work then you would see nothing at all , I do manage to see the apple logo and spinner for a couple of seconds , apparently others are having the same issue on here with 2,2 , so you suggest going back to stock Bios??, how do you install dsdt as I cannot find a walk through of how to do this thanks

Oh and my specs mirror yours mines intel 2.2 same resolution and everything.

I. Am having exactly the same issue as you mention , so your not alone I have used edp 2.2 one of the other members has helped me with formatting the USB pen he's kind and is helping me again to hopefully solve the issues I'm having, if I get any success I'll get back to you but as I say your not alone I. Having that problem it's probably edp 2.2 thanks Wayne But I'm a total newbie to this so really can't be sure but others seems to be having similar problems , which in a way is reassuring, to hear I'm not alone with such problems.

Hello again have flashed the Bios with the one on the site for the d630 which I thought would helped have a nice apple logo instead of the dell one now but sadly the install still wont happen same thing happens after all the steps mentioned above even with the Bios being flashed to make it more seamless???, any help please

im not using a DSDT have read the wki and wouldnt have a clue about how to go about installing one of those unfortunately, backdated my bios to A17 from A18 to see whether that made a difference but hasnt what so ever, I thought this was going to be a little hard but not as hard as this seems all settings on computer where as have been suggested hard disc altered from ATA and everything , I dont understand what I could be doing wrong. even tried the other way of doing it via iboot (chameleon, stolen and rebranded) but no joy there also thanks Wayne

Sorry what's a dsdt please?

Bronxteck tried that also same result as before lots of pages of code then a grey screen then nothing at all

Have tried to boot via the Afore mentioned method still no luck unfortunately around 6 pages of information then a grey screen for a second or two then nothing?

How do I do this please , where do you input those parameters as all I get is press any key to enter set up option?, or don't touch it and nothing happens thanks.

Am currently trying to install Lion on a D630,one of the guys kindly helped me out with format of pen, can I ask how long it should take to get to the disc utility screen as I have been waiting for 30 mins with a blank screen?, when I booted I got the Myhack ( press any key screen ) left it to do its thing got up to the apple logo with the spinner starting, after 10 seconds a blank screen and nothing else what sp ever, have tried keeping my finger on mouse etc , how long does it are please.

read on here that you should update to latest Bios somewhere which i already have done, hopefully isn't detrimental to me installing the hacked osx

Hello there, if anyone from the Uk would be prepared to install the files on a usb pen for me on an intel based 10.6 computer id appreciate it?, I can forward the pen with an image of OSX 10.6 to you, I cannot unfortunately follow the up to date wiki as my computer isnt compatible with the myhacks programs etc, My hack EDP unfortunately wasn't built and isn't compatible with my old Leopard based IBM so I cannot install all the other files need on the USB stick any advice help appreciated

any advice appreciated on how you managed to do the install thanks appreciated, please see my post also about the d630

Apologies but I'm getting confused with all this can I explain exactly what I am planning to do and have done Firstly I followed the old tutorial which is as follows Here you can find two solutions for howto create a boot able USB pen with OSX. Method 1. – Use a retail OSX 10.6.0 Requirements: 1. 8gb USB pen 2. OSX SL 10.6.0 image (not anything higher) 3. a working OSX machine  Howto: 1. Re-partition your usb pen as GUID and Mac OS file system 2. Restore the orginal OSX SL 10.6.0 image to the pen using Disk Utility’s restore function 3. Install the bootloader (attached to post) onto the usb pen – You can download it from below. (Remember to select correct destination) 4. Extra the extra.zip to the root of the USB drive (attached to post) 5. Boot and install =)  I have 1. Repartioned USB stick to GUID one partition on The PPC G5 2. I have then copied Snow leopard using disc utility 3. I then copied tha Chameleon Bootloader to the USB stick and also the extras folder to the same USB stick Here in lies my confusion in section 5 it says boot and install, I presume that this means boot the D630 with the USB stick or does it mean boot the D630 as normal via windows operating system and then install the software on the desktop? Of windows I thought that you had to alter some parameters in the Bios but there is no mention of this in the instructions above?. Do I download and copy my hack to the desktop of the D630 or to the USB stick which has Sl and the other files on? I am following the old instructions but they don't mention Myhack or anything else If you could kindly explain in simple terms exactly what to do with the USB stick do I copy the contents to the windows desktop of the D630 and what parameters do I need to alter in the bios To Stress I only have the following components and software Apple PPC G5 PRE SL IBM Platform USB Stick D630 Running Windows 7 I note after reading the MyHack instructions that my computer is NOT supported with their software hence me wishing to use the old instructions to Quote myhack - You will also need access to an x86 system (PPC is not supported) that is currently running OS X 10.5 or above (Leopard, Snow Leopard, Lion, or Mountain Lion) to prepare your USB installation device. if anyone could explain everything I need to do to use my current desktop as the old instructions at the top of this post are very short Thanks very much in advance Wayne

is this correct please this is what I have on the USB Stick thanks , what do I do after that any advice please?

Hello up to now I have formated the USB Stick to GUID I have copied Snow Leopard 10.6 to the Drive. Can I ask what I do now where is the bootloader? I can see Chameleon on the link at the bottom of the page is that the bootlader please? can you please provide a link as to what else I need to put on the USB stick I have downloaded the Chameleon and the extras folder please offer advice about how I can progress with it cheers Wayne what do I do when all files oare on the USB pen ( boot from that ?? ) surely it cant be as simple as that?

I think ill try the old install method i have a few questions about the following please Requirements: 1. 8gb USB pen 2. OSX SL 10.6.0 image (not anything higher) 3. a working OSX machine Howto: 1. Re-partition your usb pen as GUID and Mac OS file system 2. Restore the orginal OSX SL 10.6.0 image to the pen using Disk Utility’s restore function 3. Install the bootloader (attached to post) onto the usb pen – You can download it from below. (Remember to select correct destination) 4. Extra the extra.zip to the root of the USB drive (attached to post) 5. Boot and install =) in section 1. do you format to two partitions or one partition please I have a 14gb usb pen or does all the information go onto one partiion? in Section 2 do you put the SL 10.6 on a secondary partition or the same one please? in section 3 does the bootloader go on the same partion as SL? if you could explain thanks

Thanks I'm at a stumbling block then, basically am I right in thinking that you need an intel machine to load the softwares on the USB stick and then you run everything via the USB stick? Or do you have to physically connect the machine to an intel based machine?, sadly I have no access to intel based apples , any further advice appreciated
