Should be fixed now: - used MBP5,1 profile (FakeSMC editing + SMBIOS plist) - removed nullCPUPowerManagement from /E/E (!)
-
MBP5,1 should work just perfectly, well at least it did on mine and several others I helped tune... No reason why it would be different on yours, especially if you've reinstated that kext you appear to require for your HD Video playback. Did you try VLC at all?

Here are BIOS settings that are known to work on Precision 670 under Snow Leopard, Lion, Mountain Lion, Mavericks and Yosemite. The settings below apply to BIOS A07 with which they were tested and verified: Drives: . SCSI Controller = Off unless you have a SCSI HDD used with Windows (unsupported under OS X) . Diskette Driver = Internal (or any other choice according to needs) . Drive 0: SATA-0 = On or Off as required . Drive 0: SATA-1 = On or Off as required . Drive 0: PATA-0 = On or Off as required . Drive 0: PATA-1 = On or Off as required . Drive 0: PATA-2 = On or Off as required . Drive 0: PATA-3 = On or Off as required . SATA Operation = RAID Off . SMART Reporting = On or Off Onboard devices: . Integrated NIC = On (supported under SL and Lion in 32bit mode - turn off if using another ethernet card for ML and Mav) . Integrated Audio = On (supported under SL and Lion in 32bit mode - turn off if using another audio device for ML and Mav) . USB Controller = On . 1394 Controller = On . LPT Port Mode = Off (or any other setting) . Serial Port #1 = Auto . Serial Port #2 = Auto . PS/2 Mouse Port = On Video: . Primary Video = PEG Performance: . CPU Count = On for dual-CPU setups, Off otherwise . Multiple CPU Core = On (only available on dual-core capable motherboards fitted with dual-core Paxville Xeons) . HyperThreading = On (or Off - some tests report that Paxville DP have decreased performance with HyperThreading on) . SpeedStep = On . HDD Acoustic Mode = Performance (or any other setting) Security: . Admin Password = unset or otherwise . System Password = unset or otherwise . Password Changes = Unlocked . Chassis intrusion = On-Silent . Execute Disable = On Power Management: . AC Recovery = Off . Auto Power On = Off . Auto Power Time = Default value . Low Power Mode = On . Remote Wake Up = Off . Suspend Mode = S3 Maintenance: . SERR DMI Message = On POST behaviour: . Fast Boot = On . Numlock Key = On . OS Install = Off . POST Hotkeys = Setup & Boot menu . Keyboard Errors = Report

Error after boot up - Mac OSX cannot be installed on this computer
Hervé replied to epic2015's topic in The Archive
You cannot install SL with a DVD that came with a Mac, only with a Retail DVD! There are 3 versions: 10.6, 10.6.3 and 10.6.8. No other version will work. Only the Retail disks/images have all the necessary installation files required for Hackintoshes. -
https://osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/2120-supportedunsupported-wireless-cards-inventory/ That card works OOB = Out Of the Box. No additional kexts required, it'll work straight away.

Mac OS X 10.6.1 DVD is not a Retail version and that's what you need; only 3 retail versions exist: 10.6, 10.6.3 and 10.6.8. You will not succeed with your current DVD I'm afraid... Only the Retail DVDs have all the necessary installation files required for Hackintoshes; DVDs delivered with real Macs won't do.

AppStore requires the LAN card to work as en0 interface (use Terminal command ifconfig)...

Just use the regular myHack USB installation process with the bootpack + AMD kernel I posted in the main Precision 670 guide: https://osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/2061-dell-precision-470-670-workstation/&do=findComment&comment=35008 That workstation will not boot any vanilla kernel so you have to manually call on the AMD kernels or rename them "mach_kernel". It's better to rename the AMD kernel file as 'mach_kernel' in order to successfully rebuild cache in a totally standard and transparent way.

No sleep issue with 10.9.2 on D630 nVidia here... But I'm using native power management/SpeedStep with Kozlek's FakeSMC. Try and use the M4300 pack I posted a few months ago.

I'm afraid you need SL8MA dual-core Paxville Xeon DP CPUs (and therefore XC837 motherboard) for anything above Snow Leopard. 64bit single core Irwindale will simply not do... All my attempts to boot one of those AMD kernels failed until I swapped my initial Irwindale Xeon processors (3.8GHz, 2Mo L2) with dual-core 2.8GHz Paxville models.

No issue at all; 'using VoodooHDA.

If you want to discuss T510, please start a new thread.

1) free app called "Display Menu" off AppStore 2) sort of

Most likely, yes! Change your serial number with Chameleon Wizard SMBIOS editing...

Make sure your Ethernet interface is 1st installed interface, i.e. en0. Check with Terminal command ifconfig. If it's not, remove all interfaces from Network System Pref Pane and all plist from /Library/Preferences/System Configuration. Reboot then add your Ethernet interface to begin with and the rest afterwards.

D430 lion 10.7.x failing to get to initial setup screen
Hervé replied to pongc's topic in The Archive
i would start all over with the bootpack I gave you (it has the correct Ethernet kext by the way). Redo your USB installer and make sure to re-run myHack at the end to install the bootpack to uour USB installer with "install Extra". -

Try this pack... D430_Extra_Lion.zip -
D430 lion 10.7.x failing to get to initial setup screen
Hervé replied to pongc's topic in The Archive
If you have an Intel wireless card, disable or remove it. -
You probably need to install the older AppleACPIPlatform kext in /Extra/Extensions and install it with myHack->myfix (quick) to fix this. The kext is available off many Latitude D Series like D620 or D630.

Yes, our site is allergic to these tools. We only support muHack installation method here but if you wish to pursue with your other method, I guess you already know it has its own dedicated web site.

The idea is to incite Hackintoshers to educate themselves, not to spoonfeed them. Hence the repeated invitations to search, read and experiment, especially when matters/requests previously covered resurface.
