Upgrading my MSI Wind Hackintosh to 10.5.7..

No Comments »

Doing it the cowboy way – not even bothering to read about it. Wish me luck !

Update: The install went relatively well, but after rebooting, I had no sound, and 800×600.
I installed the driver pack from : http://forums.msiwind.net/osx-drivers/retail-install-driver-pack-final-release-t11311.html which shouldn’t be used with installs that were made with the MSIWindOSX.iso installer, but what the heck.

Had troubles booting, removed the Realtek 1000 Ethernet card kext ( in single user mode )..

It now boots..

Wifi: Still works
Photo Booth: Still works
Sound: Still works
Ethernet: Probably doesn’t work, I don’t feel like finding a cable and an available port to test it :) (should be easily fixable though)

Sleep: Works and resumes fast, seems to cause issues with Photo Booth if you sleep while the camera was on, though I am not sure this is a “new issue”. Closing and restarting photo booth works.

Anything else I should test?
