Editing HCL 10.5.5

This is a component level hardware compatibility list. We want to keep it as accurate as possible, but please, do not entirely rely on this list when buying hardware. Add which parts you have working in the categories listed below, or create a new category. Please keep alphabetical order inside the categories. The categories themselves are ordered by popularity. Please list any caveats or problems as well.

* ONLY add hardware that you have TESTED. Don't add hardware just because you think it might work. 
* Please add hardware into tables. 
* This is for 10.5.5 builds only.

''' For how to edit the Wiki, please see [http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?s=&showtopic=88125&view=findpost&p=627907 this] thread. Thank you! '''

* Source: iAktos 5i (10.5.5, upgradable to 10.5.6).
* Installs fine on IDE optical drive to a SATA HDD.
* Do install procedure in following order:
* On iAktos 5i (10.5.5) install DVD, check box the following only: cameleon, dsmos, AppleSMIBIOS-28, Stock ACPI modified, APIC Driver, disabler.kext, Intel SATA, JMicron.
* Patch video card as appropriate (OsX86Tools may work okay at this point).
* Update to 10.5.6 with this procedure [http://gtdmarc.blogspot.com/2009/02/how-to-update-osx86-from-1055-to-1056.html] (follow procedure exactly).
* Audio: works 100% with this patch [http://rapidshare.com/files/210511018/ALC888.zip], do this only after 10.5.6 update.
* LAN: works 100% with this patch [http://rapidshare.com/files/210511019/Yukon88E8056.zip], do this only after 10.5.6 update.
* Use OsX86Tools to enable Quartz Extreme...but don't use OsX86Tools to download & install NVinject, this bricked my machine twice.
|9.5.0 voodoo kernel, EFI v9, Cameleon 1.0.12
|Yes, almost all functions working (lan, audio, usb, shutdown/restart, time machine) but only after following the procedure outlined here.
Unable to wake from sleep (even with current bios ver. 18).  Have not tested PS/2 ports. 
Needed to install a SATA DVD burner to rip/burn DVD/CD's without getting kernal panic.  Also, needed to use the ToH 9.2.0 kernel [http://rapidshare.com/files/228124912/mach_kernel.ToH] in order to successfully launch ''Parallels'' without kernel panic.

* iAtoks 5i with: PC EFI, Appledecrypt, SMBIOS-EFI, 9.2.0 TOH Kernel, APCI Driver, Disabler.kext, Remove Thermal, Intel AHCI sata, Jmicron, Realtek R1000
* Audio worked with ALC888 driver here [http://rapidshare.com/files/210511018/ALC888.zip]
* Used Stationapollo_ICH9 Patch to get sata to work (i used ide HD to install), had to repair permissions, and boot with -f and/or -x till it worked fully.
* Have a NVIDIA GeForce 7300 SE used NVKUSH on iAtoks disk. have full QE and Core support.
|9.2.0 TOH Kernel
|Most of the stuff works, Sleep didn't so i just disabled it, lan, usb, screensaver, audio, and ps/2 keyboard all working. Have not tested time machine. See's all 4 of my quad core.

|This board is very compatible. It works nicely with 10.5.5, and 10.5.6. With 10.5.6, sleep shuts down the computer, that is the only bug so far. Other than that you can perform a full retail fresh 10.5.6 install with a real retail DVD with [http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=135948 this guide].

|GA-EP35-DS3 rev.2.1
|Intel P35 ICH9
|This board is very nice and compatible. I have E8400 on it with 7 GB of RAM currently, two SATA disk, one PATA disk. I used iATKOS 10.5.5i to install from an ATAPI DVD drive. Just as the manual of iATKOS suggests, I used the PC EFI v9, default SMBIOS Enabler (the one for desktops), default Decrypter, stock kernel, x86 ACPI driver (because i had a PS2 keyboard and mouse), Disabler, Remove Thermal Kexts, Intel SATA non-AHCI (you could go with AHCI, but i have old XP here too on another disk and that's just me), OHR to fix the shutdown/restart issue, a driver for the Ethernet adapter RTL 8111B. As i was an idiot enough to buy a 8400GS card from Asus, i had to try many times and finally NVkush from the iATKOS DVD proved very good, QE/CI work. The only thing that I can't get to work is the ALC889A audio. Tried some solutions but none of them worked. But i'm too lazy for that and as i have a SB Extigy at hand, i will go with it because i read somewhere that it works. Oh, and i have installed the NTFS driver from iATKOS DVD and it works very well too (no problems with old drives that i have connected - all work fast and stable).
|Yes
|Yes, tho i can't figure out how to make the ALC889A audio come alive.

|Installing iDeneb v1.3 - 10.5.5 Leopard OS x86 DVD:
* Kernel section: SpeedStep (Intel/AMD/SSE2/SSE3);
* Chipset section checked: ICHx Fixed
* Fix section checked: ACPI-Fix; Cpus=1-Fix.
Hardware:
* SATA DVD & HDD drives
* onboard VGA card  
* onboard sound card (disabled in bios)
* onboard Ethernet card (disabled in bios)
* PCI phir. (enabled in bios)
* USB mouse
* Ethenet PCI RTL8139D
* Firewire PCI 400 VIA VT 6307
* GF 8400GS 256MB
NB: install system with PCI cards but without GF8400gs, then during 1 restart take out the PCI Ethernet card, then register system > go to network settings, look at hardware: Firewire there is!!! and
make the second restart, during the 2 rr. put in motherboard Ethernet card, when you are in system, go to network settings, there must be available Your ethernet and FireWire both.
Then downlaod kext for GF8XXX, install with kexthelper, and make 3rd restart. During the restart put your VGA GF8400 card in, and reconnect vga cable from onboard intel vga to external GF8400. I hope you will have success!

| Not sure (for me it was failure)
|Did not try, i had Fireface 800 (install original drivers for MAC OS X from Fireface webpage)
