Tips
If you have the same motherboard as me (ASUS-P5G41T-M LX), chances are that you may have a couple of issues with your system, these being Ethernet and audio.
Ethernet
The Asus board that I have runs the AR8131 Ethernet driver and for some reason this doesn't work!
I had to install a special kext file (AtherosL1cEthernet.kext) this can be found here (http://www.mediafire.com/?ss4ewoe6rdrc7kp) using a program called Kext Helper (http://cheetha.net/).
I also ran another program called Kext Utility, which repairs the kext directory permissions after you install (It can be installed from the multibeast program).
Ethernet worked great after that, and my broadband could be used.
Audio
After I installed, I didn't have any sound, the best way of getting this is to install the HDA voodoo sound program. This can be found on the multibeast program.
One possible issue I had was that I installed the very latest HDA voodoo audio program from multibeast, and after I rebooted, the sound quality was strange, sometimes I would ear the odd popping sounds, that wasn't great, so I had to downgrade to the second most recent HDA voodoo driver found on the multibeast program.
From then on its been a perfect install so far!
Hope this helps anyone with the same motherboard as me.
