ALC889 Not installing...

[unwrittenfuture]

I had to start over with my first Hackintosh build. Couldn't figure out what went wrong, just stopped working. Regardless, I got it back up and running after a fresh install. However, I cannot get the audio working. I'm using MB to reinstall the ALC889 kext, but it won't complete the install. In System/Library/Extension all I see is ALC8XX.kext. Is there a direct link to download the kext I need so I can use kextbeast to install????

if this kext did not work ,you still have some hda kexts in your s/l/e that need to be removed

snoop85 in s/l/e look for anything with hda in the name and alxxx enabler ,they all have to go in the trash and empty the trash ,and then install with kext utility and reboot. If the audio is showing in sys pref check all ports to see what ports are working

Check speaker ports.
