DSDT for Asus P8z77 v lx ?

[jspartan]

Hi,

I'm making a hackintosh and new to this. My current computer involves the asus p8z77 v lx motherboard. The installation of Mac OS X 10.8.2 (mountain lion) was successful. Before running Multibeast, ik i need to get the dsdt file. I have done reading online and have confused myself.

1. Do I need a DSDT file? What does the file do/fix? (I read that I do not need to have a dsdt file)

2. Where can i get a dsdt file if i need one?

3. Do I need to flash my bios/efi if I have a dsdt file?

4. Where i can get a modded/patched bios to flash?

5. Is patching the bios related to the dsdt file?

Thanks for your help!

Use search for gathering information for your motherboard and CPU configuration. It is good for finding other stuff to.

Thanks a lot Adrian B for your help! I am finally getting somewhere but ran into a few problems. After applying the patch to the default DSDT, when i go to compile, i get these 2 error messages:

Error (Code 6105): Invalid Object Type for reserved name(_CRS: Found Integer, Buffer required)
Warning (Code 3128): ResourceTag larger than Field (Size mismatch, Tag: 64 bits, Field: 32 bits)

What should I do to resolve these errors (also, i tried searching on here and google, and did not get any results)? Should I ask PJALM because they made the patch?

Thanks for your help!

Bump: Does anyone have a possible solution?

Also, I was thinking, for the warning about 64 bit vs 32 bit, could it be because the patch was made for 32 bit and I have to change that value to 64 bit? I have never done this before, so ive been trying to find a solution.

Please let me know if my fix might work and how I can fix the 2 errors.

Thanks,
