Here's my ioreg: Sorry, I meant to say Extra, not extras. It was late. :-? I've tried pretty much every combination of name and order for my SSDT files with no success. Right now they're in what should be the correct order with the correct names. It's not really too big of a deal if I can't...

I actually had DropSSDT set to Yes until a few minutes ago, but I wasn't clear on what exactly it did so I changed it to No to test it. I just tried changing it back to Yes and setting everything in the original order and it still shows the 6870M in System Information. :/ When I extracted the...

Sorry for the late reply. Attached is a copy of my IOReg. I also included almost everything in my extras folder just in case. It's worth noting that I applied the "Replace Names" patch to my DSDT but not any of my SSDTs. Also, I haven't changed the IRQ patch yet. I'm not sure if either of...

I tried doing it by following this guide, but when I opened my decompiled ssdt-4 and tried to compile it I get a bunch of compiler errors. I even started from scratch and re-extracted my DSDT and SSDTs after changing the bios to use switchable graphics. Edit: I just realized I decompiled it...

I'll try, but I don't have the slightest clue how to go about doing that, haha. I have some programming experience though, so I guess I could probably figure it out with enough effort. :)

I think it's dual-GPU switched. Both are available to windows and they share output ports. The Intel is onboard and the ATI is some form of PCIe. If I have the bios set to switchable graphics windows seems to prioritize the 6870M, but OSX the HD3000 (although there are artifacts in OSX with SG...

I just realized I accidentally said tables instead of regions, my ignorance is showing. :-? I'll check out your IRQ fix and the rest of the stuff in that link. Thanks again for all your help. :) Also, I think GOPS and SOPS were the methods producing compile errors in the unpatched DSDT. I...

You're gonna kill me, but I was under the impression that when you booted from the USB it loaded the DSDT from there as well. I never replaced the DSDT on the OS X partition with the one I just extracted from linux. I just did and it's working fine again. :) I'm curious though, did the old...

Alright, here's the one I extracted via linux: I'm pretty sure I still had switchable graphics enabled the first time I extracted it, but the second time they were disabled and it was only using the HD3000. Also, the first time I extracted it was under Windows, but the second time was with an...

Alright, attached are two DSDT files, OldDSDT is the one I was using at the time I made this thread, and DSDT is the new one I just extracted and edited from linux. Both produce the same results. I also updated my signature and profile. Also, sorry, I didn't know the difference between kernel...

Right after finally getting everything up and running correctly, suddenly and seemingly inexplicably my Alienware m17x r3 gets kernel panics at boot. It doesn't matter if I use the USB stick or boot from the bootloader on the HDD, or even if I boot into my installation of OS X or the installer...
