OSX 10.6.3 retail
Pre Install
on my bios after playing around and trying different combinations I just left as Optimal defaults,
Only disabled two options in the advanced tab. will update when I reboot, but left all others enabled and left my usb pci card in and all other hardware connected.

Install was a breeze I just used the PCIRootUID=1 and in 20 min or less it was rebooting.
Had a bit of a issue on reboot the apple logo with a wheel spinning black and white but the audio came on with the intro movie but no video still the (apple logo with a wheel spinning black and white) powered down and up solved it with GraphicsEnabler=no
loaded osx no problem just low res video, but everything else was up and running,

Installed the 10.6.8 update ran the multibeast with the EasyBeast and System Utilities video perfect but no sound. Tried everything different audio kext but nothing.

Take 2:

all the same but after the 10.6.8 update did not run multibeast had to boot with iboot cd and all was working fine ran mutibeast with userDSDT and System Utilities, again no go.

Take 3

all the same but after the 10.6.8 update just installed the boot-loader. rebooted and 2 time got a kernel panic third time ok.

but every time i rebooted or powered on the same....

Take 4

Installed the 10.6.8 update ran the multibeast with the EasyBeast and System Utilities video perfect but no sound. Tried everything different audio kext but nothing. ended up installing a sound blaster Audigy and the KX audio driver v. 1.3b0 and audio works but no mic.

I do not understand why before mutibeast my audio was fine recognized all audio outputs and inputs and after nada........


if someone out their nows a fix i’d be grateful.


non the less I what to thank tonymacx86.com for some of the beast tools, and all contributors to the forum.

Good long narrative, if you could be more specific....if you added specific details it would be better. For instance: specifically which BIOS settings did you change, what is state of AHCI, HPET etc.

If your audio worked with iBoot, it should work after MultiBeast either with AppleHDARollback +RealtekALC8xxHDA OR one of the VoodooHDA versions. If you have installed both Voodoo and Realtek you will end up with a conflict and no sound. So, I suggest you remove one or the other and try again.

What audio codec you have onboard?
If you do not have DSDT.aml from database, you need to select in MultiBeast either voodoohda + system utilities or ALC8xx kext + AppleHDA rollback to 10.6.2 + HDAEnablerXXX for your codec + system utilities.

But no sound, I have the speaker on my menu bar, I can control it with my keyboard. and in sound preferences it says I have audio installed. but no sound.

If you have the speaker icon and it is adjustable and you outputs show in preferences.....seems odd you have no sound.

Can you recheck your rear jack and all connections as well as external speaker. On my build the front panel speaker only beeps, but the rear panel jack works fine.
