Thank you for answering. =) I'm a noob, and I'm trying to minimize my chances for things to go wrong while building my first computer; let alone my first Hackintosh. I'm not totally clear on what DSDTs are (nor kexts, for that matter), but I understand that less needed = better, right? I've read the wiki and handfuls of forum threads, but definitions don't really give you an idea of what things are in practice.
Anyway, thanks again for answering. Good to know that this Mobo has working audio & ethernet. I'll have to look into FakeSMC to find out what that is. =/
Are there other motherboards that are more compatible / easier to use for Hacks than this one? Say the GA-Z77X-UD5H?
