AUDIO & NETWORK for ASUS P5Q DELUXE MOTHERBOARD
Hello hugesabrina,
Excellent! Yep that pesky original video card was your problem. Your life should get much easier patching your OS X and making it fully functional. Audio and Network should be easy now. No Guarantees though
. So lets go for it!
* First make your life easy and print these instructions out on your printer & also have you download Multibeast yet?
You can get MultiBeast 3.9.0 Snow Leopard Edition here:
http://www.tonymacx86.com/viewforum.php?f=125
* Transfer MultiBeast 3.9.0 Snow Leopard Edition to a USB storage Flash Drive once downloaded.
* Basically you'll be sticking to the continuation of this guide 'link below' explaining use of (Multibeast) after your completed install of Snow Leopard.

* Transfer Multibeast folder right to you OS X desktop from your USB Flash Drive. Then Install the Multibeast Utility.
* Your starting to see where I'm going to help you proceed..YES? okay.
* The following steps is what I did exactly for my
Asus P5Q Deluxe if you want to cut to the chase as we say in America
* After Multibeast installed run the application till you get to the menu list of utilities that give an array of choices for patching your OS X for full functionality.
* Check boxes
'Easybeast' and
'System Utilities' Then click continue. Follow the steps to finish the install and you should eventually see a final window says
'installed successfully'
* reboot your system back into OS X
* Now we attack audio
* Run Multibeast again till you get to the utility menu list
* Click the tiny sideways triangle just before
'kext and Enablers' that will drop an extension menu of more selectable choices
* check off the
Voodo HD 0.2.72
* Also check
'System Utilities' again. You must check 'System Utilities' for every Multibeast patch used for rebuilding the OS X system cache.
* reboot back into OS X again and you should now have audio.
* okay now we will attack your network. I personally had a hard time getting network to work with my
Asus P5Q Deluxe and actually got it working by a mere experimentation of trials and errors ..I will best explain what I did and hope you have the same luck as I.
* Click on
'System Preferences' off your
'OS X Dock'
* A window pops up. Look for a category listed near toward the middle-bottom called
'Internet & Wireless'
* Under
'Internet & Wireless' category click
'Network'
* Another window will pop up. You'll notice a ---->
'IPV4' then select
'Using DHCP' from the drop list just to the right. This is what selection worked for me although you being in Italy this particular network setting may be different for your region of the world but this is where you tinker and experiment. I led you to the water. You just have to fool with this and see what works.
* Now select
'Apply' button on bottom right in the
'Network' window and
'OK' button if there is one as I can't remember there being an OK button but anyhow reboot your system back into OS X
* Hopefully you now have internet access.
* However if you still don't have internet access run Multibeast again.
* Click the tiny sideways triangle just before
'kext and Enablers' that will drop an extension menu of more selectable choices
* Select
'Network' . You will see 3 Network Kext choices you can decide upon for selection. Try any of the last 2 kexts individually. Then of course Also check
'System Utilities' again.
* Click continue and finish the installation till you get to the Multibeast pop up window says
'installed successfully'
* reboot back into OS X and hopefully now once and for all you now have internet..
* If that still don't work .. I have no further ideas regarding the
Asus P5Q Deluxe motherboard as all these documented instructions should work as they have for my same
Asus P5Q Deluxe motherboard..
* I would suggest searching for further audio and network troubleshooting issues on the tonymacx86 chat room or start a new thread in the tonymacx86 forum.
Good Luck...
a couple years ago. It is designed for optional dual monitors and is a hard core gaming card although I'm not really a gamer. 
mainly because of time constraints and my varied other interests. It is huge I will tell you! The card does require two 6 pin power connectors from your power supply important I mention so this particular card (may or may not) not be viable option for you. I just mention it only because our motherboards are identical twins.
and why I chose it from the database. It was listed among compared others needing least amount of work or tinkering according to written comments.
