If helped you

Can you attach the DSDT you are using? And are you loading NullCPUPWM kext?

Hello philz, i'm a beginner

How can I get DSDT ?
with what tool ?

NullCPUPWM is in my /Extra/Extensions, i think is loaded

with this post I join my guide, it's a mix with your guide and Toosixy guide, works very good for me

By those instructions your NOT using a dsdt (it'd be in /Extra dsdt.aml) So that's new, it works without! But by using NullCPU you get no throttling of CPU or any power management whatsoever. For some reason yet to hear of anyone with our board having PWM...

In my EFI BIOS I let on Intel SpeedStep Technology, Turbo Mode Enabled

That only opens the CPU for power management by the OS. NullCPU however disables Apple's Powermanagement Kext in OSX. So it's still not working.

What you can do is try without the Null, but it might not boot (pop in boot cd and put it back)

Sleep works for me even with or without DSDT.aml. Up until a week ago, I wasn't using a DSDT. I am using DSDT now only for my eSATA connections (and to solve the issues with eSATA waking up from sleep - per stradivari's thread).

EIST, SpeedStep, and Turbo Mode are DISABLED on my board. I have to have the NullCPUPowerManagement kext file or it won't boot.

Then your just getting sleep, not Power Management. :/ I don't think PWM works at all on these boards, they do on the gigabytes without any fuss at all. Though the sleep issue even effects windows on the P8P67's. I'll take a look this afternoon. I already have instructions for 10.6.8 and Lion once it's released. From what I know .8 will be out by monday, and Lion very well monday. (everything gets easier) Though still no sleep for me

How I can "capture" my screens in my EFI BIOS, for sharing with you ?

 

[NHiX]

Looking forward to it!
