I'd look for errors in kernel.log, look at ioreg, and fix the relevant sections of dsdt accordingly.

Your motherboard may be perfect for PT, especially if it works in Win but doesn't works in OSX. So the problem is most probably with the way you installed OSX.

OK, so I managed to update my BIOS to the latest version, extract my DSDT (see attachment) and compile it, resulting in the following warnings:

Which ones should I fix and how?

JK, that's the SuperMicro?

Have you viewed some before and after DSDT'S?

Those are not what I expected to see.

Yes, this is the X9SCA-F DSDT and no, I haven't looked at other DSDT's as everybody mentioned that every DSDT is different and therefore not comparable. What kind of DSDT have you expected? How does the Supermicro differ from the others? Do you know how to fix these warnings? Do they even mean a lot?

Building a GA-Q67M-D2H-B3/i7 2600 next week... RAM will arrive on monday (everything else is here).
No Hackintosh.... just a Windows XP/Protools 7.4 HD2/(hopefully) Sandybridge build.
Next update will be W7/PT HD9...

I will be back in a few days with some results.

Noone that can help me with my DSDT problem? I'd really like to get this board to work...
