Thread: quick guide on asus g50vt-x5

My asus g50vt-x5 ..

Asus G50Vt-X5-RF Review | 15.6″ Intel Core 2 Duo P7450 2.13GHz Gaming Notebook PC (Refurbished) | laptop |it-echo.Com::Product Review and Tech

Get the Snow Leopard 10.6.6 SSE2/SSE3 Intel Only by Hazard installer. I got this but i do own a legal copy of osx.

install.

in custom when installing os x

bootloader Chameleon RC5
select nvidia enabler
mouse use voodoo only
sound use voodoo hd 2.72
network wired, select realtek
sata/ide ahci
select voodoo battery

install then of course.

Do combo update for 10.6.7, before hitting restart install the legacy kernal update (darwins 10.7) and install it. then hit restart on the combo update.. Bingo done. All i can think of off hand...
Of course there is no sdcard support and the web cam doesn't work but no big deal.. I tried 2 different usb cams
and they worked fine.

you won't have wifi unless you change your wifi card.
Install the time fix too! - you know where to get it...

os x 10.6.7 Asus g50vt

UPDATE!
Did combo update for 10.6.8 , did the kernel install for the 10.6.8 after installed update but not before restart of course.
when system restarted i lost scrolling for trackpad.. that was fixed with this.
updated Trackpad+Keyboard PS2 32/64 - Downloads - Kexts.com
Just used the TRACKPAD.SYNAPTIC-GESTURE.zipe and followed the instructions and worked like a charm! So all is back to normal.

This laptop KICK"S ASS!
