    Default Newbie help - ASUS EAH5550, Asus Wireless Card, & P55 Audo


    Sorry, I am new to this and have been doing so much research I think I've confused myself! My first OSX86 setup!

    I have installed Snow Leopard 10.6.3 and updated to Mac OS X 10.6.5.
    I used TonyMac's Iboot + Multibeast. I can finally get it to boot without safemode but video card isn't recognized, no sound, and I'm having trouble getting my wireless card detected (I'm already considering drilling holes and routing a wire but im trying to avoid that as much as possible)

    I've been doing some research and no luck. I'm new to this so be easy...

    This is what I have:
    Motherboard: MB GIGABYTE GA-P55-USB3 LGA1156 R (v2.0 F8)
    Processor: CPU INTEL|CORE I3 540 3.06G
    Wireless Card - ASUS PCE-N13 R
    Video Card - ASUS EAH5550/G/DI/1GD3(LP) Radeon HD 5550 1GB 128-bit DDR3

    Any assistance would be GREATLY appreciated.

    I've looked at that link from insanelymac, and wow does it look complicated!!! But i will do some research and attempt it anyway.

    Before I do that, I found this Kext at this site was wondering if it would work instead of doing all the steps from the link above.
