Leopard isn't 64-Bit. You have to use Snow Leopard... ;D

[Venddenta]

just use windows...

[SourcemAlm]

Hi. :) You can enable OS X to use all 4 cores and HT! :D For doing that, you need to patch your DSDT! Google your CPU and how to DSDT patch it :) Worked for me with i7 920 ^^

[nandor690]

That is a quad core processor, using CPUs=1 is telling your machine to only use 1 of the cores!?!

Just buy a retail snow leopard and use your 10.5.8 to format a 8gig flash drive to a boot drive using Cham. There are good step by step guides on insanelymac. After 10.6 is installed you can update to 10.6.2 using mac updates but first remove sleepenable from E/E and replace it with netkas,s 10.6.2 version. Then you can add efi strings and modify your dsdt. This is what I did with a g41m-es2l.

use windows?

[redsoxhater2468]

I think you said you're running intel, and if you are, I'm surprised your motherboard isn't friend yet from using the voodoo kernal...

[BILLYBOBMANTARAY]

Try using another distro...like IPC

[hadiakbari]

If u still have the problem, I think u can install Mac os x Snow leopard 10.6 retail. its cool

I have GA-Ep45-EXTREME and its working like charm.

I think all GIGABYTE motherboard's BIOS almost the same check ur BIOS and configure it.

P45, 775 socket.

P55, 1156 socket.

Very, VERY different in terms of compatibility.

[dhinostroza]

Try editing boot.plist with EFIStudio or OSx86Tools. Add v- cpus=1 busratio=20 to the boot flag.

[horapa]

I have the same motherboard and I can boot with "cpus=4" on i5 tho

[chri475r]

hihi

[MartinAyla]

Try "cpus=2" maybe?

Try NOT using a distro.

Can you run without voodoo kernel (vanilla)?

[miked826]

Try installing Chameleon v3

[hyacinth63]

I noticed that you used Voodoo PS/2 driver. I think that there's a comment in one of the other selections (9.7.0 kernel?) that says that you can't use the Voodoo PS/2 but to use the other PS/2 select. Then try it again without the "cpus=1" option (I've seen it work on the same motherboard/CPU combo)

[miked826]

Leave out the "cpus=1" and write down the line it hangs on......then google that line.
