ASUS-P5E3Premium-Hackintosh

Hackintosh for P5E3 Premium/WiFi-AP @n motherboard using OS X 10.8.3 Mountain Lion.
This is a minimal guide that fits my hardware configuration.

Intel X48 chipset.
Intel Core 2 Extreme / Core 2 Quad / Core 2 Duo / Pentium Extreme / Pentium D / Pentium 4 Processors (LGA775 socket).

Onboard devices:

  • Ralink RT2770F wireless USB adapter
  • JMicron JMB363 ATA-133/SATA-3.0GB/s PCI-E controller
  • LSI (Formerly Agere) L-FW3227 PCI IEEE-1394 FireWire controller
  • Realtek RTL-8110SC PCI to Gigabit Ethernet controller
  • Marvell 88E8056-NNC1 PCI-Express to Gigabit Ethernet controller
  • Analog Devices AD1988B HD audio chipset

BIOS settings

Latest BIOS: version 0803 (2009/06/22 update)

  • Exit / Load Setup Defaults
  • Main / SATA Configuration / Configure SATA as - AHCI
  • Advanced / J-Micron eSATA/PATA Controller / Controller Mode - AHCI (needed only if you use legacy IDE drives)
  • Power / Suspend Mode - S3 only
  • Power / ACPI 2.0 Support - Enabled
  • Power / ACPI APIC Support - Enabled

DSDT

Do not use DSDT files (*.aml) generated by others, you must generate your own. It is recommended to re-generate the DSDT file each time you change your hardware (memory, graphic card...).

These DSDT patches should work for most ASUS P5* motherboards (Intel X38, X48 and probably P45 chipsets).

If this is not a new OS X install, boot using Chameleon option DSDT=No to make sure you are not running OS X with an already patched DSDT.

Inside a Terminal:

curl -OL https://github.com/tkrotoff/ASUS-P5E3Premium-Hackintosh/archive/master.zip
unzip master.zip
cd ASUS-P5E3Premium-Hackintosh-master
./concat_dsdt_patches.rb

This generates file all_dsdt_patches.txt.

Install DSDT Editor then:

  • Extract DSDT
  • Apply all_dsdt_patches.txt patch
  • IASL Compile + fix errors
  • Save AML as *.aml on the desktop for MultiBeast or directly to /Extra/DSDT.aml

Sources:

MultiBeast

Using version 5.3.0.

Check:

  • UserDSDT or DSDT-Free Installation
  • Audio / Universal / VoodooHDA 0.2.7.3 (can provoke crashes at boot time)
  • Disk / TRIM Enabler (if you own a SSD disk)
  • Network / Realtek - AppleRTL8169Ethernet
  • System / AppleACPIPlatform Rollback / 10.6.8 Rollback for ASUS X58 System (see #1)
  • Boot Options / GraphicsEnabler=No (if you own a natively supported GPU like the Nvidia GeForce GT 640)
  • Boot Options / Verbose Boot (if you want to see what's going on)
