Dell Xps 15 L502x Drivers For Mac

80% Dell XPS 15 L502X Source: Digital Versus Dell has given the XPS 15 all the most recent components, including a Sandy Bridge series processor. This 15.6-inch laptop aims to bring multimedia.

I'm attempting to install Snow leopard on my Dell L502x. I used the legacy url='in combination with iatkos to install mac. I had to boot the DVD in safe mode (-x) and had to wait unusually long for iatkos to begin booting but it worked and I was able to mac successfully. However, it will not boot.I was wondering if anyone else had success with a hackintosh dell XPS 15 and if anyone knows if the Nvidia 540m was compatible yet.

When install with iatoks i get a kernel panic after installation and when i try to do url='url='with a macbook osx 10.6.3 dvd, it gets into setup and says 'mac cannot be installed on this computer'Did it mention you about GUID partition? Retail OSX 10.6.3 cannot be installed on MBR partition (usually used with Windows).

You either need your disk in GUID partition or patch your 10.6.3 dvd. Ok I got it to work with url='retail cd! Have u gotten anyway with sound and video yet?I have the l702x HD model and i uses Tonymac's nvidia kexts that can be found here.I havent figuered out the audio either.

I dont want to swap out the intel wireless have you made any progress in getting it working?url='3.0 wouldnt work for me either kept on crashing had to load up the legacy and use the FixFSB=Yes and PCIRootUCID=1 to get it to install. Did you have to do the same as well?Is your installation loading up for you as well? I can only get into os x with the url='cd. I have the l702x HD model and i uses Tonymac's nvidia kexts that can be found here.I havent figuered out the audio either. I dont want to swap out the intel wireless have you made any progress in getting it working?url='3.0 wouldnt work for me either kept on crashing had to load up the legacy and use the FixFSB=Yes and PCIRootUCID=1 to get it to install.

Did you have to do the same as well?Is your installation loading up for you as well? I can only get into os x with the url='cd.i have installed 10.6.7 but i can't boot from the hard drive i could only boot with the cd im trying figure out why doesnt boot from hard drive. To get the installation to boot I used the legacy url='and iatkos. I used -v and GraphicsEnabler=No and it booted right up. For the installation i unchecked EVERYTHING except for the base system. A retail dvd is probably better for our laptops.

After installation I had to use the legacy url='to boot the partition with -v and GraphicsEnabler=No. I think the legacy url='is necessary because the stock mac kernel doesn't support the new i7 processor. Has anyone gotten Audio or video to work? I have the l702x HD model and i uses Tonymac's nvidia kexts that can be found here.I havent figuered out the audio either. This minimalist clock screen saver for mac. I dont want to swap out the intel wireless have you made any progress in getting it working?url='3.0 wouldnt work for me either kept on crashing had to load up the legacy and use the FixFSB=Yes and PCIRootUCID=1 to get it to install.

Did you have to do the same as well?Is your installation loading up for you as well? I can only get into os x with the url='cd.Are you saying you have good video are your L702x? Would you please post your video's profiler information? Steve - I am reinstalling OS X but i was about to get a 21fps on cinebench. I am not saying it is 100 with QE but i am able to get its native resolution with tonymac's nvidia kexts.Has anyone else been having problems with the track pad sensitivity?

When i raise the speed it becomes spastic and jumps all over the place.That's good news on the video front - I have a L702x on order.The trackpad has always been an issue for me; in every machine I've hacked it acts like that (Mini 10, Inspiron 1525, L701X, Dell E1705). I finally bought an Apple bluetooth trackpad which now I simply cannot do without; it not only works perfectly but is very comfortable to use and much better (in my opinion) than the built-in or a mouse. Edit: HEre is a more streamlined way to get it installed. There are still quite a few things that are not workingYou need1. url='legacy latest version2. 10.6.3 retail dvd (usb does not work)3. 10.6.6 combo updateHere is how you install1.

Boot with url='legacy dvd2. Swap the disk for 10.6.3 dvd and hit f53. Select the dvd and press spacebar4. Type '-v FixFSB=Yes GraphicsEnabler=No' without the quotes and press enter5. This will bring up the installer after a series of prompts6. Install nomall with typical selections.7.

Once done it will reboot but it will fail to reboot on its own.8. So put the url='cd in and still use '-v FixFSB=Yes GraphicsEnabler=No' parameters to boot the hard drive this time.9. Download and copy url='download and install 10.6.6, but before restarting at the end of the install, run url='and select easy beast and install11. RestartWhat is not working1. Intel Wifi (I replaced it with a Dell 1510 wifi adapter and it works out of the box)3.

Nvidia adapter - no native resolution (dont know why it is not working yet)4. USB - i cannot figure it out. I heard that it had to do with irq conlicts between HPET and USB. Have not tried deleting the HPET kext. Apparently that is supposed to fix it but also breaks power mgt.5.

Cannot boot from the hard drive directly.- old post below-With 10.6.0 retail dvd, sound works fine but once you upgraqde to 10.6.6 it starts breaking up. SO may be there is something 10.6.0 that we need to keep and reapply it after the combo updateWith 10.6.3 retail DVD, sound breaks from the beginning.
