appleintelpiixata ioata panic

[steenamaroo]

hi all,

i'm new here, and have joined up cos you can't discuss 10.6 hackintoshes in my old forum<ahem>

but that aside, i've found this place to be very helpful recently, so..

i wanted to ask if anyone has encountered the problem where everything is fine in 32 bit mode,,, but in 64 bit the dvd drive isn't recognised

on my dell laptop, i get an ioata.kext kernel panic, which iive bypassed by removing appleintelpiixata.kext..

but this results in having no dvd drive.


it turns out ioata,kext isn't even being used in my system (i've removed it now) but appleintelpiixata.kext can't be used on its own without ioata....


if anyone can help i'd appreciate it, cos my 64 bit 10.6 laptop is literally perfect bar power off, and this.....(power never ever worked)

thanks in advance.
