my asus x83v also has a intel wifilink 5100, how did the replacement go?
I was think of doing the same i saw a this one, it says it works with all notebook, but hp, etc..which is great...did you have to flash a custom bios like you said you might have to, and which card did you get "broadcom-4311 wise" after you installed it what did you do just boot up a snow leopard just picked it right up, or what? PLEASE tell me everything in detail thanks!

A few things I'd like to add also, I used voodooBattery to get my battery meter fully working, I also had flaky USB controllers until I installed a pkg that came with the developer version of snow leopard. (10A..etc), and after some searching I found a patched version of RealtekR1000.kext that I have in my e/e folder that works in 64 bit.
this solutions obviously apply specifically to my config, hp dv5 1054tx (pci vendor info in my first post)
hope this helps others! |
