Hi guys.

Im using p6td deluxe, autopatched dsdt, macpro 4,1. i7 930

I guess my copy/write speeds are ok, but i found the interface navigation really slow when theres a Hard drive activity.

I friend of mine told me about disable Quartz beamsync, and the interface becomes faster..but not enough.. i still feel the slow effect... its worst between 2 harddrive transfers..

Lost a lot of time until now

please help

Thats my HPET:

CODE

Device (HPET)
{
  Name (_HID, EisaId ("PNP0103"))
  Name (CRS, ResourceTemplate ()
  {
    IRQNoFlags ()
    {0}
    IRQNoFlags ()
    {8}
    Memory32Fixed (ReadOnly,
    0xFED00000, // Address Base
    0x00000400, // Address Length
    _Y0F)
  })
  OperationRegion (^LPCR, SystemMemory, 0xFED1F404, 0x04)
  Field (LPCR, AnyAcc, NoLock, Preserve)
  {
    HPTS, 2,
    , 5,
    HPTE, 1,
    Offset (0x04)
  }
  Method (_STA, 0, NotSerialized)
  {
    If (LEqual (OSFL (), Zero))
  {
  If (HPTE)
  {
    Return (0x0F)
  }
}
  Else
  {
    If (HPTE)
    {
      Return (0x0B)
    }
  }
  Return (Zero)
}
Method (_CRS, 0, NotSerialized)
{
  CreateDWordField (CRS, \_SB.PCI0.SBRG.HPET._Y0F._BAS, HPT)
  Multiply (HPTS, 0x1000, Local0)
  Add (Local0, 0xFED00000, HPT)
  Return (CRS)
}

PLease help

regards

Rodrigo

Hi,

I already had this same configuration, but my MB was P6T not deluxe, almost the same DSDT.

You need this in your DSDT (thanks to TheKing):

CODE

    Device (PIC)
    {
        Name (_HID, EisaId ("PNP0000"))
        Name (_CRS, ResourceTemplate ()
        {
            IO (Decode16,
                0x0020,             // Range Minimum
                0x0020,             // Range Maximum
                0x00,               // Alignment
                0x02,               // Length
                )
            IO (Decode16,
                0x00A0,             // Range Minimum
                0x00A0,             // Range Maximum
                0x00,               // Alignment
                0x02,               // Length
                )
        })
    }

CODE

    Device (TMR)
    {
        Name (_HID, EisaId ("PNP0100"))
        Name (_CRS, ResourceTemplate ()
        {
            IO (Decode16,
                0x0040,             // Range Minimum
                0x0040,             // Range Maximum
                0x00,               // Alignment
                0x04,               // Length
                )
        })
    }

and HPET of course to load AppleIntelCPUPowermangent.kext

CODE

    Device (HPET)
    {
        Name (_HID, EisaId ("PNP0103"))
        Name (CRS, ResourceTemplate ()
        {

		   // COLOCAR AS IRQS ABAIXO
		   IRQNoFlags ()
		       {0}
		   IRQNoFlags ()
		       {8}

            Memory32Fixed (ReadOnly,
                0xFED00000,         // Address Base
                0x00000400,         // Address Length
                _Y0F)
        })

PS.: sorry about the bad english.

Hi !

I guess the auto patcher did this job, because its the same (i've checked now)

Since im using this dsdt, things are nor slower as the old times, but i guess its not 100%.

the Worst performance i get is with copies from one drive to another.

Thank you very much for your patience my friend, this problem is taking a lot of my time...

regards
