[QUOTE="vansmith, post: 1220530, member: 71075"] The last thing you want to do is start messing with kexts - you're asking for trouble by doing that. Also note that kexts aren't active unless they've been loaded. To check which kexts are loaded, open up Terminal (/Applications/Utilities) and execute the following:[code]kextstat -l[/code]I'm willing to bet that a significant portion of them are Apple ones.
