Lion 10.7.2 on GA-EP43 udl or GA-EP45 perfect

Finally, finally, I have a perfect (actually almost perfect) Lion 10.7.2 on my GA-EP-43 motherboard, Nvidia Quadro FX 1700 51Mb graphic card, Intel Core 2 Duo 3 GHz CPU, 8 Gb memory, and 2 data 320 Gb hard disk, asus DVD writer.
Only issue is that I can't login into iCloud and can't install software from App store.

I followed the exactly instruction at http://www.osx86.net/desktops/12776-guide-gigabyte-ep43-ud3l-installed-mac-os-x-10-7-lion-updated-10-7-2-a.html

All those tools mentioned the instruction can be easily found in the internet.
For reference, I copy the instruction here:
Tools:
-Mac OS X 10.7 Lion (Final Retail)
-Kakewalk 4.1.1
-MultiBeast 4.1.0 Lion Edition
-Mac OS X Update Combo10.7.2
-8GB USB Stick
1.) Use Kakewalk 4.1.1 and Mac OS X 10.7 Lion to create install USB Stick.
(I use computer of my friend with Mac Os X to prepare 8GB USB Stick.)

2.) Then a Clean install onto a 1TB Sata Hard drive.

First boot and Lion 10.7 working.
I have only problems with Reboot and Shutdown?

Solution is:
3.) Use MultiBeast to install:
-ElliottForceLegacyRTC
-EvOreboot
and choose repair permissions.

Reboot your computer.
4.) Download Mac OS X Update Combo10.7.2
install the combo update from Apple.
Make sure NOT to reboot!
5.) Start the Kakewalk.
Upgrade Installation and repair permisions.
Reboot your computer.
Mac OS X Lion 10.7.2 work like dream.
(All works except Sleep Mode)
