Hello All,

I've made for you a universal installer for all GeForce cards*

The package installs a copy of all the GeForce, NV, and Titan kexts. All of them include all of the most common Device ID's. So if you're having trouble changing your resolution, or you want to get Core Image and Quartz Extreme working, this package might do the trick for you!

Please keep in mind that I have not tested this on every single GeForce card. But it SHOULD work on most modern cards, which include cards in the 5xxx through 7xxx range. If you have anything older, then this may or may not work. And if you have an 8xxx card, this will NOT work. Also, this may or may not work if your card has 512MB of RAM. You display might work the first time you reboot, but not the second time. If you have a 512 card, and want to try this out then be my guest wink.gif


If you use this package, please report any success or failure so I can update this thread and get a list of supported/unsupported cards going.

This is the first time I've ever made a package and released it, so I cannot guarantee that this will work on your system, and/or that it will install correctly on your system. I've installed this on two different computers so far and it worked like a charm on both. So if you think you are tech savy, be sure to keep an eye on the installer log and let me know of any bugs you spot.

Download the package here


Working Cards:
7600 GT PCI-E
7300 LE PCI-E
5500
7950GT (Sometimes hangs at black screen, but a reboot will fix that.)
6800XT
Go53xx




*All modern GeForce cards, I.E. 5 series through 7 series. 8 Series cards are not supported.
