I recently just installe iDeneb 10.5.7 on my PC which is
Intel Core 2 Duo E6300
nVidia 7600GT 256mb
Ram 1GB
Foxconn 775socket

The installation of both programmes went great and I rebooted like it asked me to.

The problems started when I launched iMovie when it says that I need a more powerful graphics card to let it launch. So when this message came up and it quickly closed down. Is there a way around this without buying a new graphics card.

My other problem was in Keynote where I click play to start my presentation. It fades to black but then quickly fades back to the desktop with a message popping up asking me to turn down my graphics settings. I did this and I went to 800x600 resolution with "thousands" of colours and I got the exact same message.

Any help would be grateful. And Thanks In Advanced.

Well any ideas then...

Everyone seems to be a bit blank????

If it's any consolation, I can't even get iLife09 to install on my hack running iatkos v7 (10.5.7). The ****ing installer keeps asking for 10.5.5. Something is wrong with the software.
About iWork, I am surprised - it runs well on an integrated gma950 (mine) with all transitions enabled. Please check if QE and Ci are working on your machine - Apple apps seem to need those to run properly. If they aren't, figure out how to enable them from the drivers forum here.
But if they are, it needs more skill than I have - probably doing some low level terminal fiddling. Sorry if that is of no use.

yo... checked the about this mac, more information, under graphics/displays.... u must see that CI/QE supported... if not tried harder...

i think you need to have CI/QE to work with iMovie...

I was using Geforce FX5500, 6600GT and also 6800GS without any problems... not need to change your graphics card but ensure that CI/QE is turned on...

You need a Quartz Extreme compatible card to use certain features of iLife like iVideo. Your card should be compatible but do you have the driver loaded for it ? Are you getting the correct native resolution when you boot or do you need to enter "Graphics Mode" as an option on start up? Perhaps you need the correct Kext loaded.

As an aside iLife 09 works fine apart from iMovie on my version of OS X, which boots from a 80gb USB drive. I'm using Flash OSX Leopard 10.5.6 for Pen Drive. Only thing I have a problem with is iWork 09 which i mentioned in another thread.

Hope you get it working. No hope for me with iMovie unfortunately as there is no support for the ATI 4850 from Apple

Have you checked System Profiler to see if your graphics card has Quartz Extreme and Core Image QE/CI Enabled? That should do the trick. If not we can talk you through the process of getting your card up and running.

I do have QE/CI supported natively by OSX (I am using Quadro NVS 140M, and the System Profiler reports quartz enabled).

Pages is still opening blank pages.

Update:

No. The System profiler does not show that now. I *had* QE/CI working under 10.6.0. Update to 10.6.1 killed it. Maybe it was a bug all along.

Damn. I am going to reinstall to 10.6.0 and see if that helps.

See this post for a possible solution (in com.apple.Boot.plist) :
QE/CI

This may work for some graphics cards.

you could also try to get latest SMBios
