I start over again the setup and follow exactly your guide and I use the older version of "FakeSMC rev.319" and use the fix cmos reset kext you linked, and now can boot without the boot cd and I fixed the annoying cmos reset :D

 

so my next step is now find the way to get my HD 4850 works... ;)

 

ATI QE_CI exotic cards patch for 10.6.4 not working for my card... :(

trying another...

I just got a 5770, hope it works. :)

 

Do I need to get some kext for the card?

 

Thanks.

 

 

you have two ways

 

first way

 

using ATY_INIT KEXT

 

http://www.mediafire.com/?3chjfxra57u02ix

 

then restart

 

and usinf update

 

to install gfx update 1 after updating to 10..6.4

 

this if you want only two display

 

if you want three display

 

try this

 

second way

 

use this boot file

 

http://redirectingat.com/?id=292X457&x...9646%26st%3D460

 

replace it with one in root

 

then add graphicsenabler to boot plist

what is your card brand

 

can you setup new install :blink:

 

card is sapphire 4770...

 

going to setup new install later...

 

when the screen goes wrong, i see the desktop through VNC, i check the graphic.. the chipset model is Unknow, VRAM=256mb...

 

is it must install the graphic update from apple?

 

I am so tired... ;)
