I followed again the guide step by step. After installed mac os x 10.6.6 update and (without rebooting) installed IOUSBRollback, after reboot I have black screen just before entering the desktop.

I think it's not a kernel panic, because I can hear the hard disk continue loading.

 

How can I fix the black screen problem?

 

 

me too i got a black screen after rebooting can anyone help us? white_apple_x86? bas123?? thanks

I have a problem.

 

I installed osx retail 10.6 with EFI Empire.

 

Install HD500Inject, ati kexts and modify my boot.plist

 

Updated to 10.6.6

 

If i load OSX with EFI Empire CD, it loads ok, ATI works perfectly, resolutions QE...

 

But, when i load without CD, i have this screen, everything loads ok, nothing KP

What can i do???

I don't know a solution, but what connection do you use. (ge.: hdmi, vga, dvi,...) because i use a laptop and that uses an internal connection. I can't use any screen trough hdmi or vga.

I had the same issue, sounded like the system was still running but nothing was showing on the screen. Solved the problem by simply using the DVI output from my graphics card rather than the vga. Hope this solves the problem for you.

I did it. All graphics functions with AMD x64 without Empire EFI Cd.

 

Bootloader: Chameleon v2 RC3 PCEFI 10.4 (same as CD)

Kernel: mach_kernel.test7

 

ATIinjector, ATY_Init & ATIFramebuffer instaled. Rom in \Extra.

 

On boot.plist nothing change. No AtiFB, no Graphics enabler ...

 

Works on Snow Leopard retail 10.6.6, resolutions, QE enabled....

 

I connect it with HDMI. But i havent sound with it.

 

Bye.

I follow the instruction and all steps passed.

 

However, there is no resolution selection and the Graphics/Display section in System Profiler shows that the graphic card cannot be recognized. (The display still works but no QE/CI)

 

My Card is HD5500 with device ID 0x68da1002.

 

Any help?

 

Thanks!

This is my guide to enable QE on my XFX ATI HD5450 with AMD.

 

1- Download & burn EmpireEFI 1085 AMD Download

2- Install 10.6 Snow Leopard Retail DVD with Empire EFI CD

3- Reboot with Empire EFI CD, copy boot file from Empire CD and copy mach_kernel.test7 on root. Create \Extra\ & copy com.apple.Boot.plist Create \Extra\Extensions and copy all kexts located on Empire EFI CD\Extra\Preboot.dmg, if you need other kexts copy it too.

4- Download All_in_one.zip. Install ATI HD Injector, copy rom to \extra and install kexts with kexthelper.

5- Reboot and test if OSX loads correctly. Now run ComboUpdate 10.6.6. Install 10.6.4 USB (with [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] or here)

6- Reboot and ATI may work correctly with QE, resolutions....

 

I have this to enable my ati card on AMD.

 

This is my com.apple.Boot.plist
