Hi I need help getting my HD 6770 to work on 10.6.7, have tried TonyMacs install for 6000 series but the 6770 doesn't let my PC boot with Chimera.

That is because the HD6770 is a rebadge of the HD5770 (and the HD6750 is a rebadge of the HD6750). Treat it as HD5770 (or HD5750); not what it's been rebadged as. The rather problematical issue is that you'll need different enablers/injectors for Snow due to this tactic by AMD, but may not need any for Lion, oddly enough.

So how do I need to treat the 6770 sinds it is not OOB? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
