Hi, I just bought the XFX 6670 2GB (see link from Best Buy) . I can't get my system to fully recognize the card. It'll boot, but isn't fully functional. My current org.chameleon.Boot.plist is below. I've tried several variations, in this form it'll let me pick a few resolutions (not the 1920x1080 I want), and the screen shows the loading Apple screen the whole time, but if I screen share into the computer from my Macbook Pro, I can see the desktop and use the machine. I checked other 6670 forums, but maybe I'm missing something. Maybe it's because I have the 2GB version? OR maybe it's XFX's 6670? I'm not sure. System works with no problem with the 5450, and works with the 5770 "batmobile" (though I have issues with the 5770, but that's for another day). I'd REALLY appreciate any help! Thank you!
