73grandam Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Hey guys, I read online that the Sapphire 5450 was fully compatible with snow leopard for hackintoshs. I just recently finished my dc5750 hackintosh and tried everything i knew possible to get it to work. Nothing has worked yet. It is an amd ystem with 2gb of ram, the onboard video kinda sucks thats why i need this card to work. It gives me 1024x768 support with no qe/ci support. It says it only has 256mb of vram but its a 1bg card. PLEASE HELP!! I NEED THIS TO WORK SO BADLY!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thunderbolt Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Try using kabyls boot file, I have the same Sapphire HD 5450 1 GB and a Sapphire HD 6750 2GB (6750 does not work) , 5450 is supported. Have you updated to 10.6.8 ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My HD 5450 runs like a charm on 10.6.8 but now I am removing SL as it does not support 6750 and this the card I am using now so going back to windows on the desktop.

macdav Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 Depends on which model of this card you are talking about and what bootloader you are using. Support for the 1GB version of the Sapphire 5450 was only added very recently to Chameleon after I requested it :- http://forge.voodooprojects.org/p/chameleon/issues/286/ http://forge.voodooprojects.org/p/chameleon/source/commit/2097/ So you need to be running at least version 2097 of Chameleon if you want to use GraphicEnabler=Yes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
