xgportal Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 But still no QE? I wonder how it comes that Natit loads, but gives no QE? It is a 512Mb card and I just dropped Natit_Dual 0.02 in. See attached file for proof. Any help would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
masa Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 i think can NOT say "working" yet. _np is working for this issue, we should waiting and offer test result when _np need it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xgportal Posted March 18, 2007 Author Share Posted March 18, 2007 I don't see Geforce.kext in any folder? I only have the ones (see attachement) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiaboliK Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 I don't see Geforce.kext in any folder? I only have the ones (see attachement) well then thats why you get no qe/ci or lockups when using natit and a 512mb NVidia card get a geforce.kext from a 10.4.8 or 10.4.9 COMBO update from apple and extract them with pacifist.

masa Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 (edited) edit the GeForce.kext to include your device id to get qe/ci Nvidia 512M cards don't work(QE/CI) yet, isn't it? or 7950GT is special? i found it in Titian HCL: Calibre 790+ (GeForce 7950 GT) PCIe Sparkle/Calibre 0x0291 512MB Dropped it in, worked great. No kext editing required. Only one port works at a time. Edited March 18, 2007 by masa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fozzylyon Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 So the best that can be expected from a 7950 w/512MB is that it'll work and only detect 256MB? And SLI won't happen at all since nVidia hasn't created the driver for macs, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gotoh Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 SLI will probably not happen, but 512Mb can be fully working with QE/CI with ROM mod... check at macvidia... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaco Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Great news - what about GeForce 7600 GS OC 512 MB DDR2 (AGP), any fix for that yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manowar Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 SLI will probably not happen, but 512Mb can be fully working with QE/CI with ROM mod...check at macvidia... Thanks to all u guys I have my osx 10.4.9 up and running on a 650 sli evga 7950 gt full qe/ci. I flashed my 7950gt with the manli 7950gt bios updated with the gotoh method and edit geforce nvdaresman and nvdanv40hal to only include the device id's for my card after installing nvinject. now if i could get the sata and network going on the nvidia 650 chipset it would be great!! Great job guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richinnewzealand Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Hit to all, having read through the posts, I might wonder if there is any possibility to run a 7950 gx2 on my 10.5.2 build? Any comments and suggestions would be highly appreciated. Cheers, Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicpon Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 I have the same problem. Have 10.5.2 loaded and when I boot with -v -x it loads, but no Quartz. It even says that display is not connected, which is totally weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmisavenko Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 I heard about flashing but can I flash my 7950GT using MacOS? Windows became unavailable after Kalyway 10.5.2 Setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comatron Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 i have a gainward bliss 7950gt 512 mb runnin with qe/ci now. used this "512MB ROM Patcher.zip" from that "http://nvinject.free.fr/downloads.php" site on my own bios - on the same site you´ll find the latest nvinject for 512 mb cards. use "http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/" to have a DOS boot cd which can handle USB sticks to read/write your bios. use this "http://www.mvktech.net/content/view/15/37/" as a guide HOW to read/flash your bios - AND the same site for getting your bios if you lose it anyhow. the card is still usuable under windows. just drop nvinject (mentioned above) in your kextfolder - et voila - easy as sh*t and workx!

dmisavenko Posted December 20, 2008 Share Posted December 20, 2008 Thanks for advice. Mentioned CD Image doesn't work properly with my flash drive so I'll look for another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
