Rufus T. Firefly Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 Need some help on this I installed it and all I got was a black screen when booting into OSX86. I've been trying like hell to get this card to work and nothing seems to help I'm damn stupid when it comes to terminal,.. but if need be I could do it Any help would be really appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
us1111 Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 Hmmm.. I'm thinking about buying a new videocard to get my OSX running smoothly.. I can get this card for about $25 more than the recommended xfx 7300GT: "XFX GeForce 7600GS 256MB PCI-E DDR2 Retail PVT73PUDJ3". Now if the 7600GS does not work as does my internal 6100, I'm not helped at all.. Can anyone confirm that the 7600GS is so hard to configure?

Rufus T. Firefly Posted July 1, 2007 Author Share Posted July 1, 2007 well I figured it out i have a 512mb card and those don't work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vasfed Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 well I figured it out i have a 512mb card and those don't work those do work, but only after patching firmware i managed to get Ci+Qx on an Asus 7600GS 512 Mb, but it's a bit scary - patching the firmware youself and then loading in into rom of card... if you want, i'll post my patched rom, and some instructions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greatchinu Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 do drivers for XFX 256 mb geforce 7600 GT exist to enable QE/CI i think macvidia drivers are good but my JaS 10.4.6 OS X 86 could be really awesome with QE/CI enabled. i wonder if this is wt causes many of my apps like dvd player,vlc,etc... crash when trying to play a video(flv mostly) or is it a codec problem nevertheless i would like to hv it enabled in my OS X86 i hv heard of the natit driver v 0.02 workin but they need a 10.4.8 system... can smone help me out here pls.??? thanks bye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Headrush69 Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 Pretty sure MacVidia drivers still doesn't provide QE/CI. Your best bet is bite the bullet and get a more up to date DVD and then use Natit or Titan and enjoy QE/CI Post your hardware specs is always helpful.
