i cant find drivers for this card anywhere. like my display is ok but i cant choose higher then 85 hertz for the monitor and it kills my eye. i have got use to 120 hz. there is only a few resalotions i can choose froom and the really kill my eyes since they can only use 60 hz. so what can i do if there just isnt any drivers?

when i look at the system profiler it shows my card being x1300 instead of x1550. whats up with that?
should i download the ati drivers from this site? http://diabolik1605.com/DHF/iATi.html
wow i just tried to hit ctrl v and it didn't do anything. something tells me keyboard short cuts isn't the same on mac.
oh also if i do install that one how to i do it i downloaded it and it said

Install the 10.4.9 ATi kexts and NatitX1300.kext

After installation do a Permissions Repair in Disk Utility.

If you dont have Quartz Extreme or Core Image:

Edit the ATIRadeonX1000.kext to have your Device-ID included.
(IOPCIMATCH in the info.plist is what your looking for)

i dont really get any of that since im a newbie to the mac thing. so if thats what i need to do then can someone dumb that down fer me

please help..

I really need something better then 85hz paleeease someone help. also i would like to use somthing more then 1024x768 and when i do that it will only let me use 60hz and that is heck on my eyes please please help me out!

bumpity bump bump........... bump...

I also have the 1550 and it is recognized as the 1300, I to am having the same issue as you. Too bad no one has responded to your pleas for help on this issue!

there isn't any solution yet for ati cards with device id 7183.....!

hi. x1550 and x1300 use the same chip. so they're [cards] almost equal

Well has anyone figured anything out yet?

I guess not.....

I'm trying to get QE/CI working on one of these ATI x1550 512mb, too, and I'm not having much luck either.

Already tried changing Device IDs and whatever to no avail.

Guess we just have to see if anyone ever comes up with a working solution, because there doesn't seem to be one at the moment.
