jhoule Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 Hey everyone. I'm curious if there is a way to set the resolution of the mac osx startup (loading) screen. The white one, with the grey apple logo. I realize this is hardly an important feature. But. I've had my hackintosh for just about a year now trouble free. And though I can't say the stretched screen really bothers me for the 10 seconds of loading...it would be cool if I could change it. Without breaking something. Anyone?
