nobb1x Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 sorry for the newbie question, i have a geforce go6200 on my notebook, it wont work with any installer and doing the ioreg thing i obtain an empty file. The card is working only in vesa mode, maybe this the source of the problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devZero Posted July 8, 2008 Author Share Posted July 8, 2008 Doesn't EFI Explorer do all this already for a TON of cards?I just used it to do my 7600GT! The problem with EFI explorer is that you must have a working system. This project aims to setup efi strings during the install process. Of course, you can obviously use it with an existing install, but my original intentions was for use during the dvd installer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zubi Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 I hava an Nvidia Quadro NVS 140. Device ID 10de:0429. I tried both version of the command provided and I still got a blank txt file so here is my entire ioreg output. I hope the surgery goes well. ioreg.txt update: Just tried version 1 and I got a kernal panic. Apparently the quadro is based upon the 8400 chipset. so Maybe that would work for me as well, I will try version 2 next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devZero Posted July 12, 2008 Author Share Posted July 12, 2008 Well, back from surgery. I have a lot of catching up to do. The installer is one of my priorities, as well as my DVD release. I've been on meds that make me sleep all week. I will begin working on Beta 2 again this week, and hope to have it completed very very soon. Thanks to all who have been watching this post, and those who wished me luck on my surgery. I've now got 8 screws, and a metal plate in my leg.

kavalir Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 Hello DevZero, lucky to see you back .. hope your cybernetic leg will help you with creating efi installer;).. btw I have still no luck with ATI 3650 512mb, tried almost everything, still no work. Should I wait for your installer, or buy Nvidia ? .. I need 3 LCDs, and it seems lot of people successfully set up two NV cards with EFI strings..

Panshie Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Hi, work great on my 8800GTS 320MB. The only probles is that is 320MB and not 640MB. I used GFX string before and only read 256MB of VRAM, but never could make it read 320MB. What really eat my brain is not been able to use the TV/Out, it only works if I detach my monitor and turn on the PC, but when it have to load de desktop it stop working. is there any way I can fix that? I don't ask you to go and find me an answer, just give me a push in the right direction if you have an idea and I try to get things working. There are several people who have the same problem in leopard, but I could not find a solution yet. Thank you very much. By the way, I have a Q6600 on a P5K-E and everithing working great (Kalyway 10.5.2) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloodworth Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 I've tried your package, and now instead of the system hanging after loading nvidia stuffs, I get a message in multiple languages that says "You need to restart your computer. Hold down the Power button for several seconds or press the Restart button." even after restarting/cold booting several times. To me this seems like progress get my card to finally work, though this certainly won't do. I've got a 8800gts 320MB (MSI OC), and I selected the 8800gts option when I installed. If anyones knows if there's something I can do, your help would be appreciated. Meanwhile I'll wait for version beta 2 of this and try again... @Panshie I believe I read somewhere that Mac only supports 2 outputs per card, so you can either have 2 DVI outs or 1 DVI outs and 1 tv out, but you have to mess with the nvcaps and such and then I believe that the tv out ends up being the primary/first display? I may be wrong, someone with more knowledge can feel free to correct me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
