citizen_kane Posted September 6, 2008 Share Posted September 6, 2008 Hello. I have gotten my NVIDIA Quadro FX 570M graphics card functioning on Kalway Leopard 10.5.2 using the driver number 41 from this page: http://scottdangel.com/blog/?page_id=20 I am now enjoying my 1920x1200 resolution flawlessly, and am very happy about that. However, I do not seem to get the HDMI output on my computer to work. When I connect the cable, my external display notices a signal, but remains black. Leopard also notices that I have connected a cable, and in the display prefs I can arrange my views, mirror the screens and what have you. However, I do not get a visual. If I let my external display be the primary monitor, and mirror the displays, my laptop screen turns black as well. Does anyone have any hints on have to solve this problem? I would be very pleased if this were to come out working. Regards, Espen from Norway. My specs are as following: HP Compaq 8510w Mobile Workstation Intel Core 2 Duo T7700, 2,4GHz 4gb RAM OS: Windows XP Professional dual Kalway Leopard 10.5.2 -- WORKING Graphics: NVIDIA Quadro FX 570M -- WORKING except external display Audio: Intel AD1981HD -- WORKING except headphones port Wireless: Intel Wireless 4965AGN -- NOT WORKING Ethernet: Intel 82566MM Gigabit -- NOT WORKING Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kasakka Posted September 6, 2008 Share Posted September 6, 2008 I had similar problems trying to get my 8800GT to output to my HDTV. The TV was recognized just fine and both outputs were definitely working because I got picture on my second monitor when using the same DVI output I had used for the HDTV. I tried fiddling with the HDTV resolutions in System Preferences -> Displays for a while and would eventually get a really dark image on screen. For some reason on OSX the HDTV display had been reset to weird picture settings, basically everything on zero. I have no idea why but after changing settings it has worked just fine.

defn Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Hey Kane, How did you get this working? I just get a black screen at boot. I've tried a bunch of different configurations, but nothing is working. Please help the rest of us with the 570M. Devin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
citizen_kane Posted October 7, 2008 Author Share Posted October 7, 2008 Hey defn. I didn't get it to work. I think the solution lies in this thread: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=103549 but I haven't been able to get it up and working. I am still working on it, and please report here if you have any luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
