Check in System/Library/Extensions for GeForce.kext NVDANV40HAL.kext NVDARESMAN.kext these should be present for GeForce 7xxx series GFX cards..... Also if Nitat.kext and Titan.kext and MacVidia.kext are present remove them...... Repair Permissions on System/Library/Extensions via Terminal sudo chown -R root:wheel System/Library/Extensions sudo chmod -R 755 System/Library/Extensions reboot with -v -f.......and report what happens.......

verdant Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 it has GeForce.kext, NVDARESMAN.kext, but not nvdanv40.kext, it has NVDANV40Hal.kext, what should i do? That is OK.....just difference in typing.....I presume you have confirmed that both the GFX card and Monitor are capable of the resolution you wish to switch too....?
