1233666666 Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 Hey All, I just got OS X installed! yay! I'm just wondering if there's any support for the Powercolor/ATi x800GT PCI-e gfx? It's got 256mb of VRAM and an R340 (I think) core. Thanks. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/13850-x800gt/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
quixos Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 i used the koverg patching method to get my x800gt pcie card working. http://forum.osx86project.org/index.php?showtopic=10415&st=0 you must follow the directions exactly. yeah, yeah, i know. but i goofed up the first time despite being superior at following directions. you will not be able to change your resolutions for games, or itunes visualizations etc. until omni finishes his framebuffer hack. so if you are using gma900compat vid, you will probably be happier with that for now. but it's great to do of course!

1233666666 Posted April 3, 2006 Author Share Posted April 3, 2006 Hey, I've already tried that. It doesn't work for me. I even tried loading the kext file after I'd finished, and it didn't work Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/13850-x800gt/#findComment-88351 Share on other sites More sharing options...
