Rippie Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 Hello all, I know there most likely is 1000 post's regarding this problem here, but now after sitting and installing and messing around i need a point in the right direction. I have a ATI Radeon Mobility X1600 071c5 graphics card, and trying to find a kext somewhere and how to install it... Is it just so simple so delete the old ATI* kext files under System/Library/Extentions and then copy in the new ones and load them ? or is there more to it. At the moment i do not have windows on this laptop. Really hope someone can help me.

Rippie Posted December 25, 2008 Author Share Posted December 25, 2008 Thank you very much, I most likely have to add in my own EDID, so have to find out how to do that too. would you care to help me with the process ?
