Hey All,

 

I've been trying for ages to get my x800GT working, then I remembered I flashed it to an x800GTO (It has an R480 core :))

 

So, I whipped out my GPU's bios CD and restored it, patched the ATIRadeon9700.kext for my device ID, and BOOM!

 

QT and CI both enabled.

 

I'm yet to change the resolution. There were some mouse artifacts, but I just installed Mousepose and that fixes it.

 

Does anyone know how to set the refresh rate any higher than 60?

 

Thanks :)

I have had success with a Sapphire x850gt, which is said to be unsupported by all hacks. Well that's not true. I used the callisto kext's and the atiradeon9700 and atiradeon9700ga kexts that i modified myself to match the device id of my card and got res, refresh rate changing, QE and Cl all working. Of course there are the usual mouse artifacts, but installing mouse locator solved that problem quick and painlessly.

 

I used the x800 guide from in the graphics cards section of the forum. It is stickied.
