agntsgotnosecret Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Here is a list of my hardware and install method: Motherboard: GA-EP45-UD3R Processor: Q6600 @ 3.3 GHz Video Card: EVGA nVidia GeForce 9500 GT Cooling: Arctic Freezer Pro 7 DVD-ROM: LG 20x Sata DVD Burner Hard Drive: WD 320 GB SATA II 16 MB Cache grub-dfe --> Retail Mac OS X Leopard (10.5.6 + software updates) I recently purchased a 24" LCD that has a native resolution of 1920x1080. Prior to this, I had a 21" LCD which I'm assuming had a different native resolution. Anyway, my dilemma lies with games and video resolution. In particular, Warcraft III. I had Warcraft III installed and running perfectly with the 21" + Leopard combo, but when I reinstalled Leopard with the 24" monitor, the game launches and I get sound, but the video is completely black. A signal is present, and I hear the game's audio, but the screen is completely black. Pressing Command+M does not minimize the application, and I essentially am unable to return to the desktop and I have to forcefully reboot. I didn't want to investigate the dual-boot Vista/Leopard route as installing an entire operating system for one game seems a bit silly. I've tried changing the native resolution in OS X to no avail. Any ideas? EDIT: The problem appears to be related to the video kext. 2/16/09 12:38:00 AM Warcraft III[144] Error loading /System/Library/Extensions/GeForceGA.plugin/Contents/MacOS/GeForceGA: dlopen(/System/Library/Extensions/GeForceGA.plugin/Contents/MacOS/GeForceGA, 262): no suitable image found.
