Ethan94 Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 I have intel integrated graphics i845 aka 82845G/GL/GE/PE/GV and the only resolution it will allow me to use is 1024x768 but I have a 26" widescreen tv I use it on so I was wondering how I could get it to show the other options. I believe the resolution should be either 1366x768 or 1280x720 Here's the specifics: VRAM (Total): 64 MB of shared system memory Vendor: Intel (0x8086) Device ID: 0x2562 Revision ID: 0x0003 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/161803-need-widescreen-res-on-82845gglgepegv/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
SticMAC™ Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 This is the package I used for an old P4 mainboard, you can try it but I don't think the resolution will go THAT high!

Ethan94 Posted April 13, 2009 Author Share Posted April 13, 2009 Hmm I installed them with kext helper, logged in as root, but it will still only let me choose 1024x768. Kext helper won't accept my root password when I'm on any other user account so that's why I had at relogin. I dunno if that is what caused the problem or not.

amantonas Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 That kext didn't work. I'm pretty sure we need the i845 kext, not the i830 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/161803-need-widescreen-res-on-82845gglgepegv/#findComment-1239951 Share on other sites More sharing options...
