Does anyone know if there is a driver for the ATi Radeon 9600 (AGP card)? The ATI HD driver included in the iATKOS disk is working choppily, but MUCH better than without a driver at all. I just want to know if there's a way to get some better graphics... Just going to use this Hackintosh to store my music and use it as a backup drive, basically. Nothing major, just would like to be able to type smoothly and not have artifacts left wherever I move my mouse :rolleyes:

1024x768

 

I was able to locate some old driver thats not supported anymore (forget the name now) which gave me a list of resolutions however anytime I selected anything other than 1024x768 my TV screen would go blank (this is on a 720p TV btw).

 

So now I'm back at square one! This is the only thing preventing me from getting rid of Windows on this PC!

yeah i managed to get OSX 10.5.6 iPC running on my rig with Natit driver. But I also only have 1024x768. I just can't work in that resolution. Wondering whether to buy a supported Nvidia card on ebay... btw my pc is

 

Intel Pentium 4 2.8GHz with HT

Gigabyte 8IPE 1000 Pro 2 mobo

2Gb Ram

ATI Radeon 9600XT 256Mb gfx

On board AC97 sound (works) & Intel Pro ethernet (works)

 

I installed Voodoo Kernel with Intel ICHx chipset driver & Natit video driver.

To have OpenGL and probable QE/CI on cards 9600-9800 you need to replace

ATIRadeon9700GLDriver.bundle/Contents/MacOS/ATIRadeon9700GLDriver by

ATIRadeonX1000GLDriver.bundle/Contents/MacOS/ATIRadeonX1000GLDriver and rename it to 9700.

This need to be done because in Leo ATIRadeon9700GLDriver is PowerPC only while X1000 is true Intel.
