i fixed one issue which is the resolution but still the video profiler is wrong and isn't givin me a good performance

Display:

 Type:	GPU
 Bus:	Built-In
 VRAM (Total):	64 MB of Shared System Memory
 Vendor:	Intel (0x8086)
 Device ID:	0x2a02
 Revision ID:	0x000c
 Kernel Extension Info:	No Kext Loaded
 Displays:
Display:
 Resolution:	1280 x 800
 Pixel Depth:	32-Bit Color (ARGB8888)
 Main Display:	Yes
 Mirror:	Off
 Online:	Yes

 

 

 

what i did for any one who need it is open the file: /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.Boot.plist

 

Open the file, and add these two lines

 

<key>Graphics Mode</key>

<string>1280x800x32</string>

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://
www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
		<key>kernel</key>
		<string>mach_kernel</string>
		<key>Kernel Flags</key>
		<string></string>
		<key>Graphics Mode</key>
		<string>1280x800x32</string>
</dict>
</plist>

 

 

 

then save it and done :(

com'on guys , i know that there are a lot of people use this Video Card and working well

 

 

i wanna know how to do it in SL & i already tried everything i know

 

Mine is working fine without making any changes or adding anything. Basically stock drivers, and dsdt.aml. If you add or modify the original kext in Leopard/Snow Leopard you end up with more problems then you need.
