davejones Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 Hi guys, I am in desperate need of some help on my particular problem. Since upgrading from 10.6.2 to 10.6.3, I have totally lost all QE/CI on my Asus 8800GT TOP (512MB). When I look under Graphics in System Profiler it just shows a 32MB Nvidia device, however under 10.6.2 it shows correctly as a 512MB nVidia 8800GT. I have also lost the transparency effect in OSX, as well as all the smooth animations that happen when you open Applications or Utilities. So far I have tried different Chameleon packages, complete reinstalls of OX, EFI strings (under Extra folder as well as Library/System Preferances etc), different ports on the graphics card (just displays a black background), NVinstallers etc. But all this always results in the same problem Please can anyone shed any light on this?... It works 100% perfect under 10.6.2, but as soon as I upgrade to 10.6.3 (I do update the SleepEnabler kext upon the upgrade) everything messes up on the graphics card settings (I do still get 1920x1080 resolution though). Cheers, davejones P.S. "Tseug's" guide was used to install OSX 10.6 on my GA-P35-DS4 v2.1 perfectly! Q6600 3.0GHz, 8GB DDR2 1000GHz, Asus 8800GT TOP 512MB (works normally, apart from under 10.6.3).

piyokos Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 I would make sure you don't have any competing injectors (don't run NVinject and NVinstaller at once, etc), try porting all Geforce and NVIDIA kexts from 10.6.2 to 10.6.3, post your gpu vendor/product id and motherboard, try generating your own DSDT with DSDT patcher, activate it and if that doesn't work you can maybe post it here.

hiqu Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 I would make sure you don't have any competing injectors (don't run NVinject and NVinstaller at once, etc), try porting all Geforce and NVIDIA kexts from 10.6.2 to 10.6.3, post your gpu vendor/product id and motherboard, try generating your own DSDT with DSDT patcher, activate it and if that doesn't work you can maybe post it here. One thing at a time. First try to replace all NVDA* and GeForce* kexts from 10.6.2 in 10.6.3 and see if it works. Any injector you already use should still work.
