Can't get nVidia GeForce 8600 GT (256 mb) to work on my MD 8833 (iAtkos S3 10.6.3)

Hi guys

 

I recently bought a Medion MD 8833, and I managed to install iATKOS S3 (10.6.3) on it. I've sound and even my Wi-Fi works, but the problem is my video card.

 

I've a nVidia GeForce 8600 GT (256 mb) and after my boot logo there's always a blank dark screen. (So no kernel panics).

 

Things I tried:

-add EFI string to com.boot.plist (generated with OSX86 Utitlity Tool) on my Snow Leopard

-Install Natit

-installed some .kexts (after install)

-installed some .kexts (during install)

-Manual added only a new resolution in my com.boot.plist. without adding the VideoCardIDstring (After this I have a new resolution but screensaver and dragNdrop-graphics are crappy).

 

Nothing worked and I always get this blank dark screen after the boot logo.

So I've seen a few guys who handled this video card so could anyone tell me how to do this? I'm already trying this for days and I looked all over the internet but I can't get this thing to work.

 

 

Thanks in advance !!
