Wow. OSX just really hates me.

GraphicsEnabler=yes, with PciRoot=1 is on.

Device ID's are in 50hal and Resman.

The GT240's device ID is 0x0ca3.

QE/CI not working... nothing new there.

W. T. F. am I doing wrong?

You're not doing anything wrong.

It's simply not working on 10.6.4 obviously.

 

( I think )

Figured it out. My UID was 1 so I had no idea that I had to set it up in com.apple.boot.plist with PCIRootUID=1.

You guys seriously need to cover this issue, I sold my GT9400 and bought a gt240 BECAUSE I THOUGHT IT DIDNT WORK. If I had known this earlier... No point in crying over spilled milk.

Also, I can confirm that this card is dual screen compatible. HDMI->DVI converter as primary and VGA secondary.

But now I cant boot into 64bit with arch=x86_64 kernal flag. And HD videos are really laggy despite having QE/CI enabled. Not an ISP problem. Just blurry and choppy. Everything else is great.

 

Also, According to CineBench, OpenGL is fine, so is quartz, but User Interface Test scored a 13.54 and Elements scored a 13.54 at 62.13 refresh/sec...

What should I do..?

I got GigaByte nVidia GT 240 1GB DDR3 and QE/CI actived by default in both 32 + 64 bits

 

I think you need a booloader, let try Valv or aserebln or RC4 or RC5

 

Several things you can try:

MUST REMOVE/DELETE ALL INJECTORS IN /System/Library/Extension and only GraphicsEnabler set to Yes

Try to use and not to use PciRoot=1 (I don't have this)

I don't added any Device ID to the drivers ( I left it default, don't care if your device id is in nVidia driver's plist )
