I'd not recommend to select any driver(s) then doing an install. Install drivers then OS X is running.

It is working cos all the drivers included in the DVD are loaded upon boot regardless are they needed or not. Unfortunately if you install all the drivers available on the DVD, the trick will not work. OS X will not boot.

ah ok, then i'll install osx again only with PS2 driver ...

 

But how do i know which drivers i need for my hardware?!

 

for example, the graphic ... NVInject or NVEnable ? which on is the best for me?!

 

and audio: On Microsoft i use a HDA Driver, so which one is the best for me?

 

Network is not so important for me, more audio and video (cause i'll work with Ableton live :)

 

Hope someone can help me

Search the forum!

Though I don't know for sure if the card you have is supported, but if it is... Start by adding GraphicsEnabler=Yes option com.apple.Boot.plist in /Extra. If it doesn't work, try using EFI string placed to the above file in "device-properties" section. If that doesn't work too, install Nvenabler (for Snow Leopard) or ATY_init/CoreVidia for (Leopard).

VoodooHDA usually works best.

tried adding "GraphicsEnabler=Yes" but I get a message: "You need to restart your comptuter. Hold down the Power button until it turns off, then pres the power button again" -.-

 

--edit2--

 

i installed NVEnabler, but if i do a normal boot, i get a panic

 

but if i boot in save-mode (-x) all is working =0 Graphic is fast (but wrong resolution)

 

Whats wrong?!

 

--/edit--

 

ok thanks

 

one more problem: i've got 3 usb ports .. one is "eSATA & USB", the other two are normal ports (i think it's a internal hub ore something) ...

 

But only the "esata & usb" port is working, the other don't seem to be "powered on" (the usb-stick's LED don't shine)

So, i installed the CUDA drivers and the nvidia drivers from nvidia.com .. bus still bad resolution >.<

 

Graphic-Acceleration is working (minmizin windows is smooth and videos, too)

 

But Resolution is still 1024 × 768 ...

 

Is it possible to increase the resolution to full-hd ? (or even 1440x900 or something .. but i've got a full-hd screen)
