BerggreenDK Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Hi there, I am desperately trying to get a nVidia 8600 GT 512 MB to show something in hardware accelerated mode. Its working in safemode (boot with -x), my network works too. But 10.6.3 upgraded to 10.6.6 ... i just cant figure out what sort of setting I am missing. I've tried tonyx86's nVidia enabler, I've added Kexts myself. I've tried to use EFI 1.1 to add device. I'm pretty stuck now. I could really use some advice. Btw. I am using the DELL Inspiron 530 ISO, as its a DELL Vostro 200 machine I am trying to boot. It has a Intel Core2Duo E8400 if that has anything to say? I've tried to make a restore of the first Vostro 200 I've installed with same configuration. Except its a 8800 GTS and it runs great. The CPU there is a E6850 I think. But thats the only difference. So... do I need to patch for the "better CPU" (same 3.0 Ghz both) or is the more lame graphiccard that gives me the trouble? I am NOT very experienced with KEXTS etc. so I could really use some "newbie" explanation.
