davidb8 Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 iv installed iatkos s3 and everything seems to work apart from the resolution only being 1024x768. im still looking for a resolution fix i am using gma4500m if yuo know where i can find it please let me know. before i install anything though i want to backup my clean install. last time i did it with disc utility but it wouldnt let me restore the backup later on so i had to re-install how can i make a backup that will work?! what setting do i need to pick when making a backup so it will restore if i need it, i think it gave an error saying the img needed to be checked or something, please help because if i install the wrong kext i wont be able to boot at all and im about ready for giving up on this project.

ifrit05 Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 You re-installed for no reason. If you open Disk Utility, select the Image in the sidebar, and click on Images > Scan for restore. After that you can perform a restore as you were trying to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ifrit05 Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Look around on Kexts.com, there are some drivers for this card. Some work, some don't, its a hit and miss. I can't remember what Kext I used for my buddy's laptop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ifrit05 Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Delete the GMA3100 drivers/intel integrated frame buffer. But you should of backed up the original ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
