Qasim_Iqbal Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 I installed Mac OS X on my custom built Intel Core 2 Duo desktop (2GB ram, Gigabyte S-Series G41M-ES2L motherboard, SATA 500GB hard drive). It works perfectly fine, no problems except for the screen resolution. It is stuck at 1024x768 for some reason, googled for 2 days now with no solutions that work. Im really mad now and thinking about scratching the idea of a hackintosh My monitor is this: http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applications/sea...sp?EdpNo=322929 22" BenQ G2222HDH monitor with a resolution of 1920x1080, and everything ive tried doesnt make it that resolution. Really restless at this point Is there someone who can enlighten me? I have no graphics card, its just the motherboard, and core 2 duo inside. 2 slots of ram are full with 1GBs each. Any help is appreciated. Mac identifies my graphics like this: Display: Type: GPU Bus: Built-In VRAM (Total): 64 MB of Shared System Memory Vendor: Intel (0x8086) Device ID: 0x2e32 Revision ID: 0x0003 Kernel Extension Info: No Kext Loaded Displays: Display: Resolution: 1024 x 768 Pixel Depth: 32-Bit Color (ARGB8888) Main Display: Yes Mirror: Off Online: Yes Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/259697-mac-os-x-1067-fully-working-but-resolution-is-wrong/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hackintosh2000 Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 You can buy a cheap graphics card. $40 max does the trick. Find out which ones work for sure then buy one. What kind of onboard graphics do you have? You have to make sure the chip is support.

Qasim_Iqbal Posted June 20, 2011 Author Share Posted June 20, 2011 Actually after looking more I figured out that I have a Intel G41 Express chipset. IS there any support for this?
