Same setup that I've got. Got to system preferences, other, bootloader, peripherals, check graphics mode and then set it to your native resolution.

qasim1iqbal Posted February 27, 2012 Author Share Posted February 27, 2012 After doing this, I rebooted and got a black screen. Nothing I did would fix it. I am very upset and need help. I set it to 1920x1080x32. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qasim1iqbal Posted February 28, 2012 Author Share Posted February 28, 2012 I have installed iATKOS L2 on my custom-built PC successfully. I tried to change the resolution by going to System Prefs -> Other -> Boot Loader -> Peripherals -> Graphics and changed it to 1920x1080x32 (My monitor's native resolution). After changing it and saving the settings, I restarted, only to see a black screen that won't go away. What did I do wrong and how do I fix it? Any help is appreciated.

Could you try and figure out which intel chipset it is? There are drivers for a number of various chipsets, if you could find drivers you'd be in much better shape. Also, screenresx looks like its a promising solution. Anyway, the alternative that I'd recommend is just to install a copy of ubuntu with GLXdock (if I'm remembering the name right). This system, if configured right, will look only ever so slightly different than OS X and will look and run much more nicely. I'm only keeping hackintosh as a technological oddity, and because for some reason, this layout feels much nicer when I know I'm using the actual apple OS than when I'm trying to make ubuntu look like a mac. Also, netflix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
