NoSmokingBandit Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 I just installed 10.6.3 with the newest version of chameleon. I have an xfx 8600gt 256mb card and I can't get it to go over 1024x768. Graphics enabler does nothing, I've created efi strings that did nothing, i've tried a slew of kexts that did nothing. What should I be trying next?

Kucksy Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 Just wondering, what did you use to generate your efi string for your video card ? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279396-i-cannot-get-my-8600gt-working/#findComment-1823416 Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSmokingBandit Posted May 29, 2012 Author Share Posted May 29, 2012 gfxutil. I've done it several times before for other cards, but this one just refuses to work.

ultimo Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 I have the same series card, just the mem is twice as on yours, I used EFIStudio, a part of the leohazard distro, the rig is an AMD proc, I don't think that'll matter.
