AMDRadeonAccelerator.kext After install kexts set GraphicsEnabler=Yes. MY dual cards works v.well. more info look my ioreg files. Allso windows7 supported crossfire All but 2 monitors must be connected to the DP ports on the AMD graphics card, and be able to support the required resolution. The 2 exceptions can be connected to the DVI or HDMI ports. The monitors connected to the DP ports can be connected with DP cables, or using AMDrecommended active adapters to DVI or HDMI ports on the monitors. Where multiple graphics adapters are installed, Eyefinity groups cannot span across multiple adapters. With cross-fire enabled, only monitors connected to the primary card will be enabled.

TH3L4UGH1NGM4N Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 So I take it that boot loader you used inside the "loder" folder can recognize more than 1 gpu in a pcie slot if I'm not mistaken? Congrats btw on the dual 6950 working.

jayee Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Hey manor! I followed your guide, updated to 10.7.5 then delete GPUSupport.framework, copy OpenGL and OpenCL.framework back and finally copy all the kexts file back. I currently can boot but there's no OpenGL or anything. I have full res though. I saw your pictures that you could make 10.7.5 boot with ATI opengl, could you show me how? Or if it even possible in 10.8, that would be great. Thanks for your time! Edit: Finally able to make it work on 10.7.5. Thank a lot manor!!
