rlf Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 Back in posting #12, you posted a copy of your org.chameleon.Boot.plist In posting #13, I suggested you edit the Boot.plist In posting #14, you said you think it didn't work. Can you post a copy of your edited org.chameleon.Boot.plist again?

rlf Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 According to the System Profiler information, the video card is a GeForce 6600 GT There is no support for this card in Lion, Mountain Lion or Mavericks. Snow Leopard 32-bit mode was the last support for this card.

Gringo Vermelho Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 Nobody can recommend the right video card for you without more information about the rest of your hardware. The 6600 GT is about nine years old, so you probably have an old PC. 9 years is a long time, I believe there are Windows 98 drivers (sorry, dirvers) for that card. This means your PC has an old Power Supply that would probably keel over and let out the blue smoke if you plugged in a GTX 660. So, it was wise of you to completely disregard that suggestion. I need you to do two things: i) Open your PC case and take a photo of the specifications label on the side of your power supply. Attach it here, use the full editor to attach files. ii) Post the make and model of your motherboard. This information is necessary in order to recommend a video card that will work in your PC.

Gringo Vermelho Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 I'm sorry but your photos are useless. I can't read the label on the power supply and the photo of your motherboard only reveals the make, not the model.

Gringo Vermelho Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 No it isn't, pay attention bob! What you posted and what he posted is not the same thing. Anyway it doesn't matter. You need to buy a better power supply before you can use a modern video card. I recommend this one, I have two myself: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001IZ7MHU/ Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/293756-looking-for-gtx-660-dirver/page/2/#findComment-1969224 Share on other sites More sharing options...
