Vegard Posted October 29, 2006 Author Share Posted October 29, 2006 okey...I'll read it. Edit: It dosent work. This is my com.apple.Boot.plist: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>Kernel</key> <string>mach_kernel</string> <key>Kernel Flags</key> <string>-v</string> <key>Boot Graphics</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>Timeout</key> <string>10</string <key>Graphics Mode</key> <string>1280x1024x32</string> </dict> </plist> Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/31367-how-to-set-resolution-to-1280x1024/#findComment-219225 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rammjet Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 I can only use 1024x768. Nothing lower and higher.How can I get 1280x1024 ? What video card do you have. Try booting with "Graphics Mode" = "1280x1024". If that works add it to your boot.plist. But getting some better drivers for your video card would allow you to select resolution in System Preferences.

I use this: http://www.ecs.com.tw/ECSWeb/Products/Prod...=21&LanID=0 Where can I finde drivers ?

Overdriven Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 Well if you copied that over directly you put "<string>10</string"... you need to close the string to make it "<string>10</string>". -Neospy Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/31367-how-to-set-resolution-to-1280x1024/#findComment-219281 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use this: http://www.ecs.com.tw/ECSWeb/Products/Prod...=21&LanID=0 Well, one way is to follow the link you gave and read a little bit. Or you can open System Profiler in OSX and click on Graphics/Displays. Or you can go to Windows -> Device Manager. Or you can download PC Wizard in Windows and run it. According to the link you gave, you have: VIA/S3G K8M800 Where can I finde drivers ? There are no OSX drivers for VIA/S3G K8M800. But you have an AGP slot on your motherboard. You can get another, better, video card.
