erikk Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 did you have an intel cpu which support sse3? than use the new kernel (from semthex or vitaly) and use titat.kext from omni... then you get your nvidia card to work with all features like on a real mac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henry.oswald Posted November 2, 2006 Author Share Posted November 2, 2006 Its always good to ask isnt it! Yeah i have a core 2 duo but i didnt install sse because it crash's on my board (although i know i can get it going with a fresh install) Do you know of a good guide of this?

erikk Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 what you install and the system crashes? the new kernel? there is a short easy way: 1. download comboupdate 10.4.8. from apple site 2. install but don't reboot after finish! 3. copy the kernel binary from vitaly or semthex in your root but try to search for more infos here in forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

erikk Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 when i understand right, kernel with sse3 works?! so when you install your system right with the "old kernel" from jas 10.4.7 you will need the new kernel: (you found it here) http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=31456 but only take the new kernel is not the solution and will not work... so you need also the comboupdate from apple to 10.4.8.

Korrupted Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 Titan: http://omni.starchaser.org It gives most nvidia cards QE/CI/Resolution/Refresh as soon as you install it correctly. No other patching needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
