Video Resolution and QE CI Issue - 10.4.7 / SSE2 / 855GME / Intel Extreme

[simulacra]

Greetings,

 

I have been beating my head against the wall all day trying to relieve this issue. Currently, the OSx86 installation is stuck in 1024x768 mode with no Core Image and/or quartz Extreme support. I have followed every possible tutorial and instruction found on editing .kext files, adding/updating the /System/Library/Extensions folder, and editing the AppleIntelFrameBuffer and AppleIntelIntegratedGraphics files. None have helped so far. Can anyone suggest how to correct my issue?

 

My chipset is a 855GME w/ Intel Extreme Graphics.

 

I have checked the Apple/About this MAC/More Info/Graphics/Display to find:

 

Type: VGA-Compatible Controller

Bus: Built-in

VRAM (Total): 128MB

Vendor: Intel (0x8086)

Device ID: 0x3582

Revision ID: 0x0002

Kernel Extension Info: No Kext Loaded

Displays:

Display:

Resolution: 1024x768

Depth 32-bit Color

Core Image: Not supported

Main Display: Yes

Mirror: Off

Online: Yes

Quartz Extreme: Not Supported

 

Thank you very much in advance for any help you may have to offer.

I don't think anyone has got 855 to work with QE/CI. Search the forums there are many threads on this topic from the past. Try http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?s=&...st&p=137957
