as u suggested in irc to reinstall whole system.. i did it.. now all i have is installed 10.4.7 + combo updates = 10.4.8/ Darwin 8.8.1 / OpenGL 1.4.10

 

and i extracted NVKexts_TITAN_10_4_8.tar.bz2.tar to desktop and i edited my device id into file that said to do it in readme file.

 

now what do i have to do... now? can u tell me each steaps by steaps please?? cuz i dont wann to screw up this again <_<

 

 

here r the files in that folder

 

~/Desktop/NVKexts_TITAN GujuLvr$ ls
GeForce.kext					GeForceVADriver.bundle		  NVDANV40Hal.kext
GeForce2MXGLDriver.bundle	   IONDRVSupport.kext			  NVDAResman.kext
GeForce3GLDriver.bundle		 NVDANV10Hal.kext				README.TXT
GeForceFXGLDriver.bundle		NVDANV20Hal.kext				Titan.kext
GeForceGA.plugin				NVDANV30Hal.kext

GeForce3GLDriver.bundle		 NVDANV10Hal.kext				README.TXT
GeForceFXGLDriver.bundle		NVDANV20Hal.kext				Titan.kext
GeForceGA.plugin				NVDANV30Hal.kext

Go to Terminal and type:

pt="/System/Library/Extensions"   <--- use quotation marks
cd ~/Desktop/NVKexts_TITAN
sudo cp -Rf GeForce* $pt/GeForce*
sudo cp -Rf NVDA* $pt/NVDA*
sudo cp -RF IONDRV* $pt/IONDRV*
sudo cp -Rf Titan.kext $pt/Titan.kext
cd /System/Library
sudo rm -rf Extensions.mkext Extensions.kextcache
cd Extensions
sudo chown -R root:wheel GeForce* NVDA* IONDRV* Titan.kext
sudo chmod -R 755 GeForce* NVDA* IONDRV* Titan.kext

Then reboot.

Did you edit your deviceid in Geforce.kext NVDANVResman.kext and NVDA40Hal.kext?

 

The line has to look like

 

<string>0xXXXX10de</string> where XXXX is the deviceid. No &amp or other stuff in that line, same for all three lines.

you can try my 6600gt link, maybe it works also for your nvidia card

 

i dont kow if i should tkae chances cuz this is like 15times i had to reinstall whole thing all over again.. n now i m tired of reinstalling system over n over again

I alredy did edited before i insatllted it.

 

From ReadME.txt

You WILL need to edit the following

files with your correct hardware ID for your NV Video card:

 

NVDAV40Hal.kext/Contents/Info.plist

NVDAResman.kext/Contents/Info.plist

GeForce.kext/Contents/Info.plist

 

I have put my hardware ID in for name sake ( 0x00c310de )

so simply find your hardware ID and replace the 00c3 part

in the file listed above.

 

here is wat i edited in all those 3 files

 

GeForce.kext

<string> 0x00c310de&0xffffffff</string>

To

<string>0x01df&0xffffff</string>

 

 

NVDAResman.kext

<string> 0x00c310de&0xffffffff</string>

To

<string>0x01df&0xffffff</string>

 

NVDAV40Hal.kext

<string> 0x00c310de&0xffffffff</string>

To

<string>0x01df&0xffffff</string>

 

I used Plistedit to edit those files then i installed how Rammjet told me to

But this trick finally worked for me.

They should be - <string>0x01df10de&0xffffffff</string>

 

The 01df is the card model and the 10de is the manufacturer. You need both.

ooooo okey after i jst open up dat NVKexts_TITAN folder and edited those files again from 0x01df to 0x01df10de and follow rammjet installing steps again and rebooted it.. still NO QE/CI :D
