Fuzz Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 (edited) Whats wrong: When i boot up I get the error msg that you see below. I can't change Screen Resolution or Refresh Rate and I've got mouse tearing and some other graphic bugs. Also the card is shown as PCI but it is a AGPx8 card and it only shows 256Mb of its 512 MB Ram. System Infos: Jas OS X 10.4.8 ( Jas 10.4.8.semthex.pkg patch) What I did: I installed Jas OS 10.4.7 so i had support for ethernet card ( RTL 8139) because it did not work when I installed 10.4.8. Then I patched 10.4.7 to 10.4.8 using "Jas 10.4.8.sethex.pkg" and installed the "10.4.8.ATI.Radeonnx1x00.agp.support.pkg". Now I have the problems I described above.
