kovpas Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 (edited) I have ATI Mobility Radeon X700 - not sure if this card is the same as yours. And it works well on 1280x800 with qi/ce. Just set up callisto patch, and patched ATIRadeonGA.plugin Edited January 4, 2007 by kovpas Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/37648-radeon-x700-gfx-card/#findComment-268040 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bradwyn Posted January 4, 2007 Author Share Posted January 4, 2007 (edited) Hey thanks for the info but unfortunatly it did not work for me, you have a laptop correct? my gfx card is pci express for my desktop. Damn it would be so awsome if i could get this card to work, then i would have absolutly everything working.

kovpas Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 Yep, I have a laptop - i think, that my card is not PCIx. Try to use other version of callisto - may be it will help.

Bradwyn Posted January 4, 2007 Author Share Posted January 4, 2007 I would just like to hear someone with my card say they have done it, I screwed it up last time and don;t wanna do a complete reinstall again. Maybe I should just buy a supported card lol but that would take the fun out of it.

Bradwyn Posted January 5, 2007 Author Share Posted January 5, 2007 OK! finally some better news, I tried the Koverg patch again and I managed to unlock all the resolutions in the display menu. Although I can select up to 1600x1200x32 and select my refresh rate, i cannot go past this. I have these resolutions unlocked. 640x480 800x600 1024x768 1152x864 1280x768 1280x800 1280x960 1280x1024 1400x1050 1440x900 1600x1024 1600x1200 1680x1050 1792x1344 1856x1392 1920x1200 1920x1440 2048x1536 2560x1600 I consider this huge progress but can someone please help me get CI/QE support. I'm almost there. Brad Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/37648-radeon-x700-gfx-card/#findComment-268904 Share on other sites More sharing options...
