New AppleMan. How to install ATI Radeon 7500 drives in my OSx86 installation.

[Carlitos]

Hi,

 

sorry for this topìc, but I'm new into the OSx World.

I cannot understand how I can put the ATI drivers into my OSx installation.

 

My situation is:

Laptop IBM ThinkPad R40 (2722-5MG)

Pentium Centrino M 1.3GHz, 1024MB RAM, 120GB HDD, 15 XGA(1024x768) TFT LCD, 32MB ATI Radeon 7500, 24x10x24x/8x CD-RW/DVD, Intel Pro 802.11b wireless, Modem(CDC), Ethernet(LOM), Secure Chip(TCPA), IEEE 1394, 8 cell battery, WinXP Pro

 

2 primary partitions:

WXp Prof and Mac OSx 10.4.8 JaS in the last one.

 

My problem is that when I run Mac, after the boot, appear a Black Screen, and that's all. No succes, no new screen...

I think my problem could be the ATI Radeon 7500.

 

Any idea?

 

But after read some forums, I can't understand how to install new drivers, for example, if I can't run Mac.

 

Note: I can't boot with the DVD Installation...

 

Thanks a lot

Carlos.

(Excuse me for my bad english)

Hi Carlitos,

 

I had the same problem trying to install JaS 10.4.8 SSE2 on my IBM T40. But then I tried a fresh install without installing any of the extra drivers at setup time, and it worked fine. Perhaps you are trying to install drivers at setup that are causing the problems?

(en caso que no queda claro en Ingles: Tenia el mismo problema instalando JaS 10.4.8 SSE2 para mi IBM T40. Pero intente de nuevo borrando el disco, y no seleccione ningun otro driver en el setup, y funcciono sin problema. quizas seleccionaste algunos drivers incompatibles en el momento de instalacion?)
