Hi I´m new here.

I have a Dell Inspirion 8600 with Jas 10.4.8 sse2.

A lot of my components works very well. (cpu throttle, resolution change, audio, wired lan, usb, firewire, touchepad, touche stick)

I have tried some installers like macvidia, or natit to get full support for my videocard.

When I install the natit driver, then I can´t boot into osx86. I get an restart picture or a black screen!

Has anyone the same videocard running full (with quartz extreme and core image)?

I als have tried a intel 2200 wlan mini pci card with the guide. But I can´t install it. Has anyone a running mini pci wlan card working on his dell inspiron 8600? I want to know whether a other mini pci card works for my notebook.

 

Notebook config:

Video: Geforce 5650

Audio: Sigmatel

CPU: Pentium M 1,5 Ghz

Wlan: Intel 2100 mini pci card

Chipset: intel 855pm

 

Here is my profiler status:

 

Chipsatz-Modell: Unknown nVidia

Typ: Monitor

Bus: AGP

VRAM (gesamt): 128 MB

Hersteller: NVIDIA (0x10de)

Geräte-ID: 0x031b

Hi Chris,

 

I have exactly the same configuration: 8600 with Go5650.

 

I had installed the NV40 drivers at installation, eventhough the Go5650 is a NV31. As a result, like you I can switch resolutions, from 800x500 (!) to 1920x1200, but have not accelerated video (CI, QE).

I tried MacVida and NATIT drivers but also got the black screen.

 

Here's a bit of bootlog:

 

Feb 22 17:45:56 localhost kernel[0]: NVDANV30HAL loaded and registered.

Feb 22 17:45:56 localhost kernel[0]: VID: family specific matching fails

So, basically I can't help you, but confirm what you've been experiencing..!

Hi I doesn´t tried your tutorial complete, but i tried the thing with the original update and edited all kext. But it doesn´t worked. I tried the titan kext but the also doesn´t worked.

So I don´t know really I tried the natit.kext and edited all geforce kext to. I also installed the AGP gart kext. But the also doesn´t worked. But today i´m very surprised because I tried all the things a few days ago. And today I wanted to check something in the system profiler and i could not believe what i saw. I looked to core image and quartz extreme and there stand it is supported.

The only thing that i want to check is the agp thing, because when i typed at the system boot -v the agp doesn´t loaded. But when i copy the agp gart again to the extensions folder the would be showed correctly at startup. So i will try it but i am not sure whether the core image and the quartz extreme worked after i copy the agp gart again into the folder. I also doesn´t know if the dual display is supported but i will check it!

 

Here is my system profiler status:

Is there a way to change unkown nvidia to my Nvida 5650 ?

And Is there a tutorial where i can get my cardbus running? I have I texas instruments 4510 cardus chip!

 

Thanks for help

Chris, can you confirm QE and CI are working? (I mean, does things like zooming (ctrl + scrollwheel) really go smooth? Can you play a DVD now?

 

By the way, on my setup my card is recognized (no "unknown nvidia"):

 

NVIDIA GeForce FX Go5650:

 

Chipsetmodel: NVIDIA GeForce FX Go5650

Type: Beeldscherm

Bus: AGP

VRAM (totaal): 128 MB

Fabrikant: NVIDIA (0x10de)

Apparaatcode: 0x031b

Revisiecode: 0x00a1

 

etc.

 

As of now QE and CI aren't not working, but I really haven't tried it this time around :P

Here is my system profiler status:

Typ: Monitor

Bus: PCI

 

Interesting! According to http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?sho...36044&st=60 , removing AGP seems to work on some cards. And indeed, your bus is now said to be PCI instead of AGP.

 

I'm currently in XP-mode, when I'm back on OSX, I will try to remove AGPGart!

 

Marc

The AGP-bit is the key.

I used this thread: http://forum.insanelymac.com/lofiversion/i...php/t36044.html

and still didn't get QE/CI, but did get hires 1920x1200. Note: I didn't install Titan from the DVD.

 

 

Then I deleted AGPGart and hey presto, Bob's your uncle!

 

Zooming (Ctrl+the scroll wheel on my Mighty Mouse [yes, my first Apple hardware!]) is smooth, F12 is smooth, I'm happy now :thumbsup_anim:
