cro Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 hello all, i just got this gigabyte ga-81865GME-775-RH (rev 2.0) board with a pentium d 3ghz. runs great with vista, but... i try to install os x, and i get a very funky screen after install. cant read a damn thing on it. i dont see any place in the bios to set the agp aputure to 128mb, and i'm not sure if that is something that may be causing my issue or not. any suggestions would be great. thanks in advance.

audit13 Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 I'm a newbie with a low-end mobo that has the 865 Intel chipset and could only boot into safe mode until I adjusted my video drivers. Are you able to boot into safe mode? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/45607-81865gme-775-rh-rev-20/#findComment-326603 Share on other sites More sharing options...
cro Posted March 19, 2007 Author Share Posted March 19, 2007 (edited) ok, so i reformated/installed from scratch. i didnt put in the drivers for nv40, and lo and behold, it works. i got the happy open gl spinning box registration thing, but.. under system profiler it says qe/ci are not supported. now i only have to figure out how to set the agp apature, and get nic to go.

audit13 Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 Did you try deleting AGPGart.kext? I'm now using an nVidia FX5200 which would not give me QE and CI until I deleted this kext and rebooted the machine.
