roman3of23 Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 I'm really sorry I had to post this. I looked everywhere to find instructions on how to get this card working. I recently bought it because I read somewhere in this forum that it's fully supported by 10.4.8 JAS. So when installing OSX I marked the ATI x1x00 driver, which didn't work. I then installed Diabolik's X1600 driver from his site. Repaired permissions like it asked me to. Rebooted, same kernel panic. I reinstalled OSX86 without any graphics drivers, installed the "http://installers.dl.am/" universal driver. No difference... I have an AMD 3000+ an ATI Radeon X1600 PCIe 256. The problem is, there are so many people who say they have this card working with full CI & QE working, and I have yet to see how they managed to get it working... I had allot of hope for Diabolik's driver, but no luck and no real strait forward instructions. I'm hoping the reason no one has posted instructions means I'm missing something stupid.

roman3of23 Posted April 20, 2007 Author Share Posted April 20, 2007 I managed to get it before you removed it, thanks... But unfortunately it doesn't appear to work. I'm wondering if I need to manually configure any of the kext files? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baliw Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 What kind of card do you have? PCIE or AGP? Look here for instructions on how to manually install the driver. HTH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roman3of23 Posted April 20, 2007 Author Share Posted April 20, 2007 Oh yeah!! That did it!! I followed that procedure and trashed all the kexts that had nothing to do with my card. I found many things the installer missed, and corrected them. QE & CI!! Sweet!! Thank you so much for your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
