InflatableMouse Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 Hey guys, This has been going on a few days and since Im a c0mplete n00b with Macs I'm at a loss here. I was able to install the natit dual v02 kext installer and after the reboot I could choose all the resolutions and frequencies my monitor has to offer. The next reboot it was still good and came up in that resolution. However, the reboot after that the screen went black, monitor went to sleep and the HD kept going. I figure its still loading the OS but outputs to the wrong output although I'm not sure. I cannot test the other output I have to stick with analog (DVI-A convertor.) I get into OSX by holding down the shift. I can then reset the video properties and work, more or less. I have no clue what to do make OSX boot properly without holding down shift and keep the display settings. Any help would be greatly appreciated, I know many have this card working with these drivers and I'm sure its something simple. Thx! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCL2k6 Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 Hi, I have a similar problem, only thing is that my screen is becoming garbled after I've installed Diabolik's 10.4.9 Nvidia drivers. If I boot into Safe MOde (-x) it's working more or less fine. I can set resolutions, and everything. QE/CI is not working 'tough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macbrush Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 What version, and distribution of OS? Extra drivers such as Titan or Natit? Mobo chipset? Any error messages or logs? I run a AGP 7600GT on a 865 chipset, with Natit, and edited NV40 driver. Dual monitor, all resolution, QE/CI enabled, the only thing that's lacking is AGP support, but that has nothing to do with 7600GT anyway. Oh... the splash effect in dashboard when you add widgets by single click won't work on 7600GT though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCL2k6 Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 Well my setup is a ASUS 7600GT PCI-Ex, on ASUS P5LD2VM/C MOBO, with 2Gigs of ram, 400G SATA HDD. OS X 10.4.7 upgraded to 10.4.9 with JAS Combo update. NVidia driver is Diabolik's 10.4.9 build with Natit v02. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InflatableMouse Posted April 24, 2007 Author Share Posted April 24, 2007 Mine is a 975x chipset, asus p5w dh deluxe, asus 7600GT. Just reinstalled mac osx, jas 10.4.8. when I install the natit v02 driver I will have the problem mentioned above. I will reinstall the driver once I know what to do to prevent this from happening. There must be a config I can edit to force the dvi-a output? thx for the help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InflatableMouse Posted April 24, 2007 Author Share Posted April 24, 2007 Hm I think its working now. After a reinstall of osx I installed the natit uni 1.0. Every other reboot though the screen will go on (green led) but no image. Info will show 800x600 60hz instead of 1600x1200 70hz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCL2k6 Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 @InflatableMouse, eventually you could try to install Diabolik's NVIDIA drivers, and on top of that install Natit UNI, like I did. My only problem was that I had to plug the TFT to the 1st DVI output, the one next to the SVIDEO out. On the other connector, at first boot I had a strange aspect ratio (1024x1280), with no mouse cursor displayed. Then I plugged the TFT to the 1st port, and everything was OK afterwards. Maybe see my other post on how I proceed: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=49331 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macbrush Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 I just need to edit NV40 kext with my device ID, and Natit for my 7600GT, don't need any extra drivers. And my second DVI port doesn't exactly work, I need to convert it to VGA in order for it to function. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ktz Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 7600GT got QE CI enabled but GUI in apps very slow. Try EFI string and nvkush. Same problem on Leopard and Snow Leopard. ANYONE? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
