Jas 10.4.8 on AMD Athlon 64 X2, 2GB RAM, Quadro FX1400

 

I've only found two other people with FX1400 cards, and they both got Titan to work first try. I couldn't after 5 tries, but MacVidia worked fine...I think. It just seems a little slow, and I wonder if I have the advance settings/capabilities for this card. I tried to check system info via About This Mac, but the GUI crashes/resets every time I click on it - not encouraging.

 

Would anyone know what might be causing it, and how to get around it? Also, how to turn advanced features on?

 

PS. Loving my hackintosh, despite a long road to get it running. Fanatic PC guy 2 years ago; experienced a crisis in faith 1 year ago (when I helped my sister buy her Mac); and converted 3 weeks ago (shortly after 'my Vista crisis'). :angel:

As I feared. When I remembered how to find the System Profiler, I got this:

 

NVIDIA Quadro FX 1400:

VRAM (Total): 128 MB

Vendor: NVIDIA (0x10de)

Device ID: 0x00ce

Revision ID: 0x00a2

Displays:

FPD2185W:

Resolution: 1680 x 1050 @ 60 Hz

Hmmm. I've seen both ce and de used in the device id. How much of a difference would that make?

 

The system is starting to act flaky - dmg's won't load, and none of the googled solutions has worked so far. I tried logging in a different account, and clicking on About This Computer kicked me out again.
