Theo Stanton Posted July 21, 2007 Share Posted July 21, 2007 Hello. recently bought Asus A8V-VM SE and Nvidia 7300 GS PCIe with 256MB specifically to create a Mac system ... expecting installation to be straight forward which it was, however I still have only the one default resolution of 1024x768. Can't really appreciate Mac OS without 1280x1024 on my LCD. Everything else went perfectly using TubGirl's latest amd release, installing onto an IDE HDD, all goes pretty fast. I've tried Natit 0.1 and 0.2 to no Joy. Also tried Titan with no Joy either... Any help would be greatly appreciated as I've bought this relatively cheap hardware to get MAC OSX going how it should be, and I don't wish it to be bought in Vain.

chojin Posted July 21, 2007 Share Posted July 21, 2007 I actually also have this problem, but not quite the same way. I've got several releases (10.4.7, .8, .9, and now the latest .10 SSE3 AMDVM) and in all I've had Natit running fine (even dual monitors going) with my Geforce 7600GS but with tubgirls latest, I can only get 1024x768 mirrored, no QE/QI. This is pretty silly but I think tubgirl screwed up and it's the release, not the drivers.

Theo Stanton Posted July 21, 2007 Author Share Posted July 21, 2007 Thanks Rzk, worked a charm. I'll eventually use a different release as well if that's where the problem arose from. Thank you both, Theo Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/57766-graphics-issue/#findComment-412614 Share on other sites More sharing options...
