DrSupachicken Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Hi Guys, I have just upgraded from GMA950 to a 7300GS, got it for $60AUD so I thought why not. I'm happy with the overall performance, it seems a little bit snappier then the GMA950, and all the other bits work too. A big thanks to Diabolik for his installer and instructions. The next step for me now is to get dual displays running, and possibly even tv out. I have my first monitor running off the D-Sub, the second running of a DVI-VGA connector and the TV in the TV-OUT spot. When I restart I see mirrored display up untill the login window where it turns to one monitor, and when I click detect displays nothing comes up. is there something that I have to do to get both displays working? Would the fact that they are both old 17" CRT's be the reason that no displays come up when I say select display? Really looking forward to using dual screens, thanks heaps in advance!

BJMoose Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 I'm using a 7600GS with tv out and haven't yet gotten it to work with OSX. Using Natit dual 0.2. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/59239-dual-display/#findComment-422273 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrSupachicken Posted August 7, 2007 Author Share Posted August 7, 2007 Heya, Not really interested in TV out just wanted to see what other people would say. As far as drivers go I used the Diabolik installer and used 0.02, would I be better of using 0.01? Don't seem to be able to detect any monitors, though I didn't detect any when using GMA950 either? Thanks for your help guys! Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/59239-dual-display/#findComment-422309 Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the exact same error I get. As I boot up I have both monitors showing the same thing. Then as soon as the screens go black only screen 1 comes back on. My info page says just about the same thing yours does with the exception of my video card (I have an eVGA 7600GT 256MB). I'm starting to think I need to take this card back and get something more compatible. But which card would that be?

DrSupachicken Posted August 8, 2007 Author Share Posted August 8, 2007 Would the fact that I'm using old CRT mean no monitors are detected? When I was using GMA950 no monitor would get detected? On the wiki it says it works, just got to find some more information and do some tinkering I suppose.
