disable hardware???

[pion]

In windows xp, theres a device manager were you can disable any sort of hardware by right click then disable.

Is there similar thing in osx, were i can disable hardware?

 

for example:

i got two graphic card: GMA950 and nvidia 6600gt

GMA950 for osx use only

nvidia 6600gt for windows use only.

 

i would like to disable 6600gt in osx, how do i do that??????

I have the similar problem, with ATI 1600 and GMA950. I would like to disable one of them because they both apear on mac regardles the fact that GMA is disabled in BIOS. Any sugestion?

Might want to try removing the related kexts from the Extensions folder. Go to Terminal and type:

cd /System/Library/Extensions					   <-- move to Extensions folder
sudo mkdir Extensions.disabled					  <-- make backup folder
sudo mv AppleIntelGMA* Extensions.disabled/		 <-- move kexts to backup folder
sudo mv AppleIntel915* Extensions.disabled/		 <-- move kexts to backup folder
cd /System/Library								  <-- move to Library folder
sudo rm -rf Extensions.mkext Extensions.kextcache   <-- delete kext database for rebuild
reboot
