build Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 I remember reading somewhere that the Apple Cinema Displays had a problem displaying the Bios on a PC. Can anyone confirm this. I would like to get a Cinema Display for my Hackintosh. Has anyone on here succesfully hooked one up to their hackintosh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoMuS Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 I have the 23 inches one, and works. Even the BIOS and windows. Bye! Edit: I have a 7600 gt , so the delish's post is right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delish Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 ACD 23" can be picky about showing POST screen (BIOS screen) with some gfx-cards, but it works fine when gfx-card driver loads. Cards I have tried: ATI x800xt pe = no post ATI x1900xt = no post Nvidia 7600gt = shows post Nvidia 8800gtx = shows post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aqua-mac Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 I have a pair of Apple 20" ADC see through cinema displays and a pair of 17" studio ADC displays and both work fine on hackintoshes via Apple DVI/ADC converters. No problems whatsoever. This is with a Nvidia 7900 GTX 512 softstrapped to Quadro FX 5500 card. I have used many Nvidia cards, inc 7600GT, 7300GT but have not tried ATI.

CogitoErgoSum Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 My Apple 23" ADC works just fine when paired with my ATI 1950 XTX at work. It shows POST and all the way into windows (no hackintosh on the work box...yet). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafyta Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 I have a 30" with winXP (waiting to finish some stuff to turn it into a hackintosh) and an ATi card, everything works fine and shows everything from the moment i turn it on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
