MacJordan Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 I have a similar problem, after the drivers for my ATI X 1600XT are loaded the primary output of the videocard stops working, so i have to change it to secondary output. Try it. The only problem is that the display is not being detected wich is a wide screen, so of all the resolutions i get there is no 16:10 one. Does anyone have a clue how to put a "wide" resolution in there, or make both outputs to work. I didn't have this problem on JaS Tiger 10.4.8 until i've added another gigabyte of RAM (it's 2GB now) and the same thing happend there.

Crawley Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 try switchresX. With it you can set ANY custom resolution if you have some kind of resolution change available. It made my life easier in tiger. I have similar problems with my gfx card in leopard, but I never considered switching to other port. Will have to try.

MacJordan Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 Glad it worked macrazy , but switchresX is a 10 day trial. What happens after that? But now it works great, thanks Crawley.

macrazy Posted January 13, 2008 Author Share Posted January 13, 2008 well im not using the full program i just used the control panel of switchresX but the thing is after a while my card does not work with osx86 again so i removed it and just used the built-in 950gma and planing to get an nvidia card soon, but while i was searching on the net i found 1 program that says it can enable QE & custom resolution and supports a wide range of cards but i forgot the name of the program i think its like totalcontrol or somthing similar name, well ill try to look for it and try it and give the news Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/79555-help-please-on-ati-card/#findComment-577248 Share on other sites More sharing options...
