LeBron Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 alright. i just got myself an apple keyboard and a brand new nvidia 8600 GT 512MB graphics card. I installed it perfectly and it works. It recognized it and I installed the right drivers, it seems like everything works now, including screen res and photobooth. All I want to get working now and then I have a full OS X is time machine. It just collapses the finder like its going to start and freezes for a second. Then the screen just goes blank, like it shows the desktop and nothing happens. I have tried multiple times. I have QE/CI enabled. I am just not sure why I cannot get this to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
