noodpope Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 So I have an Alienware m9700 laptop. This thing has 2 x GeForce Go 7900gs PCIe cards, in SLi. Currently it seems that I've got them installed...sort of. In system profiler, I've got 2 of this: GeForce Go 7900 GS: Chipset Model: GeForce Go 7900 GS Type: Display Bus: PCIe PCIe Lane Width: x8 VRAM (Total): 768 MB Vendor: NVIDIA (0x10de) Device ID: 0x0298 Revision ID: 0x00a1 ROM Revision: NVinject 0.1.3 and one of them also has this: Displays: Display: Resolution: 1024 x 768 Depth: 32-bit Color Core Image: Software Main Display: Yes Mirror: Off Online: Yes Quartz Extreme: Not Supported Display Connector: and from the looks of things like the flurry screensaver and video playback, they're not being used properly, if at all. Also, I'm completely unable to change my resolution from anything other than 1024x768, which is really starting to get annoying on my 17 inch screen. I tried NVInject (obviously) and this is basically where I am now. Not even the "Graphics Mode" boot flag can shake my permanent 1024x768 resolution. Everything else is working great (i'm posting from os x right now), but this is something I've got to get worked out. Any ideas?

noodpope Posted February 19, 2008 Author Share Posted February 19, 2008 yeah i had that same problem when i tried using the graphics support that was in the AMD 10.5.1 installer. various versions of NVinject and titan and natit have all had some amount of success sometimes getting even the fact that its a go 7900 gs, but nothing can actually get CI or QE enabled, or even a decent resolution.
