Reveeen Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Well, my best guess is you loaded the wrong display driver when you did your install. When you pick a driver the driver looks for a "device id number", when it can't find a matching number, it errors and doesn't load. To be honest, I don't know how to fix this post install, and checking the drivers list: http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/index.php/3rdPartyDrivers There isn't a driver for a 9550, so the right choice would have been no driver, letting it default to VESA mode. I would re-install without a specific video driver. (I'm lying, I would install a video card that there is a driver for, off of that driver list) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/86533-help-with-my-display-driver/#findComment-614411 Share on other sites More sharing options...
alan6288 Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 I have a 9550 that i updated the bios, Now it comes as a 9600 pro. You should find a driver for that one.

hecker Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Just reinstall and just pick the optional components that you ABSOLUTELY require for the system to run in the most basic mode. You can add the video "enablers" later. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/86533-help-with-my-display-driver/#findComment-614601 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reveeen Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 You would go to where I sent you in the first place: http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/index.php/3rdPartyDrivers Picking up your NIC driver. As far as I know there is no specific driver for a 9550 (as I already said), it was suggested you flash the card's bios to a 9600 (by alan6288), myself, rather than fight, I'd switch to a supported video card.

Reveeen Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 I'm not quite sure how you *think* you found a driver. You would grab the driver for the hardware you have. Whatever you do with your video card is up to you, I told you how I would fix it (I would buy a FX5200 video card), I do not recommend flashing your video card's bios, but if you decide to, google "flashing an ATI video card bios".
