After spending a week reading, installing, editing kexts, breaking my install, reinstalling......repeat

 

I finally got everthing to work.

 

The Solution.......

 

Went to Tiger Direct, Bought XFX GeForce 8600GT ($79 after $30 rebate), Installed Card and used NVInstallerV.33.pkg.

 

Should have done this much sooner and I would have saved much frustration and grief.

I had an ATI x1650 512MB card and no matter what fix I tried I would end up with a blank screen and have to do a reinstall. My second screen was always just a mirror of the first screen and the only resolution available was 1024x768. I tried every fix I could find in the forums and nothing worked for me.

 

The new geforce card allowed me to get everything working properly.

 

I now dual boot between Vista and OSX86 10.5.1 and use parallels to run Windows XP while in OSX.
