solaar Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 Hi suffering dual monitor fellas and brilliant tech heads, After endless Leopard (re)install attempts, kext installs, reboots, Mr Chowns and Mrs Chmods I come to the conclusion that the XFX Geforce 7300GS PCI-E 256 is either not compatible with 10.5.2 for dual monitor operation or the different inject methods have never been properly tested. All I ever got is one monitor, never dual operation. The card works fine in Mandriva BTW. Fancy a bet anyone? Please feel free to prove me wrong - with precise instructions how to get it to work please, or you lose the bet I've read countless (quite possibly all) tutorials and threads out there and followed them to the T. None of the NVinject, Natit, Titan... kexts work. I also tried this huge code to replace NVCAP in the NVinject info.plist but no luck. I even tried to get this card to work it in 10.4.10 but that was even worse (blue, black and scrambled screens. Any help hugely appreciated.

solaar Posted March 30, 2008 Author Share Posted March 30, 2008 Update... I've lost my bet ... against myself Here's the deelio - (nowhere clearly documented, not even mentioned) I had to use versions of nVidia related files from february 2007 in the Extensions folder. I think they were from 10.4.8 if I'm not mistaken. That is: Geforce*.* NVDA*.* and the latest NVinject.kext Dual display, QE/CI, rotation, it's all there cheers Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/96402-solved-xfx-7300gs-and-dual-monitor/#findComment-689366 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crawley Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Did you edit anything? What version of NvInject did you use? I used these kexts from 10.4.8 with my 7300GT, recognises the card, but no QE/CI and no res change. Could you possibly attach nvinject.kext you used here?
