!Shaun! Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Does anyone know if the intel G965 chipset in a Dell Dimension E520 has onboard graphics support in a tiger or leopard (QE CI)? Any info would be great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whats Up Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 I know that the iAtkos v1.0i does. I installed it last night. I forget which option to use but I have had not problem with the graphics. (Except I can not run Google Earth. It freezes for some reason.) I would advise that you get this version and install it using the following instruction set found here.. I installed using a DLink DFE-538tx that I got for $15 as a NIC. You can use the "ViaRhine.kext' found on the install disk. Sound can be found on wiki.taruga.net. Video. The on-board video is limited to 1024x768x32bit to start with. I was able to do the following to increase it to 1280x1024x32. I am not sure what size of LCD you are using but this did work very well. I had found the info on another post. I am not sure what you are running on your E520 but I was able to install an intel Q6600 quad core processor using the dell stock passive heat sync. and it has worked great. Apple makes good use of all 4 cores. Just make sure you have an updated Bios. All the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thestevo Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 You can't run google earth because you have no acceleration, equivalent to VGA mode on windows. No QE/CI. However, I've fixed that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
