Laging Graphics No Quartz Extreme

I just installed an AGP ati HD 2400 pro 512MB and I did a clean install of ideneb 1.5.1.
I am able to raise the resolution to the desired setting but the system sort of lagsand QE is not enabled.
also system profiler reads the card as a Radeon HD 2400XT


I remember on my commuter when I installed the nvidia 6600 none of the injectors ever worked so I used an efi string in the universal installer. but the Universal installer doesn't offer one for the 512MB version of the Radeon HD 2400 pro and when I use the 256 version I boot to a blue screen.

I dont think much people have much experience with AGP anymore. Mostly everyone has moved on to PCI-E x16, I know I have.

Are you sure that the card is QE capable? It seems like it reads the card and can use the card but the card doesnt support QE.

as does a few other places.
UGH this has become a huge pain I should have got the 256MB version of the card.
I'm thinking of returning it but then I don't know what card to get to replace it.

I can't believe you have a store that sells agp cards.

Well if you can get the card that is more capable I advise so.

What Enabler are you using currently? The Natit version from that Link you posted I guess, right?

Do the following:
1. Check you IOPCIMatch at Systemprofiler it's combiniton of DeviceID and VendorID
2. Go to Terminal
3. Type:
Code:
sudo -s
nano /System/Libraries/Extensions//ATIRadeonX2000.kext/Contents/Info.plist
4. Add your IOPCIMatch to the <string> at below <key>IOPCIMathc</key>
5. Reboot using -f
6. Have fun with QE enabled!

AMD Phenom II X4 955 - ASRock AM3A770DE - 8GB DDR3-1333 - Radeon HD 5570 1GB passiv - BCM4318 802.11b/g - Snow Leopard Retail
