Need help enabling QE/GL on XFX Geforce 6800GT 256mb

I searched the forum and the internet but have been unable to find a fix for this problem.

I used this wonderful guide to install the retail DVD. http://www.infinitemac.com/f19/guide-gigabyte-g31m-es2l-retail-tutorial-t3187/

After a ton of trouble and and several reinstalls I got my card to let me change resolutions by updating to 10.5.8 and using "nvinject 0.1.3 VRAMtotalsize." However, I cannot enable Quartz extreme or Open GL. The machine is usable but ideally I wanted the Open GL acceleration for Photoshop cs4.

I tried enabling QE/GL using osx86 tools utility, but it had no effect.

Also in the system profiler it seems to have the wrong info about my VRAM size.

GeForce 6800 Series:

Chipset Model: GeForce 6800 Series
Type: Display
Bus: PCIe
PCIe Lane Width: x16
VRAM (Total): 768 MB
Vendor: NVIDIA (0x10de)

ROM Revision: NVinject 0.1.3

Depth: 32-Bit Color
Core Image: Software
Main Display: Yes
Mirror: Off

I have found these forums extremely helpful during this build and I hope someone can give me a little more specific insight for this. Thanks.

Well I resolved my problem. I switched out the 6800GT for my gaming rig's 8800GT, and followed this tutorial: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=91755

Now I have a flawless OSX install. But I suppose I will have to upgrade my gaming rig's graphics card now, darn lol.

Thanks again for all the useful information on this forum.
