Field Note #1 @psychonautuk 2008-05-11

Buy a graphics card for £20, err the ATI X1650 will do QE and Core image hardware. I have the same Mobo type with that onboard and its not a programmable card. I have resigned myself to buying one as there are quite a few apps that wont work properly without QE and Core image hardware, including Time machine, DVD etc.

Field Note #2 @Puttabong 2008-05-11

Did you try zeph's nvidia universal installer?
If it doesn't work then you should consider to buy a graphic card like psychonautuk suggested.

Nvidia GeForce 7600 GT is also cheap and very recommendable.

Field Note #3 @pαuℓzurrr. 2008-05-11

Yea, buy a graphics card, the integrated one doesn't work with much things anyway.

Field Note #4 @WinLinMac01 2008-05-12

It doesn't seem like the 4"30" is compatible as of yet. Pretty limited. =(

Field Note #5 @kroviken 2008-05-16

Field Note #7 @Puttabong 2008-05-24

You should consider buying a graphic card instead of using that onboard video chip!

A Nvidia 7600 GT is fast and works very well.
