I finally got iATKOS v7 installed on my external usb HD and with works, with a slight video issue. whenever i drag a window or scroll up and down a page, the image gets stuck... so my current fix to "refresh" the image is to right click then it "refreshes" the displays correctly. Does anyone know a fix to this? I'm going to try and reinstall again with VGA drivers but those seem to put my computer into an endless reboot cycle. thanks!

when i went into display options it wouldn't let me change that... =(

Author Update #2 @jmkloz 2009-10-12

so i tired to install the NVinject kext but now every time i turn on the comp it starts to load but then freezes at the apple loading screen (the circle thing spins then freezes).

i have the Nvidia geforce 7150M/ nforce 630M... is there a kext for this card?

Sounds like you need to adjust the refresh rate of your video adapter.

Field Note #2 @00010 2009-10-11

Then you dont have the right kext loaded for your hardware.

Field Note #3 @00010 2009-10-12

I am not sure about that exact model, But there is a Package for those drivers, Have you tried OSx86 Tools to try to automatically find and install the right kext automatically?

Just click the download and download it and if you need help using it PM me.

I have always had the best results with OSx86 Tools , heres a link pcwiz computer.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=91&Itemid=48

this is the same driver and problem im having did you get this fixed ?

Field Note #5 @thorazine74 2009-10-23

Nvidia 7100 series are usually shared memory I think, if thats the case its not supported under OS X.

Field Note #6 @Maggot 2009-10-23

anyway to find out ?if not how would you go about stopping the blurring of the boxes everytime you move one ?
