this card dont seem to work with all available kext that i found.
the best was nvkush.it did regonize the 8800 gt. so i went on the site and did a new kext with his helper, but no luck. 512mb worked but not QE.

QE, never worked from 10.5.2 10.5.3 10.5.4

did anyone made this (brand) graphic card work??

Do not post in the News section! Moved(sorry again, my mistake)

actualy its Quartz Extreme that dont work at all.

its says:
Core Image: Software
Quartz Extreme: Not Supported


i dont know if core image: software means its working, but i would say yes.

Look at the image

I see you've got two gfx cards. AFAIK SLI doesn't work with hackintoshes (at least not easily).

I would try removing one and get that working first. Nvkush's installer should work, if not try adding an EFI gfx string to your com.apple.boot.plist.

Yes it's one or the other, not both. What steps have you tried so far with one card?

For more info on how to use NVkush, see here. As you have a 512mb card use DiaboliK’s Plist Generator mentioned in the article as well.

i installed nvkush then i went to plist generator for 512mb.....copy to clipboard...
then
i open in nvkush.kext the file called info.plist with textemate. select all delete and paste,save all. and reboot.

yes the card is regonize and the id is 0611 like it should
core image looks like it works(i dont know, it just say software).

and QE still dont work.

here is the result with efi string (made with efistudio):
btw i used the efi string for gt and gts, after, neither of one seems to work..
it should be 8800 gts i guess. it says 8800 gt sonic on my card.
sonic is the overclocking made by palit. so my guess is gts
