Hi, I'm trying to get my 8800GT working with CI/QE too (and failing). What part of Geforce.kext, NVDANV50Hal.kext and NVDAResman.kext do I need to edit? The bit with the device ID? I know the 8800GT's is 611. Thanks, Mike

edit the info.plist , and you will see something like this

Quote:
<key>IOPCIPrimaryMatch</key>
<string>0x00f010de&amp;0xfff0ffff 0x019010de&amp;0xfff0ffff 0x040010de&amp;0xfff0ffff 0x042010de&amp;0xfff0ffff 0x06e010de&amp;0xfff0ffff 0x060010de&amp;0xffe0ffff</string>
<key>IOProbeScore</key>
put only your device id

Quote:
<key>IOPCIPrimaryMatch</key>
<string>0x066110de</key>
copy your kext into the desktop, right click and "show pkg ...", and edit with textedit the info.plist. Then install again the kext using kexthelper or via terminal.

Thanks for the help guys! I stumbled across this excellent guide:

and now I finally have QE/CI working with my 8800GT, which is great! :-)
