I installed new nvidia drivers suppose to be dedicated to my gtx 470 and they didn't work. So, I used my backup extensions to fix it and I believe my mac is now loading. I'm assuming the backup extensions are there for when something goes wrong? I got to my backup extensions because I installed a program called MacDrive on my Windows 7 side that can read my Macs harddrive so I was able to copy and paste my backup extensions into the system/library/extensions folder. Did I do this right? Everything seems to be working fine. I guess I'm stuck with the official nvidia drivers for mac.

I just still haven't figure out why on some youtube videos my graphics card seems to have no vsync on and the video tears a little bit. I don't understand why.


Weird, I get no vsync tearing in Angry Video games nerd video but I do on some youtube videos.

I also noticed that when I download this tv show called the Shark Tank that when I'm playing in VLC media player it sometimes goes out of sync but I don't know if this is Mac related or if the video I downloaded had corrupt sound to it. Who knows, but that out of sync issue isn't that bad because it rarely happens on VLC media player for Mac. I'm more annoyed about the v-sync tearing I see on some youtube videos.

Double post I do. Ummm, these back up extensions have now forced a pointless login screen. I'd like to get rid of it but don't know how.

Edit: Fixed it in security settings to have me login automatically.

When replacing extensions you need to build a new cache, here are some instructions:

Then again I'm not sure if you haven't done that, if your extension doesn't work, it might not have the right id for it in the .plist, never done that on nvidia though.
