Same here with 7800GT
 
Hello,

Interesting, I have exactly the same problem, my machine is equiped with a 7800GT 256mb.

It works perfectly with arch=i386 in com.apple.Boot.plist, but if I boot in 64 bits I got that Kernel Panic when minimizing windows, etc.

Well, I will be in 32 bits world a little bit more :)

I've heard of other people with 256MB cards having trouble, I wonder if that's the problem here. FYI: I picked up an 8800GT with 512mb for $60.00 on ebay and haven't had that problem since.

Update: This day the Kernel Panics returns for me. I Dont see them for over a Month or so, today it hit me very hard. Every Hour or Two i have KP related to the geforce.kext.
To remember : i dont have a 256mb Card, i have a 9600GT with 512mb.

I have change NOTHING. The Computer runs fine for months and i dont to Anything. I cant explain it. Maybe it is the card? With the Panic comes so Random it is hard to pinpoint it down.

Someone any Idea?

Here are a few System Infos:

10.6.1 Vanilla, Patch DSDT, EFI String for Graphiccard, Chameleon RC2.
