7800 GTX+10.6.5 enable QE/CI any luck?
i have an 7800 GTX nad i would like to know if anybody succseeded with this card and snow leopard 10.6.5?
i have it running at the moment with 10.5.8 on dual screen mode and qe/ci enabled but i tried like 8 different injectors which was not succsesfull and diferent variation of driver versions but still no succsess EFi string gives me just dual screen but no QE/CI please help if possible or should i just give up because there is no chance making it work with 10.6.5? |
just run graphicsenabler=y. my old 7900GS was immediately picked up by it and worked FLAWLESSLY. make sure you use the new chameleon bootloader. hope this helps
|
what version should i use of chameleon?
|
the version im currently using is the latest from the website
|
r683 or whatever, right? remove any enablers, (NVInject, Natit, NVEnabler, etc) and reboot, and at the disk selection screen, (chameleon screen) type "GraphicsEnabler=Y" without the quotes, and if it works, go into your chameleon preference pane in system preferences, and check the box next to 'graphicsenabler' and click back then you're done. thats how my 7900 was picked up, which is obviously a tad newer than your 7800, so yours should work. good luck
|
Did you have any luck?
|
took some time, i tried and no loĽuck 7800 gtx is not working with the suggested method, maybe its not supported?
|
That's weird. Do u get a black screen at boot with graphicsenabler?
|
you will get this working!
is the card agp or pci express?
you will definately get this working using dsdt and you can match the same id's as a apple 7800 card. It does sound like you need to patch the nv4 and geforce kexts with your id which is not needed if you fake the id in dsdt (a smart trick i might add) let me know LS :cool: also you can ask the guy here what he did with his 7800gt card. however, that is definately pci express http://www.tonymacx86.com/viewtopic....=7684&start=50 |
so here is what i achieved till now, i installed iatkos 10.6.3 s3 v2 and after installation i have qe/ci enabled BUT if i update then it wont work anymore or even without update only if i modify the extension and the Extension.mkext Cache file gets updated then it doesnt work anymore, so i was thinking i can extract the cache file and just use those extensions, which i tried but after all i tried i cant get it to work anymre but if i put the Extensions.mkext cahe file inside then it works. so the 7800 should work but the question is how, btw. how do i use dsdt file? i never used it, or at least not that i am aware of or at least not concious. thank you in advance
AHH btw. it is PCI-E |
