NVCAP // Basic Questions
Hello!
The Story before: Since i have a few Problems with some Zotac GeForce Cards i tried making my own EFI-String for it. The Cards i am talking about are the Zotac GeForce 9800GT 1024MB and the Zotac GeForce 9500GT 1024MB. The Cards have the same Layout: VGA | HDMI | DVI I got both Cards working with 10.6.4 with VGA-Output. QE/CI fully working. I had the Cards working with NVEnabler 64 / GraphicsEnabler / GraphicsEnabler + NVIDIA.ROM/ EFI-String but The System will just give me output on the Display if i boot with VGA. The DVI Port will only work if i boot from VGA, then connect DVI, and unplug VGA. Dual Display wont work with this. Since i want to set up a dual (or even triple / if possible /) Display-Config it is kind of important to me that at least 2 Outputs work. I made a Custom EFI-String based on the data i got from NVCAP (using a selfmade ROM-Backup) and it worked same as before. QE/CI working but only VGA-out and DVI with some "tricks". So here are my questions about NVCAP: - There seem to be two diffent styles of NVCAP Values <key>NVCAP</key> <data>BAAAAAAAAwAMAAAAAAAABwAAAAA=</data> or <key>NVCAP</key> <data>04000000000003000c0000000000000700000000</data> - Does it make any difference what style the values are in? - Are they even a different Style, and even if they are, how do i convert them? - Is there a NVCAP/EFI-String based workaround to get all Outputs ( VGA | HDMI | DVI ) working? The main reason i need info on this is that i need at least dual-display support. The other Reason is that the GPUs are working way to slow (CineBench/OpenMark) when connected via VGA or DVI/VGA-Adapter. If anyone got info to this, or any suggestions how i can get at least 2 outputs to work, it would be great if you could help me or just post a link to the solution. The next thing i will try in a few days will be a HDMI to DVI Adapter, but if this works there is still the Problem with the slow VGA-out. Things i have already tried are: NVEnabler 64.kext >> QE/CI working / bad performance / VGA-Only GraphicsEnabler=y >> QE/CI working / bad performance / VGA-Only GraphicsEnabler=y + NVIDIA.ROM >> QE/CI working / bad performance / VGA-Only EFI-String from EFI-Studio 1.1 >> QE/CI working / bad performance / VGA-Only EFI-String Custom from NVCAP >> QE/CI working / bad performance / VGA-Only GraphicsEnaber=no >> no QE/CI / VGA-Only NVinject.kext >> no QE/CI / VGA-Only Natit.kext >> no QE/CI / VGA-Only Is there any other Enabler that could get Dual-Displays or even Triple-Displays to work? Is this NVCAP valid? <key>NVCAP</key> <data>04000000000003000c0000000000000700000000</data> Any suggestions or Solution for this would be welcome. Thanks in advance! |
