No one here knows of a fix, the only way i solved this problem like i said before was to downgrade OS X back to 10.5.2

why not sit on a 10.5.4 system and run it if it is known to work?

what did you need your system to 10.5.5 for graphics for specifically?

I cant stay with 10.5.4 unfortunately because my graphics card is a GeForce 9500 GT with 512mb ram and I couldn't install "NVIDIA 9000 Series Driver v2" because it would not install unless I had 10.5.5 installed.

If I didn't install that I would not have been able to get my grafix card to work. I wanted it to work so I could use cover flow, play games...ect you know..

If you can be patient try waiting for the new Voodoo kernel - it won't be long now. I'm absolutely positive that it should fix the issue that you're having

allright I'll wait for that. I have no idea what the voodoo kernal is though? can someone link me or something to information on it please =)

Sorry Admins but i have to have a rant.

Are you blind! i posted stuff up about it already, all you had to do was look through the section!

some people just expect to be spoon fed, you have to open your eyes!

sorry its just really annoying how some people ask silly questions that have already been answerered in the thread.

some people don't know what a "kernel" is when coming from windows. Get over it. Sometimes they need that little bit extra to get through it so we give them a few chances...

Then... unleash.

Aydinz, I did look through the News and Release section and I found this:

AMD users please update to the latest 10.5.5 updates. 10.5.4 and lower might face problems.

Discussion commenceth ---

I don't think that that says what it is. It looks more like a changelog or what is in the package...and No I do not know what a kernal is. Im still kinda new to this and I have never looked into the Voodoo kernal thing. I don't like to download something and use it until I know about what it is and if it is worth the risk of messing up my computer (If that can happen with voodoo)

Have you read a little more about the kernel to understand what it is?
Try here: http://developer.apple.com/documenta...422-TP30000532
They've got some good in-depth guides and explanations.

Wikipedia is also good (although I hate referencing it because it could have been written by anyone). This article is right on.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kernel_(computer_science)

Hope it helps explain things a bit. Now back to the problems at hand... any more?
