I've been battling video issues with this install, and I'm giving up because my head is spinning and I have lost focus. I need help.
I'm running a Asus N80Vb with a Core 2 Duo 2Ghz and 4GB of RAM. It has the NVidia Geforce 9300M GS 512MB video chipset. I used IATKOS S3 v2 to install OS 10.6.3. I used Natit for the video card. I get standard 1280x800 resolution, but most things that require the video chipset for processing just don't work (Flash Player, WoW, etc). I'm pretty sure that my issue is with QE/CI not being turned on, but it could be more than that. I'm not even sure that everything is running in 64bit mode. I've gone round and round trying to get things working right, using tips from here, InsanelyMac, and other sites, but tonight the fix has eluded me. I will gladly post any information one might need to steer me in the right direction if someone is willing to help me out. Oh, I'm in Iraq, so the slow internet has been one of my hang-ups. I am returning soon, and when I do, I would like to be able to update to 10.6.8 (I do have the 10.6.7 Combo Update downloaded already) and retain all the functionality gained from whatever I'm offered here. I've downloaded lots of stuff that I can use to fix this issue, including NVCAP Maker (along with the ROM for this chipset), OSx86 tools, Legacy Kernel 10.6.8 and more.
Thanks in advance,
Jake
