I need some help to use PCI-e + Onboard Intel HD Graphics at the same time

[petyaaa89]

Hey Guys,

I have a problem. I want to use my Hack Pro, with 3 display. I have a Sapphire HD6450 2GB DDR3 VGA, and I also have an Intel HD graphic adapter on my motherboard. Luckily, my system recognize both of them.



But only two displays works, them connected to the Sapphire. First of all I tried to connect the third display to the Sapphire, but there is no solution to do it, becuase it has three ports: VGA ( it is used by main display ) HDMI ( it is used by my HD TV ) and a DVI-D, and there is no workable connector that can translate a digital signal to analog, so it is out of the game. That is why I want to use my onboard graphics.

I tried to set my onboard graphics as primary adapter. It started to boot, but when the OS X booted up, the display connected to onboard graphics, just freezed.



Can I activate my onboard graphics card in OS X?

My config:
ASRock H61M-VS-B3
Intel Pentium G620 @2.59
Sapphire HD6450 2GB DDR3
Kingston 8 GB DDR3

OS Type: Mac OS X 10.8.2
(And I use pithecia patch in the bootloader.)

If anyone has an idea to make it work, please tell me!

Thanks in advice for your help!

OS X does not support HD Graphics in your G620.

It's okay, but recognized it. You can see it on the first picture.
How it is possible?

An interesting assertion, given that two 2010 Apple products use these graphics (albeit with optional switching to secondary GPUs).

Well you can also try a VGA cable with a DVI-I dual link adaptor! which will basically provide you Digital and analog signal

Yes, I did. But the it's a difference between DVI-I and DVI-D connector.



As you can see, DVI-D have no four pin on the right.

But thank you at all!
