Hello all,
First, I'd like to thank the community. I now have a fantastic new Hackintosh up and running, and I'm really enjoying my new machine.
To replicate all of my previous functionality, I'm trying to get a 3rd display online. To that end, I pulled one of the graphics cards out of my previous mac, a Mac Pro (1,1) circa 2006. It's a nVidia 7300 GT. It was working just fine in the last machine.
My current hackintosh setup:
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-P67X-UD3-B3
CPU: i5-2500k
Video Card: Gigabyte GV-577UD-1GB (Radeon HD 5770)
Right now I'm using the 5770 with two displays, and that's great. I've been trying to get the old nvidia card working, but it just doesn't like that idea.
I've noticed immediately after selecting my boot drive in Chimera I get the attached error displayed on screen:
What I've tried doing thus far:
Currently in com.apple.Boot.plist I have GraphicsEnabler set to Yes.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can get this card working, or if there's anything I haven't tried that I should?
Thanks!

What I've tried doing thus far:
- Installed NVIDIA 256.02.05f01 from MultiBeast
Modified /System/Library/Extensions/NVDANV50Hal.kext/Contents/PkgInfo to include the Device ID of my card
