I had my GA H77 DS3H working perfectly in 10.8.4 with GT640 .... GraphicsEnabler=No ....
I now want to use only onboard Graphics of my 3570 processor ... ie... the HD2500 ...with Chimera 2.2 ...

But the Full HD HDMI display is corrupt/garbled on boot .... but boots perfectly in Safe mode ; showing HD2500 and 768MB memory ....

This is what my org.chameleon.Boot.plist looks like and I have my HD2500 working with a 660ti. Like another poster said, make sure your init display is set to IGFX and make sure your org.chameleon.Boot.plist looks like mine for the graphics enabler, IGPlatformID and IGPEnabler, as well as the graphics mode (change to whatever resolution your monitor is supporting)

Is it posible with chimera 2.2 to have gt 640 and radeon 7750 working together on osx?

You will have to choose your initial display via BIOS. Choose IGFX if you want your main monitor through the HD4000 and plug it into that, or choose PCI if you want to go with the GTX. Both graphics should be enabled and should show in your system profiler. Personally I have my main monitor running off my 660ti but I have the HD2500 enabled for Airplay (make sure system is set to Mac mini 6,1 or 6,2 to use Airplay)

Wolf,

Set your initial display in your BIOS to PCI for the 640 and make sure the following is in your org.chameleon.Boot.plist:

Code: 
[COLOR=#942193][FONT=Courier]
<key>GraphicsEnabler</key>[/FONT][/COLOR]
[COLOR=#942193][FONT=Courier]        <string>No</string>[/FONT][/COLOR]
[COLOR=#942193][FONT=Courier]        <key>IGPlatformID</key>[/FONT][/COLOR]
[COLOR=#942193][FONT=Courier]	<string>01660003</string>
<key>IGPEnabler</key> [/FONT][/COLOR]
[COLOR=#942193][FONT=Courier]        <string>Yes</string>[/FONT][/COLOR]

That should enable both the HD2500 and use your 640 for main display.

Hope this helps. Also, as I mentioned to someone else make sure you set your system definition to Mac mini 6,1 or 6,2 if you are wanting to enable Airplay

The IGPlatformID key is not needed as the default value works fine.
