[Solved] Distorted image on display; Mountain Lion HD4000; p8z77-m pro
I'm having issues with my hackintosh properly detecting my display after the apple logo screen on bootup. I can see the gray apple logo fine but when it gets to the login screen the image looks all distorted with lines and it looks like there are three copies spread across the display.
I used iBoot for ivy bridge to install ML 10.8.2 and Multibeast 5.2.1 with options for inboard audio, Ethernet LAN, and the core DSDT free option.
I can get everything working except for this "monitor resolution detection on bootup" issue.
If I put my computer to sleep and then wake, the display looks perfect out of DVI at 1920x1080.
unplugging DVI and plugging back in does not help though.
I've already tried modifying the chameleon.plist with Graphics Mode=1920x1080x32 and also tried setting HD4000PlatformId=8, with no success.
Boot options that didn't help - PCIRootUID= 0 (1 allows only 1024x768 but undistorted), GraphicsEnabler=No
Here's my setup:
i5 3570K using the IGPU HD4000
ASUS p8z77-m pro
auria eq276w (27" ips capable of 2650x1440, dvi, hdmi, dp)
fractal design define mini case
Has anyone been able to fix this issue???
im wondering if I wouldn't have this problem with a dedicated graphics card.
it definitely would make my display shine at 2650x1440 instead of the 1920x1080 that I'm restricted to by my motherboard.
As an aside can anyone recommend a decent but not too expensive compatible video card?
I'll mostly be doing photo editing and some light gaming/video editing.
Appreciate any help on the first issue!!!
