Hi all,

Firstly, I love this site! You people are amazing!

Now, I have a build which everything has gone smoothly except for getting both of my monitors to work. :(

Specs are:

H97M-D3H
i7 4790
16gb Memory
256gb Sandisk SSD (have to confirm model)

I'm attempting to use both monitors using the onboard graphics chip. When I try to launch OS X with 2 displays the system will not boot, it shows the apple logo and loads about 20% through. The board has HDMI, DVI, and VGA. I've tried all combinations using these 3 ports but still cannot get it to work. I used Multibeast to install the Intel graphics but this hasn't made a difference. I think I may be doing something wrong.

I tried looking into the OS X logs but I couldn't see any critical errors that would explain what is going on. That being said, I'm very new to this and I could be looking in the complete wrong area. Should I be looking elsewhere to determine what issues are happening?

If its a matter of buying a dedicated card to use both monitors then I'm happy to do so, just trying to work everything out. Thanks so much for this great resource!
 
I got this to work! I realised I had the Intel graphics option selected in Multibeast which is actually for HD3000 chips. This board apparently uses HD4600 so now its all good!
