Hey guys, I have an issue launching source games with Graphics Enabler=No. I need it on No so my three monitors will work, because of the DVI disabling issues. When I open any game from Steam it simply launches for a split second and then crashes, I have tried PCIRootUID=1 and still nothing. Any ideas?
 
You have to set it to Yes and add these lines.

<key>AtiConfig</key>
<string>Bulrushes</string>
<key>AtiPorts</key>
<string>4</string>
 
Still Crashes on launch :/
EDIT: I thought it would be worth noting that it is recognized as 6xxx

Plug the cable in the other DVI port.

Sorry, I forgot to make this clear, I am using BOTH Dvi ports and the DP

Only one DVI port works. I mean you have to use just one. On the HD6850 only two display can work simultaneously.

That is not true, I am using 3 Monitors as we speak

:problem:

I can't explain it why, but the AMD card only works at 100% when GE is being set to "Yes", AtiPorts and AtiConfig are in the boot.plist and on HD68xx cards you using only one DVI port. Because with these settings only one can work. If you use the other one, it won't work.

Damn, so you are saying if 2 DVI devices are plugged in, that causes the error?
EDIT:Is HDMI counted as a DVI device?
