First of all, my apologies. I originally posted this in the "Post Installation" section of the Forum as I had not noticed this section. My bad. I have now read through this section and could not find any discussing the problem I am having. Maybe it's just me. I really hope some one has a clue how to help me with this one.
I've just had to re-install OSX due to a hard drive problem and now when I set GraphicsEnabler=Yes in org.chameleon.plist it does not take effect and it is still booting up with GraphicsEnabler not running.
Here is my org.chameleon.Boot.plist incase it helps anyone to shine some light on this....

And still it boots showing.......
ATI Radeon HD NI40:
Chipset Model: ATI Radeon HD NI40
Type: GPU
Bus: PCIe
PCIe Lane Width: x8
VRAM (Total): 1024 MB
Vendor: ATI (0x1002)
Device ID: 0x6739
Revision ID: 0x0000
The graphics card is an XFX 6850 and I know it works flawlessly with GraphicsEnabler because it has been up till now.
When I have had it running under GraphicsEnabler the card shows up as "ATI Radeon HD 6850". I just need to know how to get back there.
Before installing Chimera when I was using iBoot and gave it the command 'Graphicsenabler=Yes' then all was wonderful and worked, so why does it not work when booting it from the hard disk?
Is there anyway to completely remove the boot loader and start afresh?
Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated.
