Hi,

I have a problem with my PNY GTX 560: it is not working.

I've recently installed Mac OS X Lion (10.7), updated it with Delta Update (now with 10.7.3) but I have a BIG problem: my video card is not recognized. I followed this guide http://tonymacx86.com/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=35148 (and using the proper dev_id for the 560, not TI, AKA 1201) but it is still not recognized. Always the 1024*768 crappy resolution (w 3Mb of video memory, thanks VESA). :banghead:

And the main problem is: if I try to add the well-known ATY_Init.kext (and removing GraphicsEnabler), I have absolutely no video outputs on both DVI (two ports) and HDMI :crazy: ... Quite embarrassing ! I have a dual screen setup, both on DVI :/ Without it, and with GraphicsEnabler, I am still on 1024*768 (I can climb up to 1280*1024 with Graphics Mode ...) ...
So, what I should do ?

Here is my exact config:
CPU: Intel core i5 2500k @3,3GHz
RAM: Corsair 8Gb (2x4Gb) 1600MHz DDR3
GPU: PNY GTX 560 w 1Gb of GDDR5
MB: Asus P8P67-M (f**k this µATX case)
HDD1: Samsung SATAII 500Gb HDD w 16Mb of cache (with Lion)
HDD2: WesternDigital CaviarGreen 500Gb w 32Mb cache (Win7 and FreeBSD)

Thanks ;)
 
okay I just solved my problem : just replaced PCIRootUID=1 with PCIRootUID=0, it seems that Asus P8P67-M is different from most motherboards using 0 (maybe too because my GPU is on black PCI-E slot
