Hello!
I have been happily "lurking" tonymac for the longest time, but on this day I emerge with a problem. I am attempting to use two graphics cards on the same machine (in order to use 4 monitors). I have had this machine up and running mac OSX and windows before, but only with a GTX 480 gpu. A while ago I added on my 9600GT and while windows had no problem with it, I booted into Mac and I got the angry "grey screen of death".
I have tried booting off just my installation USB, but got the same effect. I know both GPU's work with Mac OSX (as I had the 9600GT in a different hackintosh before!). But I need to get them working on the same machine.
I have considered that maybe the different drivers neccessary are causing the problem? What if I was to get two GTX 480's? Would it work then? I would have no real problem getting another GTX 480 as I could SLI them in windows for my games... Any suggestions or suggestions to cheaply get 4 monitors running would be great!
My specs:
Intel i7 920 @ 4GHz
evga x58 SLI motherboard
6 GB Mushkin (optimal)
1010W PSU
