Remove and reinsert DVI connector to get graphics to work?

[Mordovia]

Hello all,

Ive spent ages trying to fathom out why my HD3000 was not being recognized and how if i boot with GraphicsEnabler=Yes i get a stuck spinning wheel. After ages of messing around i thought i would try plugging the board into the HDMI on the TV and it worked straight away when it booted.

So i started reading about and found that on occasions like this the port... HDMI, DVI, VGA etc. need to be 'hot plugged' in order to continue booting with full graphics acceleration etc.

Now i am trying a few methods of altering the the display table to see if it will seek the DVI port 1st but I've never done this before. Has anyone got any better ideas to get round this crappy hot plug issue? thanks!

Try passing graphics enabler = no at boot time...
You probably tried this already.

if i use Graphics Enabler = No the graphics card isn't recognised and shows 64mb shared RAM

Thanks though
