copperboy Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 Hi. Yesterday I installed a less-than-1 Gigabytes game -- Need For Speed Undergound 2. Yes, it is native Intel. When I played the game, sometimes the screen is crappy, sometimes the screen is filled with grey boxes, and the worst of all, quitting the game would result in a black screen, and the only way to get back to the desktop was to restart. I was thinking that my Hackintosh was the same as a real Mac except for the Mic & Webcam. And today, I installed a full version Need For Speed Carbon, which is native Intel too. I dragged the game to the Application folder and double clicked on it. The screen went black(LED indicator on the LCD went blinking, I bet you know what this means), with sound coming from the game. I pressed the Cmd+Q, then the sound disappeared, but the screen is still black. I had to restart to get back to the desktop. My LCD has two ports -- DVI and VGA. I detach the DVI connector, and connect the VGA port. And now everything is fine. I think there might be some problems with the Natit drive, please help solve the problem. One more question, what would I do if I want to update the natit drive to its latest version? My hardware specs: Pentium E2160 oc 2.4GHz / 2GB DDR2 667 / 160GB SATA HDD / MSI 945GC Motherboard / 7300GT with 256MB DDR3 DVI,VGA,S-Video / Maya W202D 1680*1050 LCD My software specs: iATKOS v1.0r2 (EFI) , Kalyway 10.5.2 combo update, Stock Kernel, Leopard Graphic Update. Video drives: natit from iATKOS v1.0r2 DVD. (I've no idea what version of it.)

copperboy Posted May 28, 2008 Author Share Posted May 28, 2008 It's too bad. The problem remains even when I have gfx-efi installed. Sorry, the interface is Chinese. I can assure you that the CI/QE are supported in the picture.

copperboy Posted June 6, 2008 Author Share Posted June 6, 2008 this problem remains when the OS is updated to 10.5.3; and gfx-efi doesn't help solve this.

Krazubu Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 This is something with the NVCAP, change it according to your hardware. There's a sticky explanation thread in the graphic cards subforum. Natit doesn't need to be updated. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/104454-dvi-has-problems-with-3d-games/#findComment-773953 Share on other sites More sharing options...
