mwentosana Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Hi. I am trying to make this graphic card work in my laptop, although I read it's practically impossible and I stumbled across a situation I haven't read about before: I can run Chess, I can't watch Youtube videos because they lag like hell and the sound is all laggy to, I can't watch movies using VLC or Quicktime because both crash. I forced my resolution in boot plist. Also, in System Profiler I get this: Display: Type: GPU Bus: PCI VRAM (Total): 4 MB Vendor: ATI (0x1002) Device ID: 0x9712 Revision ID: 0x0000 Kernel Extension Info: No Kext Loaded Displays: Display: Resolution: 1366 x 768 Pixel Depth: 32-Bit Color (ARGB8888) Main Display: Yes Mirror: Off Online: Yes Am I getting somewhere or is this the usual ATI Radeon HD 4250 owners see? Also, does anyone know how I could trick my hackintosh to think it's running another GPU to get QE/CI working? I am running 10.6.8, btw. Thanks a lot, mwenta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mwentosana Posted April 17, 2012 Author Share Posted April 17, 2012 @HUSABER: I searched for a kext for my card, but none seem to work. Funny thing is since I played with some kexts around, Chess works and Youtube videos load, but then again, lag like hell. I just hope I'm on the way to make this card work. @iFIRE: I know that no one made it work till now, but I'll try everyday. Hopefully, I'll succeed and help all Radeon HD 4250 owners out there.
