It will tell you how

I have a Powercolor 4670 and have followed the guide started in this Thread as well as guide in the youtube link. I have not had any luck at all. Stock kexts on 10.6.4 and I just get blank screen on boot. Monitor then searches between analog and digital and then sleeps. I have tried all bootloaders. Anyone have any suggestions what else to try.
I wish I could find someone who actually has the Powercolor card. I have a feeling something is different with this one causing problems!

Hello,

I have an Asus EAH4670 512mb graphics card, and it did work correctly with 10.6.2 through vga out. However when upgraded to 10.6.4 it stopped working. I replaced the drivers with the 10.6.2 drivers but that didn't seem to do it either. I get scrambled-screen when using the vga boot file. In 10.6.2 I used the flicker boot file but that doesn't seem to work anymore for some reason. The drivers I replaced with the 10.6.2 drivers are:
ATISupport.kext, ATI4600Controller.kext and ATIFramebuffer.kext

I correctly replaced the boot files but it doesn't seem to do the trick. Any suggestions?

I have this video card and mobo. At the same time I have 4 gig bytes of ram. I've tried every trick in the book but for some reason I am unsuccessful in installing hackintosh on my desktop pc. I have several questions.

1. Do I set the timing of my memory setting to AUTO on the bios or do I need to type in the right timing settings?

2. I have a sapphire ati hd 4670 that uses dvi connection. What boot up program should I use? I've already tried i boot ati, empire efi, empire efi ati, chameleon. Nothing worked. I usually get kernel panics of my computer would just go to sleep mode. I don't get to the part where I see the language selection.

3. I have an asus wireless pci adapter. Would this be a problem at all? I also have an asus bluetooth adapter installed as well.

I have Gigabye 4670 512 MB ( 9490). I think i need boot_flicker, but i can't boot up system if i replace it with my current bootloader.. It's starts to load up, the "No Signal" appears; and ends up with a reboot... Any Fix !?

Little Update: 10.6.5 ATI Framebuffer drivers are working similiar as the 10.6.2 drivers did. I had to use old kexts for DVI to work.

I am sorry I cannot give all of you an adequate answer - if my steps don't work for you, you might have to look for the golden one of the possible Framebuffer + Framebuffer kext combinations for your case yourself.

Maybe use ATI_Init.kext by netkas as injector instead of bootloader (Set ATY,Flicker in Info.plist) and keep using your current booter. (Keep in mind; that kext is 32-Bit Kernel only)

Hi,

I have the XFX HD4650 512MB card, and since by 2 last weeks, I'd hard work to make this card enable QE/CI.

I've tested a lot of bootloaders, and now I've installed the last AnVAL ACPI Loader 5.0.8, and I got the black screen/no signal screen. On the both ports (DVI and VGA).

With AsereBLN and PC_EFI 10.6, I've got the flickered screen on load, on both ports too.

Until this time, the bootloader what I can't tested [again] are the Chameleon, but, I think that bootloader gonna fail on the same way.

My specs: iATKOS S3 10.6.3 (with original kexts modfied with my device ID [0x94981002] - I can't find the 10.6.2 kexts to ATI), without kext inject and with GraphicsEnabler=Y (tested with these bootloaders quoted).

What could be? Framebuffer? Kexts? (I think about these for the problem to be solved).
Or the version of Snow Leopard what have that error with this GPU?

Merry Xmas 4 All !

Hi there,

Thanks for posting this guide in a clear and thoughtful manner.

Unfortunately I am not having much luck in my situation. I am using a Mac Pro 1,1 with a PowerColor Radeon HD 4670 in PCI-e Slot-1

The device is recognized as an 0x9490, but I do not get DVI out on boot even after adding GraphicsEnabler to boot.plist from single-user mode. I have a GeForce 7300GT in the mac as well in slot-4 as the secondary card (working fine).

I am running OSX 10.6.5 with unmodified graphics drivers.

Thanks,

Ok I managed to get this thing working only HDMI. DVI might work but my monitor only has VGA and HDMI. VGA definitely not working. I altered the ATI4600Controller.kext and ATIRadeonX2000.kext that came on 10.6.6 after combo updating from a fresh 10.6.3 install by inserting 0x94981002 like it shows in the first post. I installed the chameleon 2.0 rc5 bootloader and enabled the GraphicsEnabler with it's preference pane.

thanks for this great booter

it works perfect with my Powercolor HD 4670 512MB PCS (dual DVI + tv-out) and snow leo 10.6.6 and stock kexts on 64bit

keep it on dude, it works really very well . . .
