okay so i updated to 10.8.4 and get black screen.But i am testing this laptop with no internal monitor.Internal Monitor is out.I'm trying through VGA and HDMI ports.I am using a 42inch LG TV and i think LG TV should be displaying in system info.


The OS boots up fine up until monitor detection at the end of its boot thats when i get no video signal on tv. boot flags -x or -f same cant get in OSX.

Ok i got full graphics acceleration.Updated to 10.8.4 was only getting black screen on VGA and HDMI.I know OS X was detecting card but something was not right.So i updated the VGA bios to a newer version.When i booted back up screen resolution was at 1920x1080x32.I have been trying everything with this card EFI string you name it.I think OS X does not like certain bios in certain vga cards.Remember what i said about LG TV in profile? Now it is there.You can also see the difference in rom version.VGA only works and black screen with HDMI.
