[QUOTE="Ceabax, post: 1728359, member: 382117"] My dedicated GPU is dead. I'm going to be buying a new iMac, but I'd like to try and get into the existing one and get a bit of work done, and wipe everything before hand. I can switch to my integrated graphics by booting into safe mode. Is there a way to force that change in normal boot? I'm running a 2009 iMac with OSX 10.6.2. I found gfxCardStatus, but there's a compatibility issue there with my iMac, so doesn't seem like that'll work for me. Am I boned? Or is there a solution that one of you fine folks can help me with. Thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
