Boots to desktop but I get no graphics (Blank Screen)
I know it boots because I can mount the shared drives
Am using the graphicsenabler in chameleon

What could be causing this?

Gonna try Nvenabler and see if that fixes it

Installed Nvenabler in /S/L/E same problem.
Efi Strings also got me the blank screen problem.
Without any enabler I get generic vesa graphics.

Tried replacing 10.6.1 Nvidia kexts and 10.6.2 nvidia kexts but with both I get a blank blue screen

Files I replaced were:
GeForce.kext
NVDANV40Hal.kext
GeForce7xxxGLDriver.bundle
NVDANV50Hal.kext
GeForceGA.plugin
NVDAResman.kext
GeForceGLDriver.bundle
NVSMU.kext
GeForceVADriver.bundle

Should I try replacing any other files?

During a verbose boot I do see NVDANV50Hal loaded and registered

I also replaced the 9800GT with a GTX 260 and still get blankscreen

Did you add your cards device ID to NVDAResman?

Is your monitor plugged in to the port that's closest to the motherboard?

Tried both ports (Upper-Lower) with and without a DVI-VGA dongle in unoccupied port

Added my device id to NVDANResman and NVDANV50Hal and my video works! I had to turn off overscan because the screen was a little to big. But it now works in 10.6.3
