xserve 3,1 resolution reset to high black screen
I can't believe there is not an easy fix to such a basic problem as screen resolution. I have tried resetting nvram pram, safe boot changing from dvi to VGA both cable and port on monitor.
I have a KVM and during bboot had to jump to different machine to set boot order came back resolution reset now tried all that including unplugging etc and nothing.
Such a simple issue with no solution is mind boggling very quickly Mac is dropping to the bottom of useful OS for me with so many basic features and solutions and one response reinstall. I have no other machine to remote in, plus its a server with limitations for remote rights. I was using the xserve to set up my Asus 1u and making the USB boot which I can't do and my Mac mini is first gen with no network access I will try through my android phone. No iPhone iPad or other stuff of that nature. Searching hours between calls and no solution I have seen besides reinstall I will take a sledgehammet to all that is apple in my house if you the programmers are that short sighted with issues as a resolution change that just involves safe boot.
