Hello,

display preferences crashes and I can not choose any extended resolution (since DP1 ... problème isn't solved with DP6) on my Macbook pro 15 2012 NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M. Shall I do a full wipe and install or is it a common problem in the beta ?

Thanks,
A

I have the MacBook with the same GPU and I haven't encountered anything like you describe. I have connected to an external monitor and have had no crashing issues. Only things I have encountered relating to GPU is a performance drop from DP2-DP4, it picked back up in DP5 and is even better in DP6.

Have you tried Nvidia web drivers? http://us.download.nvidia.com/OH74WaRQJqEYOCnaqXNdHsnFt4J8zQnN/WebDriver-346.03.01b06.pkg
Thanks for your answer ! It could be the upgrade progress from Lion or an issue related to the french localization that crashes the display preferences - but I'll try the drivers
