Hi.

I have just discovered that some people have flashed their graphic cards to get it to work on mac!!

I read that that the one I have (ATI Radeon Family 9100) is well supported after flashing. (I said WTF? that's great!) So I downloaded the winflash2017 aplication to do that.

I ran the exe and It recognised my card (runing on windows, obiusly). Buut, I haven't got the firmware to flash it. I could load the image to my device if I had it, but I don't even know which firm should I use.

I think that the 8500 would be functional, but I'm not sure, and I don't wanna have a buch on unusefull circuits.

 

The main problem is that the MAC OX 10.5.6. recognizes it as an 8500 and when I try to install a specific program, it says that I have 0 VRAM and that 64 MB are required (but I have exactly 64 Mb!). And appart from fixing this issue, I'd like to find a way to enable some kind of hardware aceleration, 'cause I find some elements of the sistem a bit slower than in Tiger (for example the Dock).

 

Thanks for any suggestion ^^
