DiaboliK Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 you would have to flash it to a pc rom on the video card for our hackintosh's can see them but i dont know if it would work well or not. just might have to give it a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asap18 Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 DiaboliK, i think he wants to do the exact opposite and flash it with a mac rom to use it in a g4. I recommend you search for your card and see if it has a mac firmware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vEmpire Posted December 24, 2006 Author Share Posted December 24, 2006 Hi can anyone guide me where to look for the Mac rom so I can flash my PC PNY GeForce 3 TI200? I am a noob and I can't find any Mac rom to flash. Please help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karmatose Posted December 25, 2006 Share Posted December 25, 2006 (edited) Look here. Its where i got the info to do my Radeon7000 flash. They have roms and everything http://strangedogs.proboards40.com/ Edited December 25, 2006 by karmatose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asap18 Posted December 25, 2006 Share Posted December 25, 2006 well its not that easy, i highly doubt there are any mac roms, i think the geforce 4 though has a mac version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karmatose Posted December 25, 2006 Share Posted December 25, 2006 If I could remember my password for that site i would go on there and prove you wrong, but yeah. Just look around and I promise you will find a Mac rom for that card. Theres more hacked ATi roms than Nvidia, but im sure there is a rom out there for it.

Johnny Cactus Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 I have a GeForce 3 that I flashed a few years back. The ti may or may not work. It may work without flashing. Probably not... I would look for a 5700 le on pricewatch or somewhere. The card is a budget version that nvidia uses a slower clock speed on. You can OC it to 5700 or 5700 ultra specs. GeForce 3 is a little slow these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
consolation Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 There is a GF3 ROM & instructions on strangedogs, and the card's been flashed successfully AFAIK. However, unless you want it for running OS9, there would be little benefit in using it on a G4. You'd be better off getting a cheap 9800pro, which is a straight flash with no hardware mods.
