Graphire78 Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 hi picked up the same card last week when my good ol'8400 conked off. works perfectly with iATKOS 10.5.7 - i was on iATKOS 10.5.5 before with my 8400. suggest you upgrade - will make life much easier+besides, it is one of the easiest+most stable of iATKOS releases - all your programs+stuff remain intact!!! give it a shot. cheers Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/192796-1056-with-nvidia-9500gt-working-but-cold-boot-issues/#findComment-1303462 Share on other sites More sharing options...

After a few presses of the restart button the machine will actually start and remain stable once logged in. any more advice would be helpful. cheers Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/192796-1056-with-nvidia-9500gt-working-but-cold-boot-issues/#findComment-1305576 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graphire78 Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 sorry. cant think of anything. could be a hardware problem too since you boot normally sometimes. maybe you cld try different combinations when installing iATKOS 10.5.7. BIOS settings??? I had faced the cold boot issues with the 9500GT & 10.5.5 now everything works perfectly, except shutdown - dont really care abt that one though. All the best.
