Rammjet Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 Some people have. Some people haven't.

MacApprentice Posted August 15, 2006 Author Share Posted August 15, 2006 Thx, support seems bad I might be getting a X1800GTO instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarryBar Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 i have just ordered the x1900 GT of Powercolor. I will post the result here and in the forum in the thread of the Borisbadenov solution Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacApprentice Posted August 15, 2006 Author Share Posted August 15, 2006 Thx, after some thought and reading I might still be going for a X1900GT, as I could use the DVI out in windows anyway (I don't need to run OSX for my PJ anyway) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Chupacabra Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Works with JaS 10.4.7 and/or boris installer - BUT only with a DVI-to-VGA adaptor (so far). Just picked up one yesterday, so I will keep you posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Chupacabra Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 ATI X1900 GT worked w/ DVI-to-VGA adaptor (as many people have done already). DVI gives black screen... unless I eliminate all ATI extensions. Then it works thru DVI port, but only at 800x600 without any acceleration. Went on the ATI site, and there are tons of Device IDs available. The X1950 only has a handful, so I may return this card and get the next model up. BTW - My X1600 XT works flawlessly thru DVI, though only half available RAM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
