kankraka Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 changed from a nvidia card (tnt 2 ) to an ATI 9550 on my old p4, OSX won't boot in anything but safe mode now, it halts when it tries to verify the video card family , quite obvious as to why it's doing that...but how do i fix it?

fabcat Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 I don't know how to fix it but I think you probably need some drivers for it. Maybe this thread will lead you in the right direction: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=23498 They mention a few things about older ati cards. Good luck, Fabcat Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/33507-changed-video-card-wont-boot/#findComment-238128 Share on other sites More sharing options...
