Fusion9 Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 I doubt you can put a video card on a mac, last time I heard its just a little square with alot of wires and chips.

four! Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 ^Fusion9 are you simple.... http://www.techpowerup.com/downloads/ They have the flashing software P.S. MAKE SURE YOU BACK UP YOUR ORIGINAL BIOS (I DIDNT AND RUINED MY RADEON9800XT 256MB, ITS A PAPERWEIGHT NOW!)

G-Force Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 (I DIDNT AND RUINED MY RADEON9800XT 256MB, ITS A PAPERWEIGHT NOW!) Offtopic: Get a replacement BIOS from here and flash it back using a PCI card.

gotoh Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 there are a lot of resources on the web for PC video card flashing for Mac PPC use. just goole StrangeDogs and you'll find what you need. However, there's no Mac ROM for PC FX 5700, so this is not the card you're going to get working in a G4 or G5...
