Video card issue
Posted by: waynestewart on 2016-03-14 08:24:48
I had a MDD retuned to me after many years away. It was setup with a single 1.25 and a Geforce4. So I decided to upgrade a little. First started with the easiest one, the video card, installed a Radeon 9000 Pro.

No video.

Tried another.

No video.

Third one worked.

First two work in other MDDs but not in that one. I’m a little stumped.

Are the cards flashed for Mac?

No, original Apple issue

Oh well, it was worth a shoot.

Have you wiped down the card's edge connector with some alcohol to make sure it's clean?

I tried cleaning the edge connector but no luck with that one MDD

Are you using an Apple monitor with ADC connection?

I tried it with both an ADC and a DVI monitor.
