PCI 9200 Radeon os compatability?
Posted by: Ncc74656 on 2022-03-26 15:31:57
ive done some research, ive found a couple posts of users running mac os 8.6 with a 9200 but im uncertain if this is 2D only or if it looses 3D/acceleration support?

many report 9.2.2 being the lowest OS that a 9200 properly functions on. is this correct?

my system is a PPC 603e. so it can only run 9.1, right? from what i read 9.2.2 is not compatible. so i may not be able to use the 9200 with out a L2 G3 upgrade card?

would 9.2.2 run poorly on a G3 upgrade (say 250mhz) in a 603e 6360?

it looks like the radeon rage 128 is the most compatible card for os 7.6+ but id like better gaming performance.

anyone shed more light?

You can hack 9.2.2 to run. https://eshop.macsales.com/osxcenter/OS9Helper/Framework.cfm?topic=32
