Re: iTunes and AVI format

Re: Need help - Video card compatibility for my G4

That card looks like it could be converted to work on a Mac but the ROM would need to be flashed with a converted Mac ROM. Usually that's done on a PC with a PCI video card or onboard video. Then there's a chance you will need to edit an extension to make it work in OS X. Not for the faint of hear

The 6200, even with pins 3 & 11 disabled by tape or cutting the traces, is still considered incompatible with the MDD model G4s. But it won't hurt anything to try it for yourself. On Apr 20, 12:40 pm, beecaretaker wrote: > Adam, > You will not hurt the MDD by trying the card, the incompatibility

Formatting a 1tb Hard disk?

I installed a sonnet pci sata controller in my MDD.. then installed a 1TB hard disk in the hard drive bay with appropriate power and data cables. I then start up the MDD and disk utility to format the new drive. Choose "Apple Partition Map" with one large partition freezes up disk util

Adam, You will not hurt the MDD by trying the card, the incompatibility is due to the provision of the proprietary Apple monitor connector (the name escapes me for the moment), Apple used a couple of unused (at the time) pins on the AGP slot for power switching so that the monitor button could tur
