I had the same problem with a beige G3DT using a PCI video card. I tried everything and even went so far as to remove the on-board video port but it never would work right. That'e the only Mac I ever had that problem on any other Mac although I don't think I ever tried a video card on my c500. -- Ron http://krowmagnum.4mg.com/ -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
