NEED HELP!!!! I have a PowerMac G3 Tower running Jag. and gobs of RAM with an ATI Radeon PCI card. I have performed the update for ATI Oct. I get intermittent S-video out to my TV. Needless to say that I only use this machine as my online Music player and Jukebox with iChat going full force.
Essentially I have the S-video to composite cable connected to my Onkyo receiver (vid-2) then out to my TV (composite in). I boot and no screen flash, no nothing for ever. At one point in time I swapped out for another Radeon that I had and knew was good and then was able to get video again after connecting it directly to the TV. So I then reattached the Composite video cable to the stereo and out to the TV with success. It still took a couple of minutes to get the video to come on. So needless to say last night I turn on the TV and the stereo, switch to Video 2 and boot up the Mac and no video., so I wait, then I wait some more, then I start pushing buttons and swapping cables and no video. HELP!!!!!! Damn thing. So I am not sure if anyone has come across this strange occurrence, but I am at wits end. Thanks Matthew Elliott. P.S. OH yeah, I have swapped cables and looked for bent pins and so on. -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
