Hi Everyone,

Damn... I'm almost getting creazy trying to flash my PC Voodoo5 5500 PCI...

I still need some help. Could anybody PLEASE help me?

After a very long time spent looking for a flash tool and reading lots of
forums, I've finaly got it...

I've "successfully" flashed the card so it's shown on apple system profile
as shown below:

Slot B1
Display card
Card type:    display
Card name:    3dfx,Voodoo5
Card model:    Voodoo5
Card ROM #:    Not available
Card revision:    1
Card vendor ID:    121A

Ok! Good boy! But DAMN... This @#$% just doesn�t work... When a hook up my
multisync display (a samsung 750p) on it, all I got is a blank screen in
standy by mode...

I've tried almost everything: 3dfx drivers (1.0.1, 1.1.0, 1.1.2, 1.1.3b),
removed'em all, removed 3dfx and display extensions, realocated the card
(tried everything on each and every single slot), removed my usb card, reset
cuda (zillions times), zapped pram... And no @#$% deal...

Oh... I've also changed PCI bus clock to 30 MHz (CPU bus to 75 MHz) and got
just the same...

So... This is what I've got:

Beige G3/266 MT (75 MHz CPU bus clock; 30 MHz PCI bus clock), XLR8 G4/400
Upgrade card (set to 450), XLR8 USB/PCI card, 384 Mb RAM (128Mb + 256Mb), LG
CD-RW 24x10x40x, Mac OS 9.1 and a NOT @#$% WORKING PC VOODOO 5 5500 PCI
VIDEO CARD... Hehehehe

So.. This is what I got to you, guys:


1- Does anyone have a WORKING flashed PC Voodoo5?
2- Was it a REALY original PC card?
3- Where was it flashed, Mac or PC?
4- Have you ever got blank screen or something like that on boot?



I'm getting pretty confused here... Could anybody PLEASE help me?


Thank you VERY VERY much!
