Hello Simon, A very old trick, mostly working (at least when booting in 9.2.2) on Macs of the Sawtooth generation and before: Just connect a videocable or a single converter to the AGP card and try again. One of my archives-Macs, a Sawtooth/450 has the original AGP (ATI Rage 128 Pro) and 2 PCI (ATI Rage 128) out of a Yikes and 3 monitors oc. When I sometimes need the monitor connected to the AGP (to check a Mac for a client or so), I simply connect a VGA -> Mac connector to the AGP. Works OK.
