I have put a Radeon 7000 in mine and i got a very slight bump, but it still isn't playable. The only solution i have found is to use something along the lines of Videobox and let the computer convert it into something that the machine can play. I have a 400 bumped to 450 G4 Yikes with 768 of memory. I haven't tried enabling the Quartz Extreme Patch because I am updated to 10.4.11 and I heard it stop working prior to that. I don't have any other PCI cards in my machine so even if I did enable the patch I wouldn't know if it would slow down my ata bus. I don't know how the bus's are laid out on this yikes board. I think.. THINK.. they went to two PCI bus's in the earlier G3 machines but they had scsi in them.
If anyone does have a block diagram of the Yikes/G4 or B&W/G3 block diagram of where all the buses are I would love to take a look.. I have goggled to no end trying to find them. Thanks!!! and Good luck on flash problem Hope you find a solution (short of tossing the G4 in heap and replacing it)..
