I think you mean Geforce 7800 graphic card.
Was it for Mac or PC? Was it for G5 only, or G4 also?

I think there's some hack to do for adapting these cards into G4s.
Did you read some webpages about this on the Net?

It's possible. A lockup after a while, sounds like heating issues, or maybe
power.

Did you check the power requirements of the card against the G4 power
supply?
Recent video cards are quite power hungry.
