I recently purchased a Radeon 7000 PCI card (VGA only) off eBay to use in my Sawtooth (450 MHz 768 MB/ 20 GB) so that I could do screen rotation for a monitor I have mounted on its side.
Initially, I installed the card and hooked the monitor directly to it. No display. Then I hooked the ATI Rage 128 AGP card back up, and connected the monitor to THAT while keeping the Radeon card in the PCI slot. My display worked fine with the Rage card -- so I opened up the System Profiler to see if the Radeon was recognized. Under "Graphics" the AGP card is identified, the PCI card comes up with something like this: Type: VGA-Compatible Controller Bus: PCI Vendor ID: 0x1002 Device ID: 0x5159 I've run the August 2005 ROM update while booted up in Safe Mode (OS X 10.4.11) and STILL am not having any luck. The card itself is listed as Part Number 109-85500-01 which matches up as the Radeon 7000 Mac version and as far as I can tell there is no reason (outside of card malfunction) that this shouldn't work. Has anyone had this experience, and is there a solution? -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
