Ok so I bought a gen 1 (non-2002) quicksilver for 10 bucks from a

. I bought a radeon 9600 pulled from a g5 powermac. I figured it
would work, but for some reason the computer can't figure out what
to do with it based on the KEXTs ATI supplied. I tried updating to
10.5.8, updating the KEXTs via ATI's software on the webs. Nothing.
Still blue screen and curser when I try to start it. I know its
these KEXTs and how the graphics card is responding to them based
on the fact that if I remove them completely the computer starts in
normal mode just fine. So my first question: Anyone got any ideas
of things I can do to try and get the card fully functional before
I just blow money on a different model card?
I used one in a G4. Not a KEXT problem, a hardware issue. There are 2
pins you need to disable do to apple using them for ADC connectors.
Here are instructions:
