The VRAM banks are as follows: 7200: three sockets; either none, one or three may be filled, no other combinations are valid. Others which have VRAM: four sockets; either two or four may be filled, no other combinations are valid. If you smoked one VRAM position, then only two are usable. -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
