I have one of these in my Gig Ethernet. Just be warned, it is sensitive to
higher temps. Make sure you are cleaning out dust on a regular basis. Once you
get the power issue sorted, any future video issues, your first step should be
to check airflow, and temps.

From my knowledge on the PC cards you need to tape the #3 and #11 pin and the rom needs to flashed for it to work... I plug one in on an old G4 and it didn't boot up at all... Now I never heard or knew of a MAC 9800??? If that is what it is does this card have a fan on it? Maybe if it does it
Thanks everyone, for all the feedback and suggestions.
I will try taking the power off the optical drive connectors next, and see
what happens. I have the molex for the 9800 running off the hard drive
connector for the drive cage under the optical bay, where I have two SCSI
drives (RAID).

If it is a failing or marginal power supply you could try removing other
cards and running the hard drives off an external power supply. Then if it
does reboot when hot, you'll know it's your power supply. If it still
doesn't then maybe there's something wrong with the video card.

The second thought is that maybe the PSU itself isn't capable of providing
enought power for all of the components. And: warmed-up components may draw
more power.
FWIW I had the same problem when updating my Mystic to the flashed
version of a 9800 pro card (taped pins). The general consensus

hi, fwiw, years before i owned a powermac, i used slackware
exclusively on a tyan tiger dual palomino board with 4 gigs of ram and
had a firegl card that needed a molex connection for extra power to
the gpu. now all of the finery of my memory is gone from this
experience, but the quirks fro
