It appears that the Sapphire pci Radeons may no longer be flashable to mac as the manufacturer has apparently replaced the original 128k rom chip with one half size at 64k - and the mac rom requires the full 128k regardless of the flash method used. The part numbers are unchanged so identifying the 64k rom cards is quite difficult. More info is on the MacLife site if anyone is interested.

Thats easy to fix. A larger flashRom can be bought on www.digikey.com and the soldering job should take 15 minutes.
