WOOHOOOO!!!! ************************** install the 8500 ati extensions
- 8500 installation does overwrite CarbonLib to 1.6 - warning about old system software, i just installed anyways. - requires OpenGL 1.2.1, i have 1.2, but i turn my OpenGL extensions off anyways. ************************** Umax S900, OS9.1 I read a thread not too long ago about dual monitor support on a Radeon 7000 Mac card. I bought my card about 2 years ago and it did have an adapter in the box to hook up a VGA monitor on the DVI port. I tried hooking it up back then and it never worked. I had to reinstall my Twin Turbo to get a second monitor. Foolishly, i took the second card out some time ago and tossed it out. Just plugging in a second monitor into the DVI port with an adapter does NOT work on my machine. Reading an old xlr8yourmac report solved the problem.... Here's the excerpt: "Before I was not able to run 2 VGA monitors (using supplied DVI-to-VGA adaptor for the second monitor on the same card). The second monitor would be recognized, but there would be no picture. No amount of changing of resolutions or changing of monitors made any difference. However, after applying the new Radeon 8500 drivers to essentially the same system as before, the second monitor started up and worked seamlessly." __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
