Title: Need Non-ATI DVI graphic card- OS9.2- quicksilver dual 800Mhz
Post by: vidsolve on September 10, 2006, 02:06:18 PM

Hi, I have a quicksilver 200 dual 800 mhz G4 tower, and i need a graphic card not made by ATI that will work in os 9.2 as well as osx on this cpu. I have a video editing program that cost me $10k that must run on os9 that does not like ati drivers for some strange reason, and i run photoshop CS2 in osx, so does anyone know of a card that will fit the bill? will nvidea card work? it has to have a DVI-I out put as i have to power a apple 20" aluminum (latest one) cinema screen that has DVI-I connector only. It is the latest aluminum 20 inch cinema screen. thanks, john from hawaii

Just curious here... I run an ATI Xclaim VR card with OS9. It did have a mysterious problem once (actually the Video Player app that came with it) but a clean install fixed it. I still don't know why. What does it do???

By the way, another member from Hawaii lurks about the board. Maybe you're close.

Hi ya Gregg, I see you met John.  Great!  John and I have been corresponding the past two days from the Honolulu Craigslist.


Aloha John and welcome to TS!  I know we spoke on the phone, but, I wanted to leave an answer here for future references as well.


Nvidia GeForce3 video card should work in both OS 9.2.2 and OS X and possibly in Leopard.
