I know my MDD came with one, but it didn't come with a ADC to VGA adapter, that I purchased at Griffin Technology.  But Griffin don't make a DVI to VGA.

Here's more locations to add to Bernie's.

Thanks for all the replies,
I need a DVI to Video Adapter, So I can hook to a television. Apple Had it for years until the G5 came out now they say its just for the G5.

Thanks Anyway.

Heres what I need for my G4 not G5,

DVI to Video Adapter

The Apple DVI to Video Adapter was designed specifically to allow Power Mac G5 systems users to connect from the DVI port to S-video or Composite video devices such as TVs, VCRs, or overhead projectors with S-Video or RCA (Composite) connectors. The Apple DVI to Video Adapter is designed to work with the DVI port on the Power Mac G5 system only.

Use a separate DVI to VGA Adapter for VGA video out for Power Mac G5 (included with all Power Mac G5 systems or available for order as a standalone kit).

You might have to go the DVI to VGA then VGA to S-video if all those adapters would work together.

The DVI to VGA adapters are available all over the place then you would need something like this:

VGA to S or composite video adapter

However there is a caveat in that your video card needs to have the ability to translate to the NTSC/PAL form otherwise it won't work. Which video card do you have?

Lacking that, you could also put in a separate video card with S-video capability built in.
Or you could adapt to the VGA and then get this:

VGA to Video converter

Hi,
I got the Radeon 9000 Pro in a Gigbit Ethernet G4.

Kinda weird that apple had them posted a couple months ago for the the G4 but now they are just for the G5.
