Hi, ive just bought me this card, and i have two screens on it . I dont need a fast video card but just need it to edit music. i have a powermac G5 from june 2004. Sometimes when i startup my Mac the screen give a strange vieuw. its a static picked fense. Sometimes does one off the screens it and sometimes both. later when i startup the mac again it does not happen. Can it be that my powersupply not has enough capacity ?
An inadequate power supply might be your problem. Check the requirements on the video card and then look inside your case to see how many watts your power supply is putting out. If it is less than the number required by the card then this is likely your issue.
If you meet or exceed the amount necessary then it might be an issue with your drivers. Maybe sure you visit the ATI website for the most up to date and current drivers. Oftentimes many video card issues are solved by a simple driver update.

i've purchased brand new ''gforce fx 5500 inno3D 256mb (128 bit) w/ CRT DVI+TV out'' to replaced my burnt 64mb agp card. i did the proper installation of graphic drivers (included in the package) but still warcraft frozen throne doesnt work. the graphic card is working with windows and some other 2D games like diablo 2 (the same creator of warcraft which is blizzard ent.) i remove the new fx5500 and try to run warcraft with my onboard vga (32MB shared memory) and its working but certainly low grapic presentation. what might be the problem? hope you can help me. many thanks in advance!
