Iphone unlock imei 2017 free online. Updates!
I recently got an Intel-based Mac Pro (MacPro2,1). This is one of the systems that Apple abandoned way too soon. It came with an ATI Radeon X1900 card, and I was able to flash one of my old AMD Radeon HD5870 cards for use in it.
Load the kernel extension for the flashing (sudo kextload ATIROMFlasher.kext), then run the flash utility: sudo open ATIFacelessFlash.app. Shut down your computer, pull the old card, and boot up with the monitor connected to the new one. Everything should work great, and you should now have an ATI Radeon HD 4870 for Mac. Sep 30, 2010. The last official video cards which supported the boot screen display in the classic Mac Pro were the AMD Radeon HD 7950 (Mac Edition) and the Nvidia GTX-680 (Mac Edition). Unofficially it is possible to 'flash' the firmware yourself of the AMD HD 7950, HD 7970, R9-280 and R9-280x to have Mac firmware and a single reseller custom modifies. Aug 19, 2011. Make Offer - XFX AMD Radeon HD 5750 1GB DDR5 PCI-Express DP HDMI Dual DVI Graphics Video Card. Sapphire Radeon HD5750 1 GB DDR5 2DVI/HDMI/DisplayPort PCI-Express Video Card. $39.00 +$8.85 shipping. Make Offer - Sapphire Radeon HD5750 1 GB DDR5 2DVI/HDMI/DisplayPort PCI.
My model of Radeon HD5870 is the 'Built by AMD' reference design.
Stay tuned for firmware updates.
Note that much of this page is for older video cards: AGP-based for PowerPC systems.
There have been several things that have bothered me when trying to upgrade Mac systems:
- Apple seems to hate supporting old hardware.
- Devices made for Apple computers seem to cost up to ten times what they do for PC, even if they use identical hardware or even slower components.
- Third party support usually comes from un-reliable sources. People that can't keep a website up, people that lose interest in helping the community, and those who are greedy that try to keep the money-saving (or potentially money-making) information to themselves.

I will be putting some ROMs/firmware on my site to help others with flashing video cards for Macs.
I have flashed a few PC video cards for use in Apple Macintosh systems.
Success:
XFX 'WANG' GeForce 6200, 256 Megs RAM, $49 from Newegg.
- Requires 10.4.3 or higher. You will get a Kernel Panic if used in an older version.
- Uses a Temp Sensor that can cause long boot times under Mac OS X 10.5.x if you use it on a G4.
- There is a special firmware that disables the temp sensor.
- Supports Quartz Extreme and Core Image

VisionTek 5564 GeForce 2 MX 400 64MB SDRAM AGP DualHead/TwinView, $5-$20 from eBay.
- Works great in Mac OS 9 and all Mac OS X versions.
- Supports Quartz Extreme

This worked in my G4 Mac with the original PC/Windows firmware, however:
- The mouse cursor was a solid 'box' when using Thousands/Millions of colors (it looked fine in 256-color mode).
- The system couldn't detect my monitor or its timings, so resolutions and refresh rates were a bit off.
- Things worked perfectly after flashing with the '1075 TwinView' ROM.

* Double update. It turns out the wrong timings were in the firmware. Default MX400 timings are 200/183, default MX200 timings are 175/166. The VisionTek card uses 200/166 timings. I modified the firmware and re-flashed, and everything is good now. :)
Elsa GeForce 2 MX 400, 32 Megs, $5-$20 from eBay
- So far has worked great.
- No issues in any games.
- No artifact/memory issues.
- Flashed the NV1100 firmware, 200/183mhz timings.

Fail:
Inno3D GeForce 2 MX 200, 32 Megs, 64-bit SDR, AGP - 'Tornado GeForce 2 MX-200', purchased for $45 brand new back in 2001.
* NVFlash said the EEPROM wasn't flashable.
* NVFlash said the EEPROM wasn't flashable.
* Some random GeForce 2 MX 400, 64 Megs, PCI - Unknown brand, NVFlash can't identify the EEPROM.
The EEPROM wasn't the 'non flashable' kind on the Inno3D GF2MX200, it just wasn't listed as a supported EEPROM by the version of NVFlash I was using.
Recently, I haven't been able to get the card at work at all (PC or Mac). I think I killed it with static or something. :(
