Hello
Ive just bought a Nvidia Quadro fx4500. It was on eBay and the seller Said it was from a .Mac pro. My Powermac g5 Quad do Not detect it.but when im putting my geforce 6600 in it and in slot one my quadro fx4500 it says it is a vga controller. Ive read that there are 3 Versions of the Quadro fx4500 . One ppc one pc and one for the Mac Pro. So i wanted to Flash my macpro Card to the Powermac card. Problem is that my goofy Windows Computer is not booting up to the bios since the card is on the pcie slot. And when its booting up i cant Get in the bios. Its just this underline thing (_) shining all the Time. After a Minute it says press Any Key to reboot. I press a key and nothing Happend it just repeat. The The usb-drive is working. Ive tried some Otter motherboards but it wont work. Anyone an idea how i can flash with my Windows pc the macpro card to an Powermac card?
