I would like to have a second monitor and a S-Video connection on my mac and was hoping I could use a spare Gefore4M PCI card to do this, but I can't get my mac to recognise the type of card present. Do I need to flash the rom? If so where can I get one?

You can't get one b/c there are no GeForce4 MX PCI cards for Apple computers, so you might as well forget it. It's not possible.

You can't use the AGP ROM?
