Ok... I've come across a 32 meg AGP TNT2...
I wanna use it in the G4, in place of the stock Rage.
Are there drivers available anywhere for it?? Something to flash its ROM?
IF I get it working, will I be able to use it for DVD? It does have built in DVD decoding...
TIA

macintosh hardware addresses graphics cards differently than peecee cards. this is why manufacturers are late in getting hardware out for the mac. it's not just a driver issue "why don't they just fix it in software" it actually is a hardware issue too. i'm just waiting for the pci radeon...

Isn't the GeForce2 MX and GeForce2Go chipsets supposed to be Mac compatible? I wonder if there are any working prototypes.
