Is there a reason that the hardware test that came with my G5 will not test the video card? I have tried both regular and extended, and it never runs the video card test. I have an ATI X800XT.
15 inch MacBook Pro 2.16 GHz, 2 GB RAM, 7200 RPM 100GB HDD.
Dual 2.5 GHz Power Mac G5, 1 GB RAM, 250 GB HDD, ATI Radeon X800XT.
I'm just guessing. It could be possible that the AHT hasn't been updated to recognize the card and handle it. may be a sorta safe mode that if it doesn't recognize the card it doesn't perform the test.
