ATI 100435854 Radeon X1900 from mac to pc + molex connector also

I just got a ATI 100435854 Radeon X1900 from a friend of mines. It came form a G5 Mac. I know I need to get a 6 pin PCI power connector or else make one. I also need to know however, what else do I need to get this working on my PC? I have read that one would need to flash the video card and such. WIll this need to be done before anything will even pop up on the monitor? So far, I can't get anything to display. I can't flash it if I can't see anything on the monitor. Help please, it's a nice video card and I don't want it to go to waste. Thanks.

Hi.

As far as I know you don´t have to Flash the VideoBios. It should really rich to install the X1900Xt into the PC, install the 6Pin PCIe Power Connector and Start the PC. The Video Bios are not changed for mac computers....
What do you else need is an current driver for the graphic-card ;)

If you realy need to flash the Bios, try it with winflash (Version 2.0.0.2 is good ;) )

PS: Sorry for broken english :rolleyes:

welcome on ATi-Forum.de.

As far as I know you don´t need to flash your graphic card. Buy something like this:

maybe it's not Powerfull enough...I mean, normally you have 2 5 1/4-Inch-Powerconnectors for one PCIe Connector

Nice Idea. But i think this couldn´t works too. Should the power supply has so less power for those components, it is a sign of low quality. And low Quality PSU´s has often no separate 12V lines. But he can try it.
