Aperture install with low spec video card?

Is there a way to avoid the installer routine (when installing Aperture) that identifies your graphics card? Apterture has identified that my Geforce 5600 card (in my 2005 G5iMac IBM chip 1.8Ghtz) is not able to cope with running Aperture, and quits the install process.
Having heard stories of people running Aperture on Powerbooks, I'm sure I could cope Apterure running slower (or whatever!) without a new graphics card!
Any suggestions please? Many thanks
iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Before going on a long trip, I tried to install it on my 1.42 mini - found a hack that allowed it to be installed, but ... then the program wouldn't run - saying that the hardware was insufficient. Having used it for a couple weeks on this MacBookPro I was "forced" to buy to run it while on vacation - it seems that some parts of Aperture run much faster on the laptop over my G5 2GHz dualcore (corrections and cropping, etc.), and other parts are slower (to a snails pace) - like creating thumbnails - next to worthless. When I get home, I might seriously consider getting a better graphics card in the tower - as cropping is a drag with the standard card I have in it.

Hi:
You go into the BIOS, select the Advanced Options menu.
Go to the device configuration menu and there will be an onboard audio setting.
It will be set to Disabled. Change the setting to Enabled. Save the setting there by hitting the F10 key, and again when you exit the BIOS.
After you reboot, you will have the onboard audio back.

Your video card driver may be fine for something, but just not compatible with Premiere Elements 13/13.1.
For those with the display card error, the answers include
a. assure your video card/graphics card driver version is up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of the card -
if necessary consider a driver roll back.
b. determine in Device Manager/Display Adapters if the computer is using 2 cards instead of 1
c. delete the BadDrivers.txt file
the rationale for that deletion is found in post 10 of the following older post...principle applies to 13 as well as 9.
Re: Premiere Elements 9 Tryout Serious Display Problem
Have you looked for computer ATI card settings that might be more compatible with Premiere Elements 13/13.1?
When is the program crashing - just opening a new project or rather crashing if editing a particular video format at the Timeline level?

Trying to install Bootcamp 4 with non Apple video Card

Hi folks
So I had to buy a new video card (ATI HD 5850 1 GB DDR5) but of course, I lost acces to the boot screen, so I'm wondering how to install Bootcamp, since I don't have acces to the boot screen. In some point of the Bootcamp installation, the Mac re-boots but it freezes or something like that, so I have to turn it off.
For the other hand, I have the original nVidia 8800 GT which came with the Mac Pro, but's fried and it only works on safe mode. So I'm wondering if it's possible to install Bootcamp by using the 8800 GT in safe mode.
After failing on the Bootcamp installation, I have seen that the OSX already created a Bootcamp partition but in FAT 32 and we know it's neede din NTFS or such. So I was wondering if there is a way to sort this out somehow.
I also have another Bootcamp with Win7 in other hard disk, but quite small, so now I have an empty disk of 300GB, I would like to put all the windows stuff there.
So:
1. It seems I cannot use the new video card because of the boot.
2. It seems I cannot use the old video card because it's fried.
3. The Bootcamp partition is already there but in FAT 32.
Any ideas?
Meanwhile, I'm going to try some kind of "ideas".
Thanks in advance!

Then I google it and I found my thread... Mmmhhh... :/ Anyway, somehow, when Mac boots in order to perform the Win7 installation, after the Apple' chime, a BIG and BLACK pixellated apple apears on a super white background. While it stays, the disk is scratching the surface, then appears an icon of a Folder with an ? on it, The again, the big apple and the scratch, then a Ø symbol ^^ and again, the  with the scratching sound and loops all the time there... I think it's because the non apple video card. But how can be possible... Installation is just, you know, a pair of graphics going there, not OpenGL stuff! xD

Photoshop CS4 Issue with NVIDIA 8800 Video Card?

I have an Mac Pro Intel 2 x 2.8 GHz Quad-Core Xeon with 6GB RAM running OS X 10.5.5 and an NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT driving two monitors.
I just installed Adobe Photoshop CS4 fresh from a factory CD.
When I perform a Distort -> Lens Correction or do a Free Transform to rotate an image an arbitrary amount, and then follow that with a resize (tried 133% and 166%), the image ends up with a pattern of gray plaid overlaid -- especially visible in the darkest shadows. The pattern appears only on the rotated layers of an image.
This pattern persists if I quit and restart Photoshop, BUT -- there's no pattern visible if I open the same image in Photoshop CS3. It only appears in CS4.
This is easy to reproduce -- I just tried it with an image I created in Photoshop at 5x7" at 240dpi and filled with solid black.
I dropped a Bug Report to Adobe, and they wrote back suggesting "This is most likely an issue with your video card driver."
Anybody else out there having this issue? Anyone with an identical setup want to test this?

3D Rendering with an old video card

I am using an old video card (A Nvidia Geforce FX 5200 Ultra) and I get the wonderful message stating that my card does not support hardware acceleration. I came across an older post: http://forums.adobe.com/message/2462645 and it mentioned the GPU Registry hack. I downloaded it and going to try it but a few questions first.
I am running CS 5.1 will that work for CS5 even though it says it is for CS 4.
Once I download and unzip it how do I install it? Double click and let it make the changes or what steps should I take?
(The technical documentaion for the plugins links or a missing page.)
Thanks for any and all help!

How much ram does your card have?
If it has less than 256 then it probably won't run open gl even with that
Use GPU registry key which is really only for testing or diagnostics and not meant
for a pernament fix.
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/404/kb404898.html
If your card has at least 256 ram then really the only thing to try is updating the card driver
(download from nvida, not thru windows updates).

Broken & Frozen Images with Radeon 7000 Video Card

I recently purchased a used ATI Radeon 7000 64 MB AGP video card in order to upgrade my Power Mac G4 Sawtooth. This is the Mac Edition card, not a reflashed PC card. I followed the seller's instructions to download and install the drivers and the ATI display panel. I shut down the computer, removed its Rage 128 Pro card and installed the Radeon 7000.
I turned the computer back on, it booted up okay and displayed the desktop and apps just fine. The problem came when I tried to play video -- I inserted a DVD as a test. The OS opened DVD Player and started the movie, but the screen broke up into patches of pixels and froze up. I couldn't escape or force quit; I had to turn the computer off.
This also happens when I bring the computer up from sleep mode. The screen breaks up into the colorful pixel patches and freezes up.
Additional info: computer running OS X 10.4.11. Sonnet 1 gHz processor, upgraded 1.25 gb memory. Computer monitor is an acrylic 23" Cinema Display, attached to the DVI port on the Radeon 7000 using Apple's ADC to DVI adapter.
Anyone have any advice on how to fix this?

Hello,
according to his other posts, he removed the card from another V240. Therefore this might be a Sun XVR-100.
The minimum OS is Solaris 8 plus the XVR-100 Installation CD.
The Installation Guide and - CD is included with every card. Either locate these items or login to SunSolve (or use docs.sun.com as suggested by rukbat) and download the Installation Guide.
You won't get any output on the monitor during power-on without a attached keyboard. The card requires the installed drivers to work in a graphical session.
Just to say it didn't work is way too less information. Please take the time to describe a problem more detailed in future posts.

Ideas and Suggestions for Working with Low Res Video Files

Hi,
A client has asked me to take all of her low res videos she shot with her iPhone and put them on a DVD.
I've made her aware that the end result is not going to be a Hollywood production. I even did a test for her to show the difference between a low res clip and a HD clip. You can see these clips here:
http://designerandpublisher.com/hs/lowrestest.mp4
and
http://designerandpublisher.com/hs/hdtest.mp4
She understands and will fix her camera to shoot high-res next time. Anyway, the footage (330 minutes) I have looks like this when imported into Premiere Pro CS4:
I first just set up a 640x480 timeline and imported one of her clips. It doesn't look too bad. I'm not sure why that green bar is there:
Then I went into the timeline's properties to see if I can somehow enhance it once it goes onto a DVD via Encore:
But i'm not really sure if it's worth fiddling around with a customized timeline. I don't have my hopes up though but I'd appreciate it if anyone could tell me what they did in this type of situation. It seems like the 640x480 timeline, once brought into Encore and transcoded for the DVD, may work best.
Any ideas are appreciated. Thanks.

Color with NO recommended video card?

The recommended video card is no longer an option. The minimum card would be the nvidia 8800. This card doesn't support rendering in 10 12 or 16bit only 8 and 32 as far as I know. Does anyone know this to be different? Yes it does matter. render times and such with no render farm blow in 32bit and 8 bit is just not enough color depth to prevent banding.

I have an iMac 20" dual 2.4Ghz with ATI Radeon HD 2600 (if it's what you're talking about) and Color works flawlessly(much faster than the original 25fps) with all the bit depths supported(8, 12, 16, float).
This does not tell anything when you are not telling what kind of footage (resolution, fps) you are using.
Color's limiting factor is GPU's power to handle pixels per second (resolution x fps), when you are not choking hdd pipes.

Issue with users accessing video card and /dev/nvram

Hello,
I have Lenovo x60s and i can't access with normal user (group users) the file
/dev/nvram
ever I restart de computer have execute "chmod 777 /dev/nvram" for fallowing access for users
and with users i can't use video i810 alone use vesa
with root i can use driver i810 on xorg, why??
I don't understand?!?!?!

The problem with my video is with root i can play games 3D, with users i can't, my config video card on xorg:
Section "Device"
### Available Driver options are:-
### Values: <i>: integer, <f>: float, <bool>: "True"/"False",
### <string>: "String", <freq>: "<f> Hz/kHz/MHz"
### [arg]: arg optional
#Option "ShadowFB" # [<bool>]
#Option "DefaultRefresh" # [<bool>]
#Option "ModeSetClearScreen" # [<bool>]
Identifier "Card0"
Driver "vesa" ---->> Now I write "VESA", while I write i810 i can't execute "startx" with normal user
VendorName "Intel Corporation"
BoardName "Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller"
BusID "PCI:0:2:0"
EndSection
the /dev/nvram is device when i use especial keys of keyboard on my notebook,
ever restart my pc the permissions change, I have execute "chmod 777 /dev/nvram" else i can't use with normal user.
i think the udev always create this device on start and always create with the permission alone read and write for root, but I just find that the group is kmen and I add my user in the group.
I restart system and verify the result.

ITunes error with a new video card

I just installed a new video card. Geforce 9800gt.
Now when I start iTunes, the grid that lists the songs is shades of pink rather than gray. And the playlists appear blurry.
I have the latest drivers.
Has anyone else encountered this? Any suggestions?

Thanks!
That was exactly the issue.
I never thought about looking there. No telling how long I would have overlooked it.

Having problems with RT and video card?

I have just upgraded to FCP 5 Studio. I found that my video card was not able to handle the RT Extreme, so I upgraded to a recommended ATI 9600 64 mb video card. However I still do not get any video that plays in the viewer windows. I only get a pixelated screen of the menu bar. I am running two monitors. The second monitor is only 32 mb,but I only use it for the menus part of the program. Do both video cards need to have enough memory to run the video RT? If so, can I unplug the monitor that does not have enough memory and run the program properly? Can I turn off the RT feature? Thanks for your help.

This is the Final Cut Express forum. You should post your question in the Final Cut Pro forum and/or the PowerMac forum.
wrt RT settings in FCE, you can adjust them in FCE System Settings > Playback Control

Could i install a hdmi or video card on a hp 600 all in one mine did not come with one ?

My hp touchsmart 600 all in one did not come with a hdmi or rca port only coax port.
Could i install one or how could i play my xbox on it? it has a delay that dont let you play the game. help

Hello @kingdavid1977,
I understand that you are looking for a graphics card for your computer. Although I cannot recommend a specific card for you I can tell you this. According to the HP TouchSmart 600-1350 Desktop PC Product Specifications you have an open Mobile PCI Express Module (MXM 3.0) socket available on your computer and as long as you install a card that meets that slot you should be able to get your game console to connect.
I hope this helps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!
