Can I use a NVIDIA card only for Boot Camp in MacPro5,1

I bought an ACER HN274H 3D monitor and then found out that 3D (primarily for gaming) won't work with the ATI Radeon HD 5870 card that I have in the PCI Express 2.0 x16 slot. I assume the easiest fix would be to put a NVIDIA card in one of the remaining PCI Express 2.0 x4 slots. A post from 2008 said that 2 cards should work if only one is plugged into the monitor at a time - one for MacOSX and the other for Boot Camp. I wanted to confirm if that still is the case for Boot Camp where I'm running Windows 7. What would be a reasonable NVIDIA card that would not exceed power of 300W combined maximum for all PCI Express slots (no other PCI cards currently); primarily for gaming with 3D option.
This would be for a Mac Pro bought in Nov 2010. Other relevant info:
Processor Name:          Quad-Core Intel Xeon
Processor Speed:          3.2 GHz
Number Of Processors:          1
Total Number Of Cores:          4
BTW, HN274H works ok in 2D for both OS's.
thanks!

300W is without using two 6-pin aux power video card cables, 75W per slot.
So as long as the 5870 is present you need to look into a 450W PSU to rig together to add 6/8-pin aux power to an additional card.
My understanding though is that a PC card under OS X needs support, the fan can run constantly.... not my forte as to how and what to expect.
OSX and Graphics Cards
GTX 460 and above would fill your needs.

Can i use 32 bit windows 7 for boot camp?

I recently purchased a 15 inch mbp retina display and wanted to use boot camp to install windows 7 on it. I accidentally purchased 32 bit instead of 64 bit. will this still work?

the apple drivers only comes in 64bit so it would be like running windows in safe mode in terms of drivers

Can I use second internal hard drive for boot camp? OptiBay question.

I have a MBP. I have replaced the original HDD with a 160 Gb unit. I have replaced the optical drive with a 500 Gb unit via OptiBay. Right now, the 500 Gb drive is my startup volume, and has OS 10.5.6 living on it.
What I want to do is use 32 Gb of the original drive for a Windows (either XP or 7) volume and the rest of it as HFS+ for storage of stuff (videos, photos, and stuff like that)
I have rEFIt installed on the startup volume. I have played with triple boot setups, etc., in the past.
So how do I install Windows? I will have to use an external DVD drive, of course, and I have a 32 Gb partition that is FAT32 now. Can I insert the Win DVD and let it try to find the right partition? How about drivers? This does get a little bit more interesting.
I am not going to use Windows for production, etc., but would like to be able to play with it.
Sorry if I am bring up a previously answered question, but the OptiBay deal didn't show up in my searches.
Thanks
Roger

Yes, lots of Mac Pro users do that.
It's still a good idea to make secondary backups, especially to a portable external HD, that you can take off-site, so you're protected against fire, flood, theft, direct lightning strike on your power lines, etc.

Can i use the debit card details for payment in the itunes store

can i use the debit card details for payment in the itunes store

Debit cards are no longer accepted in the iTunes Store, it seems. The current valid payment methods are listed here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5552
You can try contacting the iTunes Store and asking if there is any way to use your card, but they probably will tell you that it's not possible.
http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
Using a debit card in any online service where it stores your card is a bad idea in any case since if someone gains access to your account in the service, they can quickly drain your bank account. Credit cards limit your liability, as do prepaid iTunes cards.

Can you use Windows 7 to partition a Boot Camp created drive (not just a PC partition on a Mac drive) into multiple PC partitions?

Can you use Windows 7 to partition a Boot Camp created dedicated PC drive (not just a PC partition on a Mac drive) into multiple PC partitions?

Why? I can't use my Visa card? For assistance, contact iTunes Support at~~~

Hi
I just want to ask why? my Visa Card can't use ??? FB to my Emil please.......
<Edited by Host>

You should do as they ask; contact iTunes support. Some visa cards are not acceptable if they are debit cards, for instance. But iTunes support will tell you exactly why.
Incidentally, I have asked the hosts to remove your email address; it's not good policy to publish it, it could encourage spam at best and scams at worst.

Is there any network out there that you can buy a data sim card only for a tablet that you can payg and not a mothly contract

I use my iPad at home with wifi for about 98%of the time the other 2% I need to use 3G sim which is not a problem the problem is I cannot find any network that I can buy a payg SIM card unless I renew every 30 days that's £120 a year to use my iPad the amount of times I use it without wifi is so small 2 gb would last me a full year as anybody got any suggestions?

A G5 can run the OS it shipped with up to Leopard if your CPU is big enough (should be being a G5).
For now, You could try this;
Mac OS X: Starting up in Safe Mode
What is Safe BootSafe Mode takes awhile to start, so patience is a virtue here! It may get you going.
Also, it would help to know what your G5 is doing exactly .

Can I use MacBook Pro install disc for boot disk on Macbook 4,1?

Hi,
I have a White MacBook 4,1 running OSX 10.5.8. I'm trying to clone my HD and ran into a filesystem error. Ran Disc Utility and had same errors. Now I need to run Disc Utility from Bootdisc but I can't find it. I do however have my newer DVD from my 13" MBP with 10.6.7. Can I use this to boot from and run disc utility to fix error?
If not, any suggestions?
Thanks
Frank

It might work but it's risky. The MBP installation disks may well not contain the right drivers for the MacBook. It would be better, if at all possible, if you contacted Apple tech support and asked for a new set of disks for your MacBook. They'll send you a set for a reasonable fee. If you can't wait, perhaps there's an Apple Store or other Apple dealer near you that would have a set you could borrow in-store to do the reinstallation.

Anybody using Apple RAID card in a Boot Camp system?

I can guess windows would not see/be able to use any disks/volumes controlled by the array, but I wondered if somebody had a system with :
1 - Mac Pro w/ 4 HDDs
2 - 1st drive with SL and Boot Camp 64 bit Windows (Vista or 7)
3 - Apple Mac Pro RAID card
4 - other 3 HDDs in a RAID 5 or 0
Is this possible? Is this just crazy (I do need Windows for some stuff).
If any experience can you also tell me what happens to the array when you went from 10.5 to 10.6 or Vista to Win 7?

Hi CC,
Even though it's not the answer I wanted thanks for finalizing it for me. I think I'll give SoftRAID my 1st shot because they say it will let me do separate dual-boot disk.
Contrary to public opinion, not everything is possible with computers. They to have their limits.
One thing I hate about Apple's website is when I do not feel I got the definitive answer with a responder's first answer and then their next shot solves it for me, but I cannot seem to give them a solved credit.
You should have the possibilities to 'mark as helpful' and 'mark as solved' and also to mark the whole thread as 'solved'.
See the section *What are question answers?* in the TOU http://discussions.apple.com/help.jspa
But that is not mandatory
Thanks again Stefan
You're welcome anytime.
Glad to be of 'no-help'...

Can I use VMware as a solution to Boot Camp not working?

OK so here's the deal:
I've been trying to install WIndows XP SP2 via Boot Camp so that I can use my 80 GB zune with my new black macbook. Unfortunatley I've been running into problems. I didn't format my windows during set up and now when I try to run windows during boot camp a black screen with a white cursor in the left corner of the screen appears. I'm willing to buy VMware Fusion. Will VMware work if I'm having trouble with Boot Camp?

The simple answer is this. When you partition using the Boot Camp Assistant, it doesn't format anything, so it's all using the Mac Journaling File System. In order for Windows to work, it has to be on a FAT32 or NTFS file system, Windows itself can't read the Macs file system. And that friend... is why you had problems

Hi, where can I manually download windows support software for boot camp windows 7 installation, I am trying through boot camp but its like taking forever to download its been 5 hours but boot camp still have't completed the download

can any one give me a link to download them manually

create a Windows support software (drivers) CD or USB storage media

Advanced Network: Proxy Settings, I uncheck "Auto Proxy detection" and make sure you have the interface you use selected and none others.
"Go into System Preferences - Network - Advanced - Proxies Uncheck "Auto Proxy Discovery", click OK, Apply"
After Unchecking "Auto Proxy Discovery" I also had to Uncheck "Use Passive FTP Mode (PASV)" and then Restart Boot Camp Assistant.
odiggy's comment and tried restarting Boot Camp Assistant. That did the trick, even though the Auto Proxy Discovery checkbox ended up the same as it started. Windows support software is now downloading... if you're downloading to an external drive make sure there's a least 1 GB of free space because the WindowsSupport folder is around 700 MB and presumably will grow with time.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3223773?start=15
Also, Change Domain Name Servers to OpenDNS IP address servers - that should be at the router firewall rather than the OS but may be in both for some people. You may be using the defaults your ISP uses, save those if you want, and try these:
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
Make sure you are not using LittleSnitch or Symantec (probably other 3rd party firewall)

How can you use Win 7 upgrade disk if Boot Camp 4 doesn't support XP or Vista?

I've just purchased a Windows 7 Ultimate upgrade disk to upgrade my Win XP Pro. I haven't installed Lion or Boot Camp 4 yet but am concerned that if I need to reinstall Win 7 in the future the upgrade disk will require that Win XP Pro be installed first.
If my Win XP Pro isn't supported and can't be reinstalled in Lion/Boot Camp 4, does anyone know what my options would be?
Can't get to Microsoft tech support without having a post-install product ID and their forums don't seem to cover this specific question for Mac/Boot Camp users or VMWare/Parallels users. I'm hoping that once activated that might be enough to turn the upgrade disk to a full version for reinstalling, but I'm not betting on it.
Any help appreciated before I permanently remove my XP Boot Camp partition for a clean install of Win 7 Ultimate.
Thanks

Can't use ssh publickey, but only for a single host

I've been using publickeys for a long time to connect my laptop to my server, but lately I can't connect when I'm in this place only.
It is the same key and it works perfectly, except when I'm in this specific network. And it doesn't seem to be a firewall issue, because the remote server actually logs the attempt.
I'm all out of ideas. Nothing I try has any effect.

If I try to use the same key to log in to other servers (one debian and an openWRT router) it works just fine from this location. This key also works to log in to the archlinux server if I'm on other networks, such as my college's or my other workplace.
Any help is very appreciated. As it stands, I have to log in to my debian server and from there I have to log in to my archlinux server. I wish I could just log in directly as I've done many times in the past.

Hi,
I don't know whether you've solved the issue in the meantime (your issue was three months ago), but I thought I'd post this reply just to let other people who run into this problem know what happened to me and how I solved it.
I had exactly the same problem as you had. The logging in stopped at exactly the same point in the debugging trace. I too was experiencing the problem from a single network (multiple hosts on the network could not log onto a remote server). Logging into the remote server from other locations (even with the same laptop) worked fine.
The problem turned out to be an MTU problem in my case. I was running an OpenVPN connection to the remote server, and I was logging into it over the VPN. No problems, usually, except for the fact that the network that I was logging in from is a glass fiber network using PPPoE. The MTU on that link is 1460 bytes, not the 1500 bytes that is more common. I had to reconfigure the OpenVPN interfaces (using the OpenVPN configuration options "mssfix 1360", "fragment 1360" and "tun-mtu 1400" on both sides of the connection) to use a smaller MTU on the OpenVPN tunX interface, and everything started working normally again.
Obviously, the MTU was wrong for every connection going over the VPN, but the OpenVPN tunnel was somewhat resistant to this mistake because I turned on LZO compression, which made most packets that were transmitted over the OpenVPN interface (tunX) that were using an MTU of 1500 bytes smaller than the maximum allowed on the actual link. Anyway, the lesson is: set up your MTUs on your links correctly. And turn on "mssfix" so that if you're routing remote hosts' traffic over the OpenVPN tunnel, their TCP stacks will be made aware of the actual MTU of the link.
Hope this helps somebody,
Sven

I can't use my debit Card with my Apple ID.

Help Me Please. i can't use my debit card pay for iTunes store
"This credit card cannot be used with iTunes Store. Please use another credit card."

The debit card must be the type of debit card that can also be used as a credit card and contains one of the logos listed in that article (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, etc.). Otherwise, that would be correct.
Having familiarity with the message the OP is receiving, he/she can contact the iTunes Store directly to inquire about why the message is being received, and they may be able to provide some clarification on what is going on. In the meantime, a different card that has one of those logos that is applicable for their country of residence will have to be used.
If the message says something alone the lines of "your credit card was declined," it would be an issue that would have to be resolved by the financial institution instead.
