New GFX card, Quartz Extreme error, and suddenly FCP 6 will not run. Help me fix this problem please!

Model Name: Mac Pro Model Identifier: MacPro1,1 Processor Name: Dual-Core Intel Xeon Processor Speed: 3 GHz Number Of Processors: 2 Total Number Of Cores: 4 L2 Cache (per processor): 4 MB Memory: 7 GB Bus Speed: 1.33 GHz
My old GFX card nVidia GeForce 7300GT which is busted.
I replaced it with a nVidia NVIDIA Quadro FX 4500 from a Mac Pro of the same generation.
I'm now getting a Quartz Extreme error whenever I try to run Final Cut Pro 6 or Compressor. "This system does not meet the following minimum requirements: Final Cut Pro 6 requires that your system have a Quartz Extreme capable video card."
Well, I checked the specs of the card and it does support Quartz Extreme. So why isn't FCP 6 running?
Looking under the System Profiler > Graphics/Displays, it doesn't say the Cinema HD Display supports Quartz Extreme, but how could that be, because the Quadro 4500's specs online says it does?!! This was the better GFX card made for the same generation of Mac Pro but somehow doesn't work!
This is also effecting my DVD player App with an error: "A valid video device could not be found for playback: -70017". Which has never happened before either.
I've researched online and can't find anything that works.
The card has power running to it and the monitor is hooked into the closest DVI port to the logic board which most of people with the same problem have done to fix this. I've also gone into the Disk Utility and ran both Verify and Repair permissions and the same for the boot disk.
Nothing. I'm stumped. Short of trying to flash the ROM on the GFX card I'm not sure what to do. And I'm not comfortable doing that. Help please?
I'm using Final Cut Pro 6 and subsequent older versions of Motion and Compressor, not FCP X or companion series.
HELP!!!!

GFX card HELP!!!

I'm using OSX 10.4.6 on a G4 Dual 500mhz agp machine.
Was given a Radeon9800pro card but the machine doesn't like it.
I've got FCP Pro 5 - but obviously it doesn't like the piddly ATI card that is in the machine.
Does anyone know which, if any of the compatible cards will work in my machine? The list of gfx cards compatible with fcp pro 5 is here: http://www.apple.com/uk/finalcutstudio/specs.html?finalcutpro
or if there is a card not listed that will work?

Motion requires the standard graphics card found in any Mac Pro, MacBook Pro, iMac Intel Core Duo, Power Mac G5, iMac G5, a 1.25GHz or faster PowerBook G4, or a 1.25GHz or faster flat-panel iMac
Minimum supported graphics cards: ATI Radeon 9800XT, ATI Radeon 9700 Pro, ATI Radeon 9600XT or 9600 Pro, ATI Mobility Radeon 9700, ATI Mobility Radeon 9600, NVIDIA GeForce 6600 and 6600LE, NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT, NVIDIA GeForce Go5200 or FX 5200 Ultra
Recommended graphics cards: ATI Radeon X1900 XT, ATI Radeon X850 XT, ATI Radeon X800 XT, ATI Radeon X1600, NVIDIA GeForce Quadro FX 4500, NVIDIA GeForce 7800 GT, NVIDIA GeForce 6800 Ultra DDL or 6800 GT DDL
I use a nvidia 5500 that will run all the 10.4.8 video treats. It came out of my PC, I bought it to vo all the tricks with Visra. I had a guy at www.strangedogs.com flash it for the MAC total cost of $50., card 25, flash 25. This would work with your Mac, it is a minimum approach, but works great, it does the Quartz extreme thing with revolving 3D windows in Tiger, etc.
I suggest you go to the strange dogs forum, they seem to really know the Mac and the Video cards. With what you want to do, I suggest you go high end, Radeon 800, 850. In the long run you will be better off.
If you are a gamer then you will always be chasing a faster card.

Disabling GFX card driver

Hello,
I am having some issues working with Apple Color.
The issues are generally caused by Color not liking 2 GFX cards in my system.
I have a GT120 used as a main card and also a Quadro 4000 that is needed as a GPU for grading software.
To make a long story short:
After installing 10.6.7 Combo from apple website Apple Color works fine, but I can't get DaVinci Resolve to work as there are no up-to date Quadro 4000 drivers.
When I install proper Quadro 4000 drivers, I can run Resolve, but this ***** up the Color installation.
I have isolated files that are responsible.
These are files in System/Extensions folder starting from NV… and GeForce…
Now questions:
*Question 1*
Is there anything like creating sort of configuration that would somehow switch between 2 sets of files so that I can restart the computer in some way and use one set of files and then easily switch between the second set? The best way would be to do it w/out the restart.
*Question 2*
Is there any way of installing extensions manually in other way than running an installer?
Basically I would love to check file by file if I can create a mix of versions of these driver files so that I could check if there's any magic combination where both programs run?
*Question 3*
Is there any way of disabling some hardware or exclude it from a running system?
In fact Apple Color does not even make use of Quadro 4000, but this card, as a 2nd spoils it causing external video signal loss (on a separate video card). That's why somehow hiding or removing Quadro 4000 prior to starting Color should help.
Thanks for your help.

Yes, this update makes Quadro work fine and I can run a Resolve which makes use of it, but as I said - it spoils my color installation and Color won't work.
What do you mean by a dual boot system?
Separate drives? Or multiple systems on a drive?
Any guidelines? I am not a Mac Geek.

X-Fi + 2 GFX-Cards = high CPU-Load, slow Mouse, hanging system

>X-Fi + 2 GFX-Cards = high CPU-Load, slow Mouse, hanging systemA Hey guys,
I'm running 2 GF 8800 GTs (PCIe .) cards on a MSI Eclipse SLI board. My Audigy2 ZS PCI runned fine in this system.
I just replaced the Audigy by a PCIe X-Fi (EMU20K2 audio processor - not the xtreme audio from MSI).
Now I'm dealing with the following issue:
- System startup is slow
- in Windows, Mouse is slow, stuttering
- high CPU-Load
- very slow system response
!!! Attention !!! I had this problems allready at the st boot with the X-Fi, when the driver from creative wasn't installed (the card was recognized as "HD Audio" bei Windows 7). Installing the drivers didn't help.
If I install only one graphics card, the system runns fine and I can use the X-Fi and it's Software without problems.
If I replace the X-Fi by the PCIe Xtreme Audio from MSI, System runns fine.
If I use Win XP with the two GFX cards and the X-Fi, System runns fine.
Can you help me?

Hi there,
got the same problem if i use my two Nvidia GTX260.
My system:
Asus P6T
I7 920 @ 3,8GHz
2GB ram
Gigabyte GTX260 OC Edition
Nvidia GTX260
X-Fi XtremeGamer
-System (Win7x64) takes ~0min to start.
-Stuttering mouse, keyboard everything >.<
Deactivating the onboard sound doesnt help.
Newest Nvidia and Creative driver too =(
The system runs fine without the X-FI and two GTX260 no errors ect...
One GTX260 runs also fine with the X-FI
But two graphic cards and the X-FI..... **bleep** =/
I use debian as my main OS and it run still fine with both graphic cards and the x-fi...
so i think its just a driver problem.
Hope it will be fixed soon =/
If someone have any sugestions...please help us.
Greetings from Germany also =D

How do you hook up a TV monitor to a second GFX card?

hi - after i learned that the Nv7800GT GFX card I ordered with my G5 dual core doesn't output to S-Video, i ordered and installed a 6600 card (which allegedly does). However now that it is installed, i can't seem to get it to recognize the TV monitor i've hooked up using the apple DVI to S-Video adapter. the system profiler just tells me "no display connected" on both of its ports.
Can someone please help me to set this up correctly? I want to use the 6600 to drive an external monitor or beamer.
thx for any help in advance!

Did you hit "Detect Displays" ?
yes. i notice that in the sys prefs only my cinema display (the one connected to the 7800GT) is shown. in my experience of using "extended desktop" mode, i would see a second display listed, along with several resolution options.
but in this case, i am not using a single gfx card with a second monitor hooked up. so why do i not "see" the second card in the control panel? (it shows up in the system profiler)

Help With Third Party Wireless Cards

Hello, I am needing some help with third party wireless cards. I have purchased and installed the Linksys WMP54G wireless PCI card into my G4. From what ive seen on the discussions page here, this card is known to work with the G4s in place of the more expensive Airport Extreme card. The only problem is that my G4 doesnt even recognize that the card is in the PCI slot. Ive tryed the other PCI slots and still nothing. Previously, i have tried using a belkin and a d-link card that have been known to work in the G4s as well, and had the same problem. I am 100% sure that the card is seated correctly, and cant think of any other reason why it shouldnt detect that something is in the slot. If anyone can inform me what im doing wrong, or has any info on how to get it working, that would be great. Thanks for your time,

Powermac G4 Mac OS X (10.3.8) 2 gb ram, 200 gb hd, dual display

Yes, i run Digidesigns audio editing program called Protools on my Mac. It uses a PCI card to import mic/line audio signals into the program from the hardware interface. I tried moving the Digidesign card and putting the wireless card in the same slot, and still nothing, although the Digidesign card works fine in the other slots. Each time i moved the Digidesign card, it showed up in the different slots, although the ones that were open did not show up at all. Only the PCI slots that are in use show up in ASP on my machine. I have the FW-800 version of the G4, so im not sure if that makes any difference. I have never erased the PRAM before, would you be able to give me directions on how to do that? Thanks a ton for your help. =)

I need a new gfx card

Hi
I have an ati 5870 card and i use 3 screens with DVI ports incl 1 display port adapter for the third screen.
And now i want a new gfx card but i dont know what to chose because i need to connect my 3 screens with DVI
The card i am looking for must have the following port.
2 DVI
1 HDMI
1 display port
But all the new cards seems to have 1 or 2 dvi and 4 mini display ports.
I have looked on this card MSI R7970 Lightning
http://www.msi.com/product/vga/R7970-Lightning.html
Can i use these mini display ports and some kind of adapter that makes a HDMI and Displayport ?
Or can i get some adapter that makes my DVI screen ports to mini display port ?
Can i plug in 4 monitors on same time with the 4 minidisplay ports ?
Im a bit confused here..so please help me out

At the moment i have 3 samsung syncmaster 245B with DVI ports
So can i conenct 2 of my screens to the DVI ports on the card and use a "minidisplay port adapter to display port"
and then connect my third screen with this adapter i have. It needs a display port.

2.3 DP (Sept. 2005 model) whats best GFX card to upgrade to?

Hi,
I'm sick of my "whining" Radeon 9650 GFX card in my DP 2.3.
Whats a better card to get? Without spending silly amounts of money!
My main graphical things are video editing, and gaming.
Thanks

the graphics cards for macs seem to be special ones, I have looked at my 6800 and it seems to be different than the others, also on the nvidia/ATI websites they have different ones... I would try searching froogle( google shop) to find a place to buy the apple ones... also the 6800 is supposed to take power from 2 other places than the actial AGP slot.. on mine it doesn;t do this so it must be different for mac

Damaged GFX-card or AGP-port? (Fx5700 Ultra)

Hi
Before I decide to return my gfx-card to the store where I bought it I thought I'd ask you experts what you think of the problem. I would hate to get a new card back and still have "the problem". This is what happened...
Few days back decided to play some CounterStrike: Source, as I've done hundreds of times with this comp. and setup before. Suddenly my FPS drops to 5 and ping goes up to 600+. I checked Task-manager and CPU-usage was going from 20% to 99% with like 1 second intervals. Rebooted etc. and decided it was a problem with CS:s. I tried watching a movie and same thing happened (CPU going crazy and FPS dropping/topping all the time).
I then tried drivers, update MB etc. Nothing worked. So I put in my old GFX-card instead, a GF 4400 Ti, and everything worked like a charm! Video ran smooth and rames ran ok (obviously not as good as with the fx5700). I tried installing my FX5700 again, thinking it might have been a temporary thing, but the problem was/is still here.
Now my GF5700 Ultra ran at 8x AGP, and the old 4400 Ti only ran 4x AGP. So what do you guys think the problem might be ... GFX-card breakdown or AGP (MB) that no longer can handle 8x AGP (for whatever reason)?
Sorry about the long post but I thought I'd give as much info as possible in my first post
and no, no overclocking of any kind have been done. I tried to downclock the 5700 Ultra but problem stayed the same.
Anyone wanna give it a shot or do you need additional info?
Thanks

yeh ok. I have kind of found the problem, but will post my PSU-specs first for you to comment (I can always buy a better one anyway)
300W
+5V - 30A
+12V - 10A
-5V - 0.5A
-12V - 0.8A
+3.3V - 14A
+5V grnd - 2A
My GFX-card is broke tho. I just tested it on my buddies computer, who has a 400W PSU, and he got EXACTLY the same problems as I've experienced. What I find particularly odd tho is that I've been having mouseproblems for about 1 month - mouse going crazy once every hour (differs) by lagging ALOT (like the CPU didn't give it any room to even calculate movement etc.). Also I could not boot my computer when mouse was connected to the PS2-port (only USB worked). When my buddy tried my GFX-card he got not only the exact same graphical bugs but his mouse went crazy too - lagging and wouldn't boot if it was connected to PS2-port.
I find this very odd but atleast it proves that the GFX-card is the problem (but how can it be creating PS2-port shutdowns?).
Think I should invest in a new PSU to be on the safe side tho? I will return my GFX-card to get a new one ofcourse. Hope this is not a reaccuring thing for this model.
Thanks
