Installed graphics card does not meet the minimum requirements for AP...

2006 MP with an HD 2600 and a 7300 GT card installed, 8 GB RAM, OS 10.4.11. Tried to install Aperture v1 from CD and got the error message "The installed graphics card does not meet the minimum requirements for Aperture" which disallowed upgrading to v1.5.6 because v1 would not install. So I downloaded and installed the v2 trial and got the same error message.
The release lever on the 7300 card would not work so I left it in slot 1 for now rather than risk breaking the card. That put the HD 2600 card in slot 2, which is not optimum but I do not think it should cause problems.
23" ACD connected to the HD 2600 card.
Ideas? I perused the threads and found similar reports but no solutions.
TIA

Answering my own question, I moved the ACD connection to the 7300 card and v2 Aperture installed OK.
Now I guess I need to get precise details on how to eject the 7300 card (mainly better directions than Apple's as to exactly what direction to force the release lever toward). I applied way more force than I am accustomed to and the card did not release.
Comments appreciated, TIA.

    Help.  I have an iMAC - not even one year old - just got this message - The installed graphics card does not meet the minimum requirements for Aperture.

    Try restarting your system.
    If that does not help, we will need to know your Aperture version and MacOS X version. And do you use an external monitor? Then disconnect it before rebooting.

    Please click Profile Update and follow the directions for updating your profile. Your computer may be too old to support Aperture however without knowing anything about your iMac it's impossible to say. Also there is an Aperture forum to use and you can look at Aperture's System Requirements below to see if you have the minimum.

  • HT4007 The installed graphics card does not meet the minimum requirements for Aperture.

    The installed graphics card does not meet the minimum requirements for Aperture.  I have not used Aperture in a while and just got this error message.  I tried applying OS updates and reinstalling Aperture and still get the same message.  Does anybody have a solution or work around.

    Are you using a non-standard Graphics Cards?  Then this may be the reason.
    You may also get this error message, if you accidentally booted into "Safe Boot Mode". Then certain extensions of the Graphics card will be disabled and Aperture cannot be launched.
    Reboot and make sure that you this time will boot into regular boot mode.
    See: Mac OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode?
    If you are indeed running the system in Safe Mode, the question is, what made this happen? Do you use a wireless mouse and keyboard? There is a strange bug that makes Mac OS X boot into Safe mode, if you turn the wireless devices on, while the system is booting. Make sure they are active, before you boot.
    But if you did not boot into Safe Mode, you could try to boot into this mode to reset the graphics card and then boot again into regular mode.
    Merry Christmas!

    There are actually two graphic cards in the system, the one you show in your post and one part of the motherboard.
    This is done on laptops to help save battery, when the system does need need high performance graphics, when it is doing text it uses the integrated graphics card, when it needs to do high performance graphics like when running Aperture it switches to the other card.
    It is possible something is wrong with your system preventing it from switching.  What OS version are you running, is it really 10.6.4?
    See MacBook Pro: How to determine which graphics processor is in use to determine which GPU is in use. But if it is not switching you most likely have a hardware problem.

  • The installed graphics card does not meet the minimum requirements

    Not true...
    I have been successfully running Aperture on a G5 dual 1.5 with an ATI x800xt video card. After a card failure (and a few restarts on the stock video card) Aperture refuses to identify the newly replaced ATI card.
    I have tried with and without the ATI software but no luck
    any thoughts?

    Is OS X recognizing your video card correctly? What does System Profiler think your video card is?

  • Error: The installed graphics card does not meet the minimum system requirements by Aperture

    I have a Mac Pro 3.1 10.5.8 and Aperture 2.1.4.  My NVida 8800gt with 512 mb was over heating so I brought and install the ATI radeon hd 5770 to replace it.  Now when I try to start Aperture I get this message "Error: The installed graphics card does not meet the minimum system requirements by Aperture".  All other software works fine, ie photoshop elements and Safari.  When I install my old card aperture will open with no problem, but of course the card will overheat within 10 mins and I will have no video.  I have search on google with no luck.  Will upgrading to Aperture 3 fix this problem?

    5770 requires 10.6.5.
    The 8800GT - there is the 350* bake in over 10 minutes - 50% or better chance
    you can find 8800GT on http://myworld.ebay.com/macvidcards/

    Fan control helps with FBDIMMs which need to be kept under 70C too.

  • This PC does not meet the minimum requirements for this version of iTunes

    Trying to update my iTunes, the installer gives the error message:
    "This PC does not meet the minimum requirements for this version of iTunes"
    I have gone through the procedures listed in the support section, and have completely removed all Apple software, deleted the file folders etc etc.... still no joy.
    This is most annoying as I've just received my brand new iPhone 6+ and I was trying to backup my old device to iTunes so I could restore it onto the new phone and get using it today.  Hacked off big time :-\

    Well I've eventually managed a work-around.  Ver. 11.5.1 was no good because it wasn't compatible with my iphone 5, next one wasn't compatible with my iphone 6+, eventually got 11.4 installed so I could back up my old iphone 5 to it, then restore that backup onto my iphone 6+, which then wasn't up to date with the current iOS so I had to do that before it would sync my apps.
    What a ball ache.
    If someone would kindly let me know when the latest iTunes works again I's appreciate it, until then I'll have to stick with what I've got.
    I need to start again with my music collection, re-import everything and get it on my iphone, because I had to delete it all a few months ago when iOS updated because it didn't have enough storage space on the device!  Somehow lost it all off my iTunes in the process!
    TBH I've always found the Apple system hideously complicated and infuriating when it doesn't work properly.  Instead of making it more and more complex it needs simplifying and making fool-proof so people don't have to go through all this BS just to use their **** phone!

    Hi
    recently had to reformat my system with windows 7 profesional. All windows updates where performed and all the drivers where installed correctly except the ethernet driver. windows 7 cannot find a suitable driver. I then downloaded the driver from the link provided on the hpe-590t download site, which is described as a intel gigabyte driver sp52222, however  the software driver comes up with the following message your system does not meet the minimum requirement for this update (9996). Has anyone had a similar problem.

    I tend to agree that either the NIC is bad or possiblly a factory restore would help.

  • Error: the installed graphics card does not meet the requirements for Apre

    I had Aperture working fine, and then I did an update on Jan 9, that added support for the Nikon 810 and some RAW format.  Nothing else changed, but Aperture now will not open, and give me the error message that my graphics card doesn't meet requirements.  Also, now when I open Photoshop, when trying to use the liquify tool, it says that my graphics accelerator has been turned off (not by me).  I tried to turn it back on, but it is grayed out in preferences and don't see any other place to enable it.  Also, now, my machine will only start in safe mode, and won't let me access the restore version prior to update.  Help me please.
    Also of note, scrolling of anything is very jittery, but this may be  because accelerator is turned off.

    You have probably accidentally booted into Safe Mode. Then the advanced features of the Graphics card will be enabled.  See this help document:
             Mac OS X: Starting up in Safe Mode
    Restart your mac and make sure it boots in normal mode.
    Sometimes a Mac may boot accidentally in Safe mode, if you are using Bluetooth devices -mouse or keyboard, and turn them on during the startup.  Always make sure, your bluetooth devices are already turned on, before you start your Mac.

    You '''''may''''' be able to access the site using Firefox by opening IE in a Firefox tab using the following extension. For safety, using this extension or IE directly, you must have the most current version of IE for system and keep it updated.

  • New iMac Intel - Hardware Does Not Meet the Minimum Requirements?

    When attempting to load Apeture I get a window pop up during the loading phase that states
    " Your computer hardware does not meet the minimum requirements for Apeture?"
    Any idea what this may be from. I have the new 17inch iMac with Intel processor and it worked before?
    Help woudl be greatly appreciated. This is my first Mac. I switched from a P.C. I have no idea how to even trouble shoot challenges as of yet.
    Thanks

    Hi, and welcome to the Mac.
    Aperture doesn't yet run on Intel hardware. A new version should be available in March, according to a blurb in the lower right corner of this page:
