Mac Pro 2008 no video for anything bootcamp

I have a Mac Pro 3,1 running 10.8.3 with all updates installed. My video card is a NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT Device ID: 0x0601 Revision: 0x00a2 ROM: 3233 The video card works perfectly mac side, no issues, I see the white screen, then apple logo on bootup and it seems to work exactly as it should.
My problem is I tried to install Windows 7 Using Boot Camp, and the Boot Camp Assistant did its thing with no errors or anything, but once the computer restarted, the white screen came up and once it tried to boot from the Windows DVD, the screen just goes to "no signal" and shuts off.
I then tried removing the HDD and ran the bootcamp windows 7 install on a MBP, and installed the BootCamp Windows Support stuff, then tried to put the HDD back in my mac pro, thinking maybe its just drivers, but still as soon as I tried to boot from the windows partition, no siganl again... I beleive that windows is starting up, but for some reason, my video just goes caput -- no blinking curser, or anything, just like I shut down the computer, nothing...
I tried reseting PRAM and the SMC... I also tried removing all the other HDDs from the Mac, and booting with just the keyboard plugged in USB, Same result.
What can I do?

I figured, but it was worth a try... I deleted the Bootcamp partition and tried again witht the mac pro only but same resultes over and over, As soon as the mac begins to load from the windows install DVD the screen goes black and the display times out and goes to sleep, thought windows is still loading the disk can clearly be heard loading the installer for windows, but I can't see anything... "no signal" is the only feedback from the monitor.

  • Replacement mac pro 2008 motherboard

    Hi,
    It looks as if the logic board in my dual quad core 3Ghz mac 2008 mac pro has died.
    Rebooted it last night and I just get the grey screen, apple logo and spinning icon
    Removed all peripherals and network connections - no change
    tried to boot into safe mode and the sequence gets so far and then the machine shuts down
    removed all internal disks apart from system disk - no change
    replaced system disk with backup system disk - no change
    reset the EFI - no change
    removed some 4Gbyte memory DIMMS I'd installed recently - no change
    Took backup system disk into work and put into same age chassis and disk booted just fine.
    So
    1). Found a mac pro 2008 used motherboard for £345 on ebay - eek!!
    2). If all I need is a motherboaed, can I install a newer mac pro motherboard in the chassis I've currently got?

    have to agree, $600+ part www.dvwarehouse.com
    sounds like they really did not address (all) the problems and went for a superficial renstall the system with a new drive instead.
    10.7.5 may not be ideal OS for 3,1 2008s
    FBDIMMs are cheap now and higher quality, $64 8GB (I'll bet they soaked you though)
    SMC Reset for won't start
    the OEM graphic card, those are a MUST replace list, esp for 10.7.5 but for anyone too
    10.8.3 makes sense
    you have to avoid any old plugin drivers software now or go back to 10.6.8 which some find more reliable and because they rely on Rosetta to run PowerPC coded software.

  • Compatible HD for Early Mac Pro 2008

    Hello All,
    I have two failing drives in my early Mac Pro 2008 and its time to find some replacements. The drives I need to replace are 1TB in size but I was looking to get something larger being 1.5TB. I read on a site that this version of Mac Pro supports a maximum of 4TB accross all the four bays which would essentially mean a maximum of 1TB for each Bay. Here is the link to the site: http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/mac_pro/faq/mac-pro-how-to-upgrade-hard-dr ives-what-type-supported.html
    Question I have, is whether its safe to add two 1.5TB drives (I also have a 640GB for the boot and 500GB additional data drive) or should I stick with 1TB drives? Also, is there any advantage in going beyond the 3Gb/s Serial ATA spec as I would suspect the faster drives would not be utilized to their capacity given the older data path in this machine.
    Any help/advice would be appreciated and thanks in advance!
    Cheers,
    Vin.

    You can put any make and any size 3.5" drive in all the bays in any combination.  Also SATA 3's will work but of course at not their full maximum speed as you mentioned so SATA 2's are OK.
    As an example, if you got 4 3TB's you could stuff them in there for a max of 12TB.  Bit of overkill unless you really need all that space!
    Personally I like Western Digital 1TB and 2TB blacks.
    You might also want to consider using an SSD as your boot drive.
    Update: I took a look at that site you linked.  That 4TB limit is the max any one drive bay can support, not the total capacity across all 4 bays.

  • Mac Pro 2008 Can't start Windows 7 / 8 Installer

    I'm trying to load Windows 8 (And have previously tried everything with Windows 7) on my Mac Pro early 2008 with Mountain Lion, and cannot get the installers to initiate.
    When I start the bootcamp assistant and reboot, my mac freezes before ever getting to the installer. When I reboot and hold option to manually select the installer, it freezes as soon as I select it. I've tried this from a DVD, USB, and even an install partition i setup on my HD, all with the same freezing results. This is a legitimate copy of Windows 8 system builder I'm working with and have installed it perfectly in Parallels.
    I should note I upgraded my video card a long time ago to a gt 120, so I'm wondering if the video card might be the problem. I've installed Windows 7 with this video card in the past so I'm guessing this is a Mountain Lion/Bootcamp 5 issue.
    Has anyone else with a Mac Pro 2008 succesfully installed Windows 7/8 from Mountain Lion/Bootcamp 5?
    Any input would be immensely appreciated!

    There are no Windows 8 Bootcamp drivers. Windows 8 is not supported.
    Use Parallels or Fusion to install Windows 8. By doing so you eliminate the need for drivers since the virtual machine creates virtual hardware and drivers.
    Once the Windows 8 Bootcamp drivers are developed and released you can then install using Bootcamp Assistant.
    Read this forum. Some people are posting that they had some success with the Bootcamp install. but if you have to rely on your computer then don't take the chance.

  • Mac Pro 2008, no soundcard with Lion

    Hi,
    I installed on my Mac Pro 2008 Lion and remarked, there is no more soundcard
    I returned to Snow Leopard and the sound worked
    now, I wanted to have iCloud with my other Apple Hardware, but when I restarted the Mac Pro while the Installation of Lion, the Soundcard was away.
    So I think, this is obvious a problem of Lion!
    Is there any update to avoid this?
    Heeeeelp!

  • Adding USB 2.0 ports to a Mac Pro 2008

    Hi,
    I love my Mac Pro 2008! Great machine, awesome performance, but I need more ports Who needs only three USB ports in the back, that's a joke!
    Anyways, I just bought 2 StarTech 6-port USB 2.0 PCI cards from an online vendor, but quickly found out that it didn't fit my Mac. The description of the card even says it is compatible with Mac OS X. I suspect that Apple have changed the PCI slots for something else in the Mac Pro 2008. What are they and can we buy USB card that fit those slots? If so where? I am desperate for more ports.

    You may have stumbled upon or checked some of the support pages?
    http://www.apple.com/support/macpro/
    - which has a link to an article titled "about your PCI Express slots"
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304122
    Specs 2008: http://support.apple.com/kb/SP11:
    PCI Express expansion7
    Three open full-length PCI Express expansion slots
    One PCI Express 2.0 x16 slot
    Two PCI Express x4 slots
    And of course support for up to four PCI Express video cards; Fibre Channel; Mac Pro RAID.
    You could install a powered USB hub, or FW/USB2, as long as you have free slots for more. I have FW800, a 1x Sonnet Tempo (couple storage drives), and a 4x Tempo (multiple RAID sets; Port Multiplier card and multi-drive enclosures and 4 channels).

  • My Mac pro 2008, not running after the Apple logo, i rebooting and i rebooting

    My Mac Pro 2008 no boot afther the Logo Apple, reboot, reboot and reboot only, and in XP, the graphic is pertubed with bad graphics ... the mémory it's good, and i thinks my card graphic is out. SRY for my english, it's not my language. Help my please, my apple care is finished 10/2011, and i will repared itself. Many thanks. Alain Muno

    Not saying this IS your problem, but … I just went through avery similar problem with Mac Pro3,1. Here is my story.
    On boot of any Mac OP system drive, internal or externalHDD, (Lion or Snow Leopard), original Mac Pro install CD, Snow Leopard CD,nothing.  (Would only go to gray screen,apple logo, spinning gear that would stop spinning after about a minute.)  But, it would boot on XP drive.  However, in XP, on Windows black startupscreen, had alternating columns of two different patters of blue dots and XPgraphics were not as they should be (larger icons on desk top, slow response,different size of desk top (maybe 600x400 when it should have been1024x768).  Supplied hardware test showedno failures.  Took it to shop.  Their better diagnostics showed nofailures.  All peripherals (my drives, myCDs, etc, disconnected.  (NOTE: they didnot try a new video card since they did not have one.)  Still would not start even using their drives(external or internal).  Shop tried a newlogic board.  That did not work and theyput the original one back in.  Shop saidall they could come up with was new processors. This was not a cost effective option and they had none to try.
    After thinking about it more, I figured it could be thevideo card: the original 8800 GT that came with the Mac: that it was so bad itwould not start in Mac OS but would limp along in XP.  I was all set to buy another vid card one-bay just to try.  While doing thatresearch, came across several articles on the Internet that discussed vid cardfailure due to micro-cracks in some solder joints.  These develop due to age/heat cycles.  The proposed fix was to ‘reflow’ the solder.  Figured it was worth a try before spendingthe money on a new vid card.  Found thesedetailed instructions on youtube.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T7um_hZYom4  I followed the procedure, put the vid cardback in, and now it works just fine.
    I did not and would not do this until I had ruled outeverything else.  But, it has worked forothers and it did work for me.

  • Mac Pro 2008 won't boot from install disc - black screen

    Hello,
    I recently purchased a new hard drive to replace the original that came with my Mac Pro 2008.  I was able to format the new drive using Disk Utility. I am now at the point where I need to install OS X onto the new drive, but the computer refuses to boot from the disc. The disc is recognized by the computer (I can access the disc and am able to use the BootCamp applications, etc.) but I just get a black screen when trying to boot directly from the disc. The computer boots fine otherwise.
    I have tried the following:
    I have tried using both the gray install disc that came with the computer and the Snow Leopard Install DVD disc.
    I have tried booting using the "C" key and the "option" key but still receive a black screen following the chime (I've held these down for several minutes).
    I have tried restarting from either install disc using the Bootcamp Assistant.
    I have tried running the installation software to get it to restart from the disc.
    I have tried a combination of the drives, i.e. trying to boot from the discs with just the new drive installed, just the original drive installed, and with both in bay1 and 2.
    Everything results in the computer starting up, hearing the chime, and then nothing..just black screen. I have the original drive partitioned with BootCamp with OSX Snow Leopard and Windows 7 installed (I don't know that that matters).
    I am at a loss as to what to try next. It doesn't seem like the superdrive because it is recognizing the disc, it just won't boot from it.
    Any help is appreciated, thank you.

    Clone should be a must  and easy to do and learn (learn by doing! 2)
    6800 would 'qualify' as 5x70 series flashed etc and same rule: 10.6.5
    In the past there was 10.4.6, 10.5.6, but not 10.6.6 - even though strong need for such a DVD.
    10.6.8 DVD would  be excellent
    Lion or ML - buy, download, make an installer flash card would be what I would do at this point.
    Then keep both - dual boot as you learn and test and see what ML does and waht you had that required Rosetta to support PowerPC. See www.roaringapps.com about that.
    With Carbon Coyp Cloner - was share, now commercial, great utility been around since 10.2.2 at least - this time 2003. 10 yrs.
    You can clone the system folders, you can even selectively choose. You can skip copy of most of your home account and do that separately to another drive if  you want.
    Clone Windows with Paragon or WinClone and use Windows 7 or 8 DVD to do a system repair (automatic) or to edit the BCD file. It can and should - and all you do is boot Windows 7 DVD w/ only the one drive present and go at it. Piece of cake. But yes, Windows gets fussy if you change or remove or move. BCD to the rescue. A proper program for cloning like Paragon's "Clone OS" meant for going from disk drives to SSDs, knows that and how to do it.
    Back to how to clone etc:
    Clone
    Disk utility has RESTORE which will also clone your system but not the Lion Recovery partition. Oddly  Apple did not 'endorse' making bootable clone of the system which works too but most choose Carbon Copy Cloner - it works more consistently; it allows for smart update of the backup volume. Both can backup to a sparse disk image if desired.

    The DVD is dependent on your hardware. And your hardware changed. The drivers for the 5780 and 6xxx are bundled in the OS and lacking. Minimum build thing.
    Put the new drive anywhere you want. Does not matter. Can move it later. Can be drive bay 0-3 or a Firewire external or under the DVD drive.
    When you clone pull the old drive and boot from the newly cloned.
    After that keep a backup clone around all the time. Takes less than 10 minutes to do a smart update to copy just the changes to keep it current. So you have working copy of the system. I keep Clone "A" that I keep "as was" the system as of last month or whatever (like 10.7.4 before upgrade to 7.5).
    Comes easier after doing it once and have all your ducks in a row.

  • Mac Pro 2008 or iMac 27 i7 ? Which to choose?

    I am looking to upgrade to a faster Mac from my current Macbook Pro and decided either on an iMac 27 inch i7 2.8 GHz 8 Gigs RAM 4870 Video card or buy a used Mac Pro 2008 with 2 x 2.8GHz 4 Core (8 core total) with 10 Gigs RAM and an 8800GT video card.
    Both come to almost the same price. Problem is I don't know which to get. The system will be used mainly for software development, running windows 7 and linux as Virtual Machine, some light gaming, and music (sampling, etc)
    I love the iMac's LED screen and the i7 certainly is fast but love the Mac Pro's expandability in terms of hard drives and memory and I would use it on my 30 inch LCD. That said, would I ever go past the Mac Pro's configuration of 2 TB's of drives (maybe) and more than 10 Gigs RAM (don't know)? You're stuck with the iMac in terms of hard drives forced to add slow external cases.
    The Mac Pro is over 2 years old at this point but I know the Mac Pro is a work horse and the iMac has had issues.
    Anyone have an opinion on this? Might it be worth saving some more cash (although would take another 6 months) and getting a 2009 Mac Pro?
    Let me know...

    Asked a lot and the new iMac makes it look better, but not for triple boot unless you stict to VMs most of the time. The freedom of having alternate OSs on their own drives and such.
    AppleInsider gave the high end iMac makes sense if you go that route, and if you would need a monitor as well?
    Barefeats has posted a number of tests of the iMacs
    http://www.barefeats.com
    Even the 2009 $2149 4-core is no slouch and easier to find and work with.
    At that price, you are close to the 2010. So wait another 36 hrs.

  • Need help with Mac Pro (2008) iCloud sync problem

    I am using a Mac Pro (Early 2008) with multiple drives and partitions, some of which I use for various software testing.  I wanted to have access to the same data on various partitions, so I tried to use iCloud to store some Pages files. I found that in the Mountain Lion Partition that I normally use, that the document data ( Pages, Numbers, etc) would not upload to the cloud... just showed as waiting. All other iCloud Data ( Calendar, Address Book , etc) did sync fine. If I accessed iCloud using a browser or looked on iClould using the iCloud Manage function in the iCloud system preferences, I could see all the files.  I then found that I did have another Mountain LIon partition in which the data syncing all worked.  Other testing showed that if I did a clone of the working partition using SuperDuper, the clone worked properly, but if I did a clean install of 10.8.4, the document data did not sync.If I did a clean install and used the migration assistant to migrate from the working partition, it still did not work.  I later found that if I replaced the top level Library file in a non working partition with the one from the working partition, that I could make the non working partition sync properly. I have not been able to find a subset of the folder that would make things work, but have not tried every combination. At this point my only conclusion is that there must be a bug in the 10.8.4 installer. Apple has been working on this for a few weeks, but has not found anything and cannot duplicate... but they are testing with iMacs.
    Is there anyone with a Mac Pro (2008) who can do a clean install of 10.8.4 on a partition and see if they can still access their iCloud data (Pages, Numbers, Etc). If so that would probably confirm the otherwise unexplanable problem.

  • Mac Pro 2008 always crash after sleep and after first start

    Hello, new in the forum,
    2 years ago, I replaced the main disk of a Mac Pro 2008 for a SSD Samsung 470 256 Go.
    Until then, it always crashed 1 or 5 minutes after sleep mode (which I didn't used much), and not always 10 to 15 minutes after the first start of the day.
    No matter if I was working on it or not… Suitcase installed or not (no font problem here). Rest of the day was fine (if no sleep !).
    The difference of speed was so big and "good" that I dealed with it. I though that the Mac Pro was a little old for the SSD technology, and that Apple would fix it, with chance…
    2 weeks ago, I installed Maverick :
    I got crashs during the work flow too. I needed to re-start 3 times at least… Re-start without extension was ok (or not), re-start, crash, re-start without extension, restart ok. I used Onyx, did PRAM too. And sometimes, I needed to re-install Maverick or even to do a clean-install !
    So I suspected the Samsung 470 for all (sleep and work crashs) and replaced it for a Samsung 840 Pro 512 Go.
    And the Mac Pro returned to Mountain Lion.
    Not really better : no crash one day (yeeeees!) and crash after the first start the next day (nooooo!). Every time I tested sleep mode, it crashed.
    My system :
    Mac Pro 3.1 - 2,8 GHz - Quad
    Mountain Lion, 10 Go ram DDR2, ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT, 30' cinema display.
    Adobe CS5 alone (minimal install) with Onyx to repair after each crash.
    Could it be the video card, the mother board, the age of the boy ?
    Thanks a lot !
    Christophe S

    Edit !
    I said that Finder and apps were blocked after 10 seconds (without extension).
    But it was to clic on Launchpad that blocked all, and 5 minutes later it works again.
    I did clic again on Launchpad, it blocked and 2 minutes later it appeared full screen but with rainbow circle, and quit.
    - Restarted with extensions. Kernel panic!
    - Restarted the mac and the grey screen with Apple blocked, without any mouse this time. 15 minutes later, still blocked.
    - Forced restart without extension. Here are the reports of Kernel Panic and EtreCheck:

  • Mac Pro 2008 Apple Cinema Displays are black and there are start up issues

    I have a Mac Pro 2008 Dual quad 2.8 GHz. I have two Apple Cinema Displays (graphics are the standard ATI Radeon HD 2600 – 2 dual link DVI. I have 4 2-GB RAM sticks (8 GB total).
    Neither of my displays are showing anything. Their power lights are on but they are completely black throughout the start up process. In addition when I try to boot up with both graphics cards installed, I get nothing – no beeps no chimes. If just one card is installed (either card in either slot) the computer beeps, chimes and makes the sounds of booting up, but not a flicker on the displays. RAM does not seem to be the issue as I have tried booting with several configurations of RAM sticks with no negative or positive effects. I tried booting up with Hard Drives 1 & 2 removed with no effect.  I have tried several different start up moods and have reset PRAM.
    My guess is that there is something wrong with the motherboard. Or is it possible that both graphics cards are bad?

    The "least intensive" thing you can do is hold down Alt/Option at Startup. Thsi invokes the all-in-ROM Startup Manager, which will light up the screen gray or blue, then attempt to draw an Icon for each potentially-bootable Volume attached (if any). It works as if in slow motion, so you must be patient. If no activity after about two minutes you may count that as a failure.
    The next most intensive is to attempt to boot from an incorruptible source of software, such as an Installer/Utilities DVD. This again uses the "one-size-fits-all" display driver, and attempts to load software off the DVD. The dark colored Apple is loaded off a drive -- it is not present inside your Mac.
    The next most intensive step is to attempt to boot into Safe Mode. This also uses the "one-size-fits-all" display Driver, and does a disk check as it starts up, adding five minutes to the startup time. It then drwas a login screen and deamds your username and password, even if you normally auto-login.
