Power Mac G5 crashes after installing new Graphics Card

Hello, this is my first post and if anyone can offer any help with my problem I would greatly appreciate it. Sorry for the long description, but I want to get all of the facts out.
Its a bit convoluted, but here goes...
I was having a problem with one of my G5 computers and I thought at first that the problem was the graphics card. So I bought an ATI Radeon 9600XT card on eBay. Before that card arrived, I determined that the problem with the computer was a faulty firewire card, I replaced that and this computer now runs fine.
After the Radeon card was delivered, I put it in another G5 (1.6 processor) being that it was an upgrade from the nVidia GeForce FX 5200 that was already in the computer. After about a week, this computer crashed and crashed repeatedly. So I switched the card back to the original nVidia GeForce FX 5200, but it still kept crashing.
I then initialized the drive and reinstalled 10.4. This did not solve the problem, the computer keeps crashing with the screen that says "this computer needs to restart..." same as before. I then swapped this nVidia GeForce FX 5200 card with another identical nVidia card that I have from a 3rd G5. This not only did not stop the crashes, but caused this third G5 to crash.
When I start the G5 1.6 up in safe boot, the computer does not crash and will run stable.
I really would appreciate any advice.

Ok I ran AHT on both machines and everything passed on both. The G5 #1 (1.6) restarted and ran ok (in and out of sleep mode) overnight. When I shut down, the screen went dark and all seemed well, but the computer never actually "shut off".
Anyway I thought that if I could pull the panic logs from each machine that it may be helpful for someone to diagnose just exactly what is going on. So here are the panic logs for each G5.

No Signal after installing new graphics card

Hello and thanks in advance for your help!
We have a 2yr old HP p6540y. It has an ATI integrated Video Card. When we recently turned it on, we got a 'no signal' message on the monitor and then it would go to sleep. We have tried several things to fix...listed below, in order, and are still getting the same message. Please advise!
1) No Signal: DVI, VGA, HDMI. So we unplugged and restarted, no change.
2) Checked monitor and DVI & VGA cords with another computer: They all work.
3) Installed new Graphics Card: NVIDIA GEForce GT 610. Still got same 'no signal' message.
4) We plugged/unplugged all other cards/cords/anything we could and cleaned out. Then, finally, the monitor turned on! But not for long....
5) After restarting computer after installation of graphics card driver, we got the 'no signal' message again. We once again, pulled out other cards/plugs and again the monitor/computer came to life.
6) We unistalled the integrated ATI graphic card. When we go to Display, Advanced Options, it lists our new NVIDIA as graphic/display card.
7) We turned computer off overnight and this morning when we turned on, we once agin got the 'no signal' message. We unplugged/plugged computer in several times. Also tried the trick with pulling out cards/plugs and we got nothing. No Signal. After doing this several times (about 10), it finally worked again.
8) We changed sleep settings to: Screensaver=Never; Sleep Mode=Never.
9) We restarted again to once again get no signal message.
So...what do we need to do?
Thanks so much!

3000 j115 A11 stopped working after installing new graphics card

I thought i would be slick and install a new graphics card (asus GEForce 8500GT) after i put it in my 3000 j115 A11 everything stopped working. I can turn the tower on and it gives two beeps. Nothing displays on the monitor (it doesn't leave powersaving mode). It is also very quiet like it is not even trying to work. Did I just destroy my computer? Is there anything I can do?
PS. I did take the asus card back out, so I'm not that lucky
PSS. Got back to being able to boot but now I can't get back into bios to switch from PCI back to original built in card. If I try it just hangs after pressing enter to interupt normal setup

I find this thread very interesting. I am assuming this system (3000 j115 A11) is the same as one I mentioned in a post from June 12 (7387A11... Graphics upgradeable?).... and is still hanging out there. Perhaps if Lenovo, or anybody else for that matter, could/would provide SPECIFIC upgrade instructions we could all be enlightened. (In my case I do not own a Lenovo computer but I am hoping to help my sister-in-law with her Lenovo and don't look forward to a major meltdown if the systems are not capable of this, otherwise, simple upgrade.)
Niether of the 2 previous posters mentioned if they upgraded the PS in thier respective systems prior to the graphics card installation (although ala17 "recently" did.). One had issues and the other didn't. If that should be the first step toward the upgrade, it would be helpful to know beforehand.
Thanks and good luck. Post back if you get to the bottom of it.

No onboard audio after installing new graphics card

Good afternoon,
This is my system:
Pavilion Elite 5100t ATX PX
Vista 64
Raedon HD 5670
After installing the video card, the onboard 5.1 audio panel at the back only produces sound for the subwoofer. The front headphone jack is still working. The video card supports HDMI, and therefore has an audio component in it. I tried the following without any solution:
1. Setting onboard audio as "enable" in BIOS
2. Choosing "speakers" as default in control panel-->sound
3. Disabling the HDMI audio output in control panel-->sound
4. Uninstalling both audio drivers (onboard Realtek and AMD from the VC) with auto-reinstallation when restart
Those are the common recommendations I got from different forum. Your help is greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Did you try the latest Realtek audio driver?
I had a problem similar to yours with my NVIDIA GT 460. It turned out to be a bad Realtek audio driver. I had to go back to the original Realtek driver that came with my HP PC until Realtek fixed that issue that I reported to them. I had tried six differnet Realtek drivers.

6 beeps after installing new graphic card

Hi I just bought a new graphic card for my p6-2055sc and it makes 6 beeps when trying booting up.
The new graphic card is Geforce GTX 750ti
I cant get it to work.
Have tried to find the latest BIOS but the latest one is from 2012 :/
Please help me.

Thanks for the quick answers. I think i will buy a new motherboard or a upgrade package. Is it possible that someone can answer if this all would work together ?
I thinking of buying this sort of upgrade package when im still on a "spending money spree".

Startup problems after instaling new graphics card drivers

PC: HP p6520 f with a 400 watt power supply
video card: AMD Radeon 6570 (MD1GD3)
After getting the 400 watt power supply, I was able to uninstall the intergrated graphics card's drivers, but I can't succsesfully startup after installing drivers for the new card without a system restore, which of course gets rid of the new drivers.
I've tried newer drivers, but those don't work either.
Any suggestions?

Hello Sev_07. I understand you're unable to install your video card drivers.
Are you receiving an error on boot?
Are you experiencing any issues with other pieces of hardware?
Have you tried running HP Support Assistant and Windows Update to ensure all of the software and drivers are completely up to date?
It may also be helpful for you to provide your product number so I can look at your computer's specifications. This document can show you where this is located.
I hope you have a great day!

Program Monitor is Black, no video playback after installing new graphics card

I bought a PNY Nvidia Quadro 2000 graphics card a few days ago, and since it's been installed, I've been unable to watch video playback in my program, source or even reference monitor.
Similarly, If I designate one of my monitors soley for video playback, the screen is just black, and as the timecode advances on my timeline I only hear sound.
My project is using "Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration" for Premiere Pro CS6.0.1
I went from using one graphics card to using two graphics cards, and installed a third monitor. I've spent the last few days trying everything I could think of, I even uninstalled and re-installed premiere.
Hardware Specs:
Windows 7 Ultimate (64-bit)
HP Pavilion h8-1230z
AMD-FX8150 3.59Ghz 8 core processesor
16GB RAM
600W PS
EVGA Nvidia GeForce GTX 550Ti
PNY Nvidia Quadro 2000
I am using a PCI x16 for the Quadro 2000
I am using a PCI x1 slot w/x1-x16 adapter for the 550Ti
Could this be the problem?
Additional Information
Vectorscope, All scopes, YC Waveform - Display modes all work.
I downloaded the most recent Nvidia drivers for both of my cards.
I haven't received any error messages or had any problems in After Effects CS6, as video playback is working properly in my other adobe applications.

I am still building a new system, so currently I'm still using a 480. You can read all about my choices and progress here: Adobe Forums: Planning / building a new system. Part 1
There are 11 entries in the Benchmark Results that succesfully use the GTX 680, even though it is not 'supported'. They all use the 'hack'. However, the 680 has been added to the list of supported cards for AE, so it is only a matter of time before the 680 will be added to the list of supported cards for PR. Todd had made that clear. Now, when the 680 is added, it makes sense that the 670 will also be added. My guess is that both will be added in a short while.

Crashes ather installing new Graphics Card

Hi;
I have installed a new MSI 6600GT AGP to my mobo yesterday. Everyting worked fine that day. But today my PC randomly stops responding, totally freezes. My Old GPU was a fx5600 and there was no problem with it. But I had a bsod problem that time and solved it by increasing my RAM voltage to 2.7(thx to this forum)
With my new video card my PC totally stops responding. The screen freezes. I am using two sticks of Kingston Value RAM 256x2 at 400mhz Dual and PAT enabled. I tried removing one of the sticks and my problem dissappeared. Both of the sticks run fine this way. But When I use them together my PC crashes. changing the voltage, ram slots, single mode or disabling the PAT didnt worked. As you may understand 256 is not enough for a gamer. I want to use my two sticks in dual mode (I am using default timings CL3 so on) In fact I dont even know if it is a RAM problem at all.
I thought about PSU issue or a overheating issue. But there is no fluctiuation in voltages, no overheating on GPU, RAMs or GPU. My PSU has
+12v 18A
+5v 28A
+3.3v 30A
It is a Aopen/FSP AO35012APN(PF) with Passive PFC 350 watts.
I couldnt find an option on my bios to disable fastwrites for my card. Fastwrites can be disabled any other way?
I have also format my machine but it didnt work.
I beg your help. or i will go mad..
My system specs:
P4 2.8 Presc. HT@Stock HSF / MSI i865PE Neo 2 PLS / 256x2 Kingston DDR400 RAM / MSI NX6600GT VTDR 128 AGP 8x VIVO / 80GB Samsung SATA 7200@8MB / 52x Aopen CDROM / 52x32x52x16 Samsung Combo / Creative Audigy 2ZS / Philips MMS 460 5.1 / Datron DpF7700 / Pikatel Quartet ADSL Router / Hw hosting by Aerocool AeroEngine Mid-Tower case powered by Aopen A0350PN(PF) 350W PSU and cooled by 2x 4cm(NB-VGA), 2x 8cm(Case), 2x 12cm(Case, PSU)

Of course it'll be good if the card was the problem .
Btw, those are just "reported" numbers for the "card's power consumption" and should not be trust. Didn't Intel previously mentioned about low heat and low power consumption for their E stepping CPUs? What turns out was a minimum of 20A is needed on +12v and expecting to see 50c on the CPU temp idle...
To say that FX5600 consumes more power than NX6600, I don't think I can agree with that since NX6600 is at the higher end core than FX5600 but if you want to have the figures of power consumption, sorry that I can't produced any just that it is true. Just think of why would PSU manufacturers comes out with more high power PSU rather than improving on the low power PSUs?

Super Grainy picture after installing new graphic card

I followed all directions to a "T" with removing the old card and installing the new card. Its in the correct AGP slot. When I turned on the computer my desktop was black and white and super grainy looking. I could barely see anything. I then installed the software and that was successful but my display still looked the same. I then restarted my computer and it took a little longer than normal to come up. However when it finally came up, I have NO picture now. I use a HDTV for a monitor since I do video editing. I am using a DVI cable from computer to TV. I should note that when I first turn on the computer I can clearly see the screen with the APPLE and spinning gear. After that it goes down hill in terms of picture quality.
What could be wrong?
The card is a ATI RADEON 9600 PRO and was recommended for Powermac G5's.
I am typing this from my laptop while I am working on my desktop. I just did a hard turn off/restart and this time my desktop came up much faster and I can see it a lot better but there is still grainy noise on 90% of the screen. My DVI cable is fully connected as well.
Any suggestions?

Hi-
Because you are connected to a TV rather than a monitor, it could be that the resolution is not set correctly.
Try to set a different resolution for the screen through you Display System Preferences. If you can't see properly, try a boot to Safe Mode (hold Shift while starting) and then open the Display preference panels.
You will have to restart normally, after setting the resolution, to test the change.
If you have a computer monitor, try the monitor. If the monitor exhibits the same problems, I would consider that that particular card is the problem, and would return it.

Applications Crashing After Installing New Softwarre

Hi Folks,
Just wondering if anyone can help with an issue I'm having. After installing certain software (1st time this happened it was Skype, 2nd time it was Google Earth), applications such as Safari and Firefox crash when I either go to Print or Page setup within those applications.
When I use the Disk Utility (Verify Disk) it says:
Verifying volume “Macintosh HD”
Checking HFS Plus volume.
Checking Extents Overflow file.
Checking Catalog file.
Invalid sibling link
The volume Macintosh HD needs to be repaired.
Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit
1 HFS volume checked
Volume needs repair
At this point Repair Disk is not an option. If I wipe the drive and reinstall OSX from the install dvd the disk is fine. This makes me think it is a software issue, but it is hard for me to identify what exactly is going on. This is a new system, only a few months old, so I am hoping it isn't a hardware issue.
I've pasted in the Problem Report from Safari below.
At any rate, any insight would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers,
Ryan

Computer crashed after installing new itunes version

My laptop just crashed after installing the new 9.0.2 upgrade. Upon reboot I received a dos screen that said my computer shut down due to a recent download and asked if I wanted to reboot in safe mode or normal mode. I chose to reboot normally and the computer would not boot. Now my laptop won't power up at all. Is there anything I can do, or has itunes killed my laptop??

Please help me ! I don't understand why I had to restore to factory settings and then when I tried to re-sync it kept telling me iTunes is not working. Why ??

How to install new graphics card

Hi everyone. I have an intel mac pro and i want to install my pci express ati xtx 1900 card into it. It fits in the slot nice and snug but requires the 6 pin power cable to run the card. I have no idea where this is inside the mac and need help getting my new graphics card to work. i know this card works on a mac so how to i do this. please, please someone help. thank you

If you click on the "manuals" from the small strip above, then click on Desktop -> Mac Pro ->
http://www.apple.com/support/manuals/macpro/
There is a pdf. You should also have a small booklet that came with the Pro, and I am surprised the card doesn't come from Apple with a guide and photos.

Help with installing new graphics card

Hi I have a 3 year old hpe575a (hp pavillion)
Intel i7 2600, 8gb ram
Orginally had a ati hd radeon 2gb (not sure what model)
in it
after 2 years the radeon finally melted ( always had overheating problems in the australian summer )
so I bought a nvidia gtx630m which had the same connections and power requirements and connections as the radeon
I csnt seem to get it working, despite the card powering up, and loading the splash screen it doesnt go any further, I can get to the network boot screen or the hp splash screen but no further, and I cant find any bios updates for my mptherboard (pegatron) so do I need a new motherboard? The computer works 100% fine without the new graphics card
Should I get a new motherboard. Or graphics card? which would be cheaper? or is there someway to get the current system to work with the new graphics card? thanks -zac

Hi,
The existing card is an "AMD Radeon HD6570 (2 GB)". I don't know how you can fit a Nvidia GTX630M to your machine because this card is for laptop:

Probably you are talking about the following card:
    http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gt-630/specifications
The card should be able to use 300W PSU on your machine (no need new PSU). My suggestion:
(a) Update BIOS to the latest one, please check, should be "Version7.15 Rev. A" the motherboard is Cleveland

(b) Install driver for new card
Hope this helps.
Note: Autumn now but still hot isn't it ?

Installing new graphics card in hp p7-1155

I have a new EVGA GEFORCE GT730 2GB GDDR5 graphics card and am ready to install it in the above box.
Haggiscat suggested this board thru a previous post on this site. I have printed out the install directions from the hp help so I have the mechanics of how to install this thing. Those directions say to disable the on-board graphics card first, then go into the box and install the new card. My question is: Do I need to do anything else first such as downloading the driver first/delete the old driver first.etc? Also, I have a disc that came with the new card. Do I use that to get the drivers or go to the invidia website? I want this install to go as smoothly as possible so expert help would be appreciated.
I'm not sure how to direct you to the previous post but it's in this section. Take a look for some background.
Thanks

Hi,
I suggest that your carefully read the instructions published by EVGA. I have multiple EVGA graphics cards and none of the directions ever suggested to uninstall the old video drivers prior to installing the new graphics card. Use the drinver disk that comes with the graphics card after your boot up. The default Windows drivers will work and then you can install the EVGA supplied drivers. EVGA also has a web site that you can obtain later drivers that have been tested by EVGA for your graphics card.
The modern HP motherboards will automatically switch to the discrete graphics card if detected and if it is compatible with the BIOS and motherboard.
The NVIDIA 7xx series graphic cards have been problematic with HP motherboards using a version 7 BIOS. some may work and some may not work.
The reality is that there is no a guarantee that any particular graphics card will work in any particular PC even if the graphics card works in other PCs or even the same or similar model PCs. Know what the return policy is before you buy.
