Nvidia Geforce 6800 gt how to check if its for a Mac

Hi Japamac,

Thank you. It doesn't look like that in fact it looks completly different. Is it possible to email you the pictures of it? Also it has a VGA and DVI and Svideo connections, how would I flash it to work in a Mac do you have steps for this?
Cheers,
Paul

awesome thanks I will buy this card and try to flash it. Thank Japamac.

Japamac, do you know how I can back up the PC Rom in case the Mac flash fails?

Hi Japamac,

I going to asking you a stupid question but I'm new to this. I have an old PC which has a PCI and AGP slot. From the instruction to flash this card I understand I need to have a regular PCI video card to view what I'm doing. The Geforce card will go into the AGP slot. Now the stupid question the computer I have doesn't have a floppy drive is there another way to get to the command prompt? Then the files I need to do the flash how would I do it without a floppy drive?

Cheers,
Paul

Hi,

Here are some pictures of the card I'm going to buy. From the videos I have seen this card looks nothing like it. Will it still flash?

Hi Folks,

I have run into a snag.

It Didn't work....

Any ideas? I followed this document to a tee..
http://themacelite.wikidot.com/nvidia-general-flashing

I tried
a:\>nvflash --index=0 -4 -5 -6 -j nvmac.rom
a:\>nvflash --index=0 -6 -j nvmac.rom

The PCI card I have is an Nvidia so for the index I orginally tried was 1 but it came back with an invalid display adaptor.

I have a G5 mac not sure why this isn't working I tried using the VGA and DVI ports same results. I don't need to tape the contacts since I have the G5 so I have ruled that out.
I did the nvflash --eraseeeprom as well and I'm using NVFLASH 5.77
Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong? do i need to do anything with the CWSDPMI. EXE file?

Thanks for you help.
