1 Hardware / ATI Radeon 7000

Thanks for the reply, feeef.

The bomb error was resolved by starting with a fresh System Folder. Something must have gotten corrupted in the multiple installations and restarts.

But the card still isn't giving a signal, VGA or DVI.

Did you remove and reattach the large battery on the motherboard? Or just press the small reset button?

I'm wondering if replacing that battery would do anything; not sure how old it is...

When you installed this card, what was your exact process?

I downloaded the drivers, installed them. Then plugged in the card. Attached monitor with DVI... nothing. Black screen.

Then when I try booting with monitor attached to built-in video... a bomb error happens during boot when ATI extensions are about to show.

To get the system working again I have to boot w/o extensions, remove all the ATI stuff from extensions folder... and my system is back to where I started.

I've tried zapping pram. No dice.

Am I missing something?

Thanks
3 Hardware / Power Mac 6500 Upgrades

So, I just picked up a 6500 to run 7.6.1 exclusively for nostalgia's sake.

Now I'm looking at potential upgrades and advice, primarily because I'm not entirely familiar with System7's limitations.

I intend to max out the ram. What about hard drive though? IDE drives can get significantly larger than the shipped 4GB - how high can I go? :-)

Intending to get Radeon 7000 for video. Not really interested in G3 at the moment. Considering OrangePC 620 for fun.

Anything I should especially be aware of?

Thanks for your help
