Hi, im new to this forum... i think its great here that everybody's so helpful fixin each others mac problems! so i figured to give it a shot...
here's how it goes:
For a long time i wanted to connect multiply monitors to my G5 1.8 dual. The problem was that the graphiccard's out were an ADC and a DVI. My monitors are VGA!
i got a DVI to VGA adapter, but its impossible to find a ADC to VGA adapter without payin a fortune... also i found out that they dont make em anymore!!
So i figured, why dont i get a ADC to DVI and a DVI to VGA, and put them together and make it work... but it didnt!!
So now i wanna buy a new Graphic card... found one already!
So my question is: Will this work in my G5?
