[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1620016, member: 56379"] If I am understanding things correctly from post #1…you had this Mac Pro booting fine before adding the extra video cards…and doing some sort of DIY power cable setup for the video card/cards. Now you mentioned that you returned things back to where they were when things worked…but now the Mac Pro won't boot properly. There can only be two logical conclusions: 1. Everything has not been returned to the way it was when the Mac Pro worked fine. 2. Or…something got damaged when the extra video cards were installed…and the DIY power setup was done. What was the condition of this Mac Pro when you purchased it…or became the new owner? Was it supposed to be working fine 100%..or did it have problems? If it had problems…they may be intermittent…and this could be why the computer works fine one second…and not the next (under the same conditions). - Nick [/QUOTE]
