Installing new AGP card into G4? Help!
#2
What are the two G4s?
From Lowendmac:
The video card on G4 systems made after 1999.12.02 is "up to 40% faster" and includes a DVI interface for digital flat panel displays.

Because this model was created before Apple adopted the ADC port (which provides power to an external monitor), the Sawtooth G4 is unable to support ADC displays. It may also be incompatible with AGP 4x and later cards that include a retention tab. Because of voltage differences between the AGP 2x and 4x specs, newer cards may also be electronically incompatible with the Sawtooth G4.
A cuda reset couldn't hurt.
