Upgrading a grafix card on a 350Mhz slot loading iMac....
Does anyone know if its possable?
I know the thing is soddered to the motherboard... but Is there anyway to remove it and sodder on a new one?
I am be no means a genuis, but Im trying to get started in Mac repairs and upgrades (so I can build my own stuff, like a Mac clone...)
Im getting a bunch of Mac parts from a guy I know.... and I may be able to build a mac clone from that... so I may not need to upgrade it... but I probly will if I can... just to see if I can ^^
well my computer stats are...
350Mhz G3 slot loading iMac 512mb of RAM (getting another 512 next month) im guessing its a 16 bit grafix card thats in this thing right now but I don't know if its ATI or nVidia or some other compony.

BTW, I'm pretty sure the chip in that machine is an ATI Rage Pro.
