I have a 7300 with a Sonnet G3/400 processor card. I recently wanted to upgrade to OS X but I have a problem... I can only boot up if I have an Apple monitor connected to the onboard video port.

Although, I can boot up with both, the apple onboard video port and the ATI, I wish to boot up only from the ATI Radeon 7000 Mac edition.



HELP!!!! any suggestions? <img src="confused.gif" border="0">

    The latest version 2.2b9 (actually the previous version as well 2.2b7) of XPostfacto fixes this problem. My 7600 (Powerlogix G3 400 with ATI Radeon) works fine with nothing connected to the built-in video.



    Now if only there was an OSX driver for the built-in video input.

    I udadted my machine with Sonnet technology patch. Now ATI stated that until apple came out with a new version of OS X (10.1.5) the card would not kick in. Well now it does, but only when an apple monitor is connected to the onboard video port. Then trick is to get the ATI to work by itself.



    Thanx for the responses !!!!!!!!
