  • Solved Question: Is Quartz Extreme Enabeled? Do I have Quartz Extreme enabled? I can view in Cover Flow in iTunes and use iPhoto and iMovie with no problems. What I don't get is the ripple effect when adding widgets and in my system profile Quartz Extreme is not mentioned under Displays. My graphics card is a Gigabyte Nvidia GEForce GT640.
  • Mac Tv Video Players & Editors. Add to Wishlist. App requirements: - Internet connection of-course (at least 5MBs).

IMPORTANT NOTES:

  • Seems that the new G4 Firmware 4.1.8 lets some GeForce 2 MX cards work WITH OUT flashing them, BUT only a few low resolutions in OS X
  • Does not work in pre-B&W G3s (to my knowledge)
  • All links on this page are direct downloads off my site, they wont go away unless lawyers get involved.
  • Geforce 4 cards require a hardware modification, which I know nothing about,. So good luck.
  • TwinView does not work! If you get it to, e-mail me
  • If PCI card doesn't work, try another slot
  • Different Flashers need different command line options, so just type 'nvflash' to get a list.
  • I have NO idea what the difference between the ROMs are

Quartz Extreme Required iMovie requires a graphic card that is compatible with Quartz extreme. One or more of your graphics cards does not support Quartz Extreme. I have never gotten this message before, and I have no idea on how to proceed so I can open iMovie. Launch Quartz Debug (in performance tools), select Enable Quartz 2D Extreme from the main menu and then Force Quit the Quatz Debug application to make the changes 'stick'. Apple has choosen not to enable Quartz 2D Extreme for a good reason and that is because it currently does not provide any significant performance advantage and in some cases. The 1.2 version of Quartz Extreme Check for Mac is available as a free download on our website. The actual developer of this free Mac application is Marc Liyanage. Quartz Extreme Check for Mac lies within System Tools, more precisely Benchmark. The most popular version of the program is 1.2.

The following cards are known to work with this method(Get Retail Cards, OEM and bulk cards have slow RAM [>5.5 ns], and might not work, possibly causing artifacts. See utility in D/L section for a fix):

Reported to work using/with these versions: If blank, I don't know.

Marble flooring pattern dwg. (you may need different ROMs or Flashers, see Download section. All instructions are for GeForce 2 MX, adjust for Radeon or GF 3.)

Requirements: (You don't NEED a second card, but they are very helpful for solving problems/issues)

  • Any Mac (B&W G3 or Better) with a PCI Slot or any AGP Mac for the GeForce card
  • An AGP or PCI nVidia GeForce 2 MX card (Regular MX, 400, and in some cases a 200) or GF3 (might need a different ROM, see download list) or ATI Radeon 8500

AND

  • A PC with a PCI video card and an AGP slot. (You don't need an extra card if you never want to convert it back to a PC card.)

OR

  • A PCI Mac video card (You don't need a second card if you are willing to do this blind by putting the flasher in the startup)

PC:

Read EVERY THING before you try!

Directions for a PC have (PC) in front of them, and Mac has (Mac).

1. (PC) Download this Compressed Floppy image. Use whatever to put it onto a floppy, I used Winimage.
(You may extract the contents of the NVFLASH Utilities OVER the files in the disk image, if so desired. If you find that one of these new versions are required for this process to work, please e-mail me. If you use 3.16, you will need to remove the '-m' in the command line of the batch files)
2. (Mac) Download nVidia 2.1.1 Drivers and extract them to the system DIR (MacOS 9, X drivers are built in)
3. (Mac) Shutdown, and pull out all the video card in that puppy.
4. (PC) Put a PCI video card in the PC and the GeForce Card in AGP slot.
5. (PC) Restart, Use the BIOS to set the primary video card to PCI and boot off the floppy.
6. (PC) The rest should be self explanatory. (Its just a bunch of batch files)
7. (PC) When the screen flashes and you get to a 'Selection' prompt, now's the time to: (next step)
8. (PC) Turn off the computer, and take out the GeForce.
9. (Mac) Put the GeForce card in the AGP slot and restart
*

If it does not work try:

  • Use another Flasher
  • Use -u switch on the flasher to force it not to make the subsystem ID match, especially for 'blind' flashing
  • Use -p switch on the flasher to force it not to make the VenID/DevID match, especially for 'blind' flashing
  • There might be an error about an invalid command line, in which case, you need to edit the '1.bat' and take out the '-m'.


*If you get an error about an EPROM miscompare, you probably used the wrong ROM file, make sure you use one appropriate to your card. Mac ROMS are larger than PC ROMS so the EPROM needs to be larger than it would need to be on a PC, so if your EPROM is too small, you may get an error. You may also wish to try . Some cards have Flash-Once so once they were flashed at the factory, it's permanent*

Mac:

1. Download Mac Flash Kit Stuffit file and extract
2. Do it in OS 9. (self-explanitory) (To do it blind, put the AppleScript in the startup folder and wait a while after it starts up and then restart)

There is a MacOS X Flasher available in the misc download section.
