    Hi all,
    Totally new to the world of Apple mac, thought I would start out gently, I bought an Apple G5 powerpc, dual core 2 GHz running OS X 10.5.8.
    It has 750 GB of hard drives, 8 GB of DDR2 SDRAM.
    Has wireless and bluetooth capability.
    Came with a monitor, and genuine apple keyboard and mouse.
    All for £200 so well pleased.

    Now then I would like to upgrade the current graphics card which is the rather lowly Nvidia 6600LE with 128MB VRAM.
    That is now were I have found the minefield, I have a Nvidia 7800GT 256MB PCIe card, it cmae from a PC and need to get it flashed over to work on the Mac.
    This is a little beyond my skill level, can anyone help with this.

    Fingers crossed.

    Robbiebox.
