Aren't there tools that allow you to overwrite the video bios for a vanilla ATI card with a Mac specific one? IIRC, that's the only difference between cards released for PPC macs and their generic PC counterparts.

256MB cards are flashable (mine's a Sapphire 256MB Radeon 9200), but like I mentioned in the last post MorphOS and OSX only use the first 128MB.


Same story in OS4.1. Only half of my 256MB 9200's RAM is recognised.
