  • Leopard and ATI x1900xt video card

    The ATI x1900xt(revision 1) has been shown to be incompatible with Leopard on a number of Intel MacPro builds. Luckily, the Apple store is replacing my card with a new one, that supposedly works, free of charge. I was crashing and also had many artifacts on-screen. So before you go and get Leopard and FCP7 make sure that you are covered by Applecare if you have the ATI x1900xt video card.

    Just a heads up!
