    I’m trying to pension off my cinewave and replace it with an Io.

    So I’ve run the CW uninstaller and removed the card but the only way I can get my cinema display to work is with the CW card installed and the breakout box attached.

    I’ve tried zapping the PRAM, booting in safe mode and starting from the CD. Without the CW it boots but no display, put the card back and the display works fine.

    Can anyone shed any light on this one????

    Thanks

    Mac dual 2Ghz G5
    20in Cinema display
    2GB RAM
    OS 10.4.10 and 10.3.6 on 2 partitions

    It appears it’s the radeon 9600pro that can’t operate without the CW card in the machine. Took another 9600 from my other G5 and installed it – worked fine (with no CW). So any idea how the 1st card could become ‘addicted’ to the cinewave? and is there a way to reset it?

    Thanks
