Title: Voodoo 4 4500 pci PC to Mac (bios flash) HELP!
Post by: Lespol on 08 December 2004, 05:27:49
I bought a V 4 4500 PCI of PC.. thinking about bringing up to date then the ROM with the BIOS for Mac (as already I did before with a V3 3000 successful), but I find the file BIOS in no website to discharge.  If someone can help me I thank him a lot of!  

Attention, the BIOS that need he is for the V4 4500 PCI of Mac only.

Do you need the bios to run the card in a PC or do you want to run the card in a MAC ? Just confused because you said mac bios.

In that case I cannot help.
I only have PC bioses and rumour has it that 3dfx cards are not flashable back to MAC, maybe because the mac bios is not correctly dumped.
You´ll have to buy a V4 that still has its original mac bios.

Maybe you can extract the mac bios from the last 3dfx drivers (for Mac) editing the  3dfx control panel (using ResEdit or an other tool)
