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.

hey, m8,

i want to run a pc voodoo 4 pci in a mac g4:)

Rolo01 · 18 October 2009, 20:22:19

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.

OK, sad to hear, but thanks anyway:)

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)
