I have a 400 Mhz Gigabit G4. When I bought it (used) I put a PCI ATI
Radeon 7000 video card in it. I left the 16 mb AGP card that came with
the system in it, although it is not being used. I haven't had any
problems with the system until now. I installed a 1 Ghz Sonnet Encore
card last weekend, and I have been having a lot of trouble keeping this
thing up and running. I keep having apps. lock up, kernel panics etc.
I am wondering if there might be a conflict with the CPU dealing with
the 2 video cards in the system. Could that be the case? Should I
pull the AGP card and leave that part of the case open until can
afford a good AGP card?
BTW, I am running OS 10.3.5 with 1 Gb of RAM.
Thanks--
Kevin
