Hi Filos,
It is possible to change an Ultra into a GT if you need working DVI by changing resistors on the back of the board or hexing the GT rom. However, generally the 6800 is not a good card with the MDD, which we think may be due to some incompatability with the Northbridge chipset. The problems happen when changing resolutions, this tends to crash the computer. This can happen in games when switching between screens, opening the game or saving/exiting. You will notice due to many problems with 6800's I have a warning on aquamac advising against the MDD WITH THIS CARD. Fortunately I have tried a number(4) MDD's with the 7800 GS & this seems to work OK. Both FW800's & 400's.
I would suggest a different card with the MDD.

Filos, Do you have a picture of the card. 7800 GS needs the rom chip changing for a 128 type. Let me see a picture of the card & I will tell you if I think it can be flashed. Is this your card?

Hi Filos,
Where are you situated, if you are near the US, RUBY TUESDAY at strangedogs.com will flash this card for you or if you are in Europe, GOTOH at strangedogs will look after you. This card is great in an MDD. The rom is not freely available as a lot of work & money goes into creating the roms that drive these cards. Also the card needs Hardware mods, but if you are looking for the fastest MDD card, look no further.
