G4 Hackintosh Update

Everything's been going okay with the G4 Hackintosh. It's in the living room connected to the 55" HD LCD Samsung TV. It's not getting that much use because the nephews are always on the 360. Which red ringed and was replaced with the Halo Reach Special Edition. Anyhow when I have the TV to myself, I watch twit.tv and my other media stuff.



I did change out the video card though. I pulled the 8800GT out as a backup if ever my 5770 gave out of my Mac Pro. I then replaced it with a Asus EN8400GS Silent. It was like $25 AR and very compatible. The forums all said that it worked out of the box and that I didn't need any kexts for it to work in a Hack. So far, I've not encounter any problems. I just plugged and played.
