Hi guys, I wasn't sure where to put this so.

I installed a new video card the other day into my PowerMac G4 DA, it worked fine, then I rebooted and got a blank blue screen followed by a kernal panic.

I reinstalled OS X and removed the card replacing it with the stock card, I boot up first time, it's fine, restart again blue screen + kernal panic. (10.4.6)

I can safe boot, I can boot to the CD, but I still can't get it to boot by it self into regular OS X.

I've reinstalled 2 times, Disk Utility says my drive is fine, and my Permissions sre fine (except something that says Widget blah blah which I repair but it never seems to go away?)

System Profiler says my RAM Is OK, I've switched the sticks out a few times, thinking it may be a bad stick, but that hasn't helped either

I reset my PRAM and waited till I heard a 3rd chime, let it continue to boot, goes to grey screen, then blue now it's just black.



Can anyone help me? I really just want to get my computer back up and running. :(
