got my new nvidia 285 yesterday
installed last evening.
confirmed 10.5.7 update
*upon boot mac pro crashes and does so each time booted
reset pram and smc memory
check for updates - none
re-installed 8800gt - boots fine
check operation in boot camp using alt upon boot - runs great
removed all HDD's and installed single new drive
loaded osx 10.5.0 from retail leopard disc
can load with 285 installed as there are no drivers on disc
installed ati x1900xt and performed load - fresh load with x1900xt works great
updated new load to 10.5.7
removed x1900xt and installed 285 - no display
called evga and they state that the card is defective
i responded "only defective in osx" he said humm... but did an rma anyway
anyone have any thoughts? would rather not return my brand new card if it's not the cards fault.
