    Any PCI-Express Mac machine (such as the MacPro) with several graphic cards (NVideo PCIE standard cards works very well).

    Remember that the NVIDIA cards for the Mac Pro don't support the DVI to video adapter so if you wan't to output video you need to buy scanconverters for each port or use dvi/vga output

    Mmm..... welcome to the club!

    There is not support for the DVI to s-video/composit apple adapter for the video cards used in the extra PCI slots. Tell me, Boris, Yves and I have been going around that issue for ages. And is impossible to contact the cards manofacturers about it.

    My idea was for Yves and Boris to contact Nvidea directly and tell them: Hey, you know what, we have a software that need up to 4 of your video cards to run just fine... but it would be good to have the drivers to support the Apple adapters as well so our costumers does not have to spend another grand in scan converters.

    I bed in less than a week they will have the drivers ready for such. AND Nvidia would be sooooo please in sponsor Modul8 as Roland is doing with Motion Dive Tokio with the difference that M8 has all the aspects to become an industry standard.

    I suspect that the issue is a hardware one, not just a driver update.
