    Which video card do you have installed?

    If you have an NVIDIA video card, MorphOS will hang at a white screen.

    Hi Sabbate!
    Keep calm & MorphOS =D
    If your graphic cards are all AGP I guess there's no problem at all! As I've read on AmigaNews (I will post an answer there too ;-) ) you don't need a PCI-E video card (but... why a PCI-E?!? I hope you din't buy a late 2005 model... ) you need an AGP Mac Ati Radeon to start.
    Give an eye here:

    7.3 G5 has a 8X AGP slot so you shouldn't have any problem but check your G5 model anyway.
