    thanks for the help

    a big thank you is in order. one small note. it may be wise to change "AGP" to "PCI-E". i ran into some brief trouble by just deleting the line as well as changing it simply to "PCI".

    This isn't working for me. I've gone into Contents>Infoplist via Omnioutliner and changed AGP to PCI-E and saved the new file. However, afterwards when I re-open Infoplist the setting has retutned to "AGP." Has anyone else encountered this? Any solutions? Help!

    Thanks for the great forum, by the way.

    I don't think omnioutliner is a appropriate editor - try TextEdit or TextWrangler

    ...and you need to change it to "PCI", not "PCI-E".

    I know you have PCI-E slots, but "PCI-E" is an invalid entry. It's either "AGP" or "PCI". You want "PCI".

    Thanks Ora, I'm trying to use textedit, but whenever I click the info.plist file it is automatically opened in Omnioutliner. Do you know how I can switch it to textedit? Thanks very much for your help. BTW, I'm running 10.4.11.

    Thanks El Diablo, I will do so. Also, do you know how I can resolve the problem described in the above post? (info.plist file opens automatically in omnioutliner, which isn't working--I'm trying to use textedit instead but am having difficulty figuring out how. Much thanks.

    Simply drag the plist file onto the TextEdit icon, or, alternatively, open TextEdit, then select "File > Open" and open the plist file through the "Open File" dialog.

    It worked! I opened the info.plist in textedit, performed a Find for "AGP", changed it to PCI, then saved and closed. AGP Graphics card message is gone, FCP up and running fine. Thanks so much to all the contributors to this thread, with special thanks to ORA and Eldiabloconcaca.
