Hi Managers,

does anybody have any experience win an ATI (HP) RADEON 7500 PCI
graphics card (3X-PBXGG-AA) in a Digital Personal Workstation 500au?

I would like to upgrade this box to have 24 bit true color (Tru24
color :-) and connect a Sony SDM-81 via DVI-I. 3D support is not of
primary concern for me.

The DPW500au is not listed as an HP supporte system for this card, but
this might be as the DPW has been retired before the RADEON 7500 came
into Tru64 UNIX life.

On the other hand the DS10 options page
http://h18002.www1.hp.com/alphaserver/options/asds10/asds10_3x-pbxgg-aa.html
lists SRM version 6.4 as a prereq and my DPW has SRM 7.2-1.

Btw: Are SRM version numbers comparable between different Alpha based
systems or has each system (family) its own SRM version numbering?

Thanks in advance of any hints, including other Tru64 supported cards
with Tru24 color and DVI-I output.

Sincerely

        \franz
