all G4's (besides the mini G4 and iMac G4 and laptops) are called PowerMac G4
what i was asking was, is it a Yikes G4, Sawtooth G4, Gigabit ethernet G4, Digital Audio G4, Quicksilver G4, Mirror Drive Door G4.
i am thinking that its either a gigabit ethernet G4 or a Digital Audio G4 466 or 533. since those models could be configured with a rage 128 pro that had the VGA and ADC on it.
so the reason you say it wont work on your Mac is cause it has a rage 128 pro in it, its a rather simple thing to fix ( if you have the money) is to look for a official Apple shipped Nvidia Geforce2 MX, Geforce4 MX, Geforce4 Ti that has ADC on it, or a ATI Radeon 7500 (or above, sorry cant remember the models that had a ADC port on them).
the flashed PC to Mac of the above models of video cards (that has DVI) will be of no use unless you get a DVI to ADC adapter (but that depends if the DVI output works on the flashed card).
if its a Gigabit ethernet G4 it will only have a AGP 2x slot which will limit you in the video cards you can use ( can only use up to the Geforce 6200, and a ATI Radeon 9800 Pro). if its a Digital Audio G4 it will use up to a Geforce 7800 GS (or GTX or GT) and a Radeon 9800 Pro (and maybe higher)
but that depends if you want to buy a video card for it ( you will have to know what model of G4 it is). or sell the monitor and find the 15" model.
if i remember correctly there was someone selling a few Apple shipped video cards that could drive that monitor on the trading post here. i am not sure if he still has them or not. you will have to PM macsane and ask him if he has a AGP Nvidia Geforce2 MX, or a AGP card with 32mb vram that has VGA and ADC on it. i have bought a few things from him and he is a good friend, and a person of his word. it will just depend on if your located in the USA or not.
