1. Does the Mac boot up with the card installed and MoBo Video driving a second monitor?
2. Does the Mac boot with only that really nice Radius card installed?

3. If so, take a screen shot in either case, let's see if the issue is in the frame buffer(?) or the card's output over the cable.

4. What kind of VRAM is on the card? Got Pics?
On point 1, Yes it does.

On point 2, Yes it does.

On point 3, The screen captures in both instances came back displaying the GUI perfectly.

On point 4, The VRAM is soldered directly to the card. I can provide a picture of the card, but I am unsure which chips represent the VRAM.

1 other thing I noticed, during a subsequent boot one of the icons from the init parade displayed itself in the upper center of the screen (along with all sorts of other strange patterns.) In addition to the placement, the image was drawn as black and white. It appears that the card is not displaying color as well.
