Greetings all, well my mac seems to have died, while running, the screen just went blank, I did a hard shut down since it basically froze, could not use my mouse, and tried to boot up again, only to get a multi striped screen. I noticed this has happened while I was running parallels, with parallels tools trying to install.

I have a new amd raedon rx 460 card to install, but need some instructions, i was told to search, but I really need help, and need to get my mac up and running again straight away, I am taking classes that uses software on it, and I am going in toward the end of the term, and I need my machine up and running again, so many thanks for nay help on this.

So I have done internet searches, but they are all for different graphics cards, than the one I have.

What is preventing you from installing and testing it?
I do not have the right type of connector to connect from the ports to my monitor, I am waiting on an adapter. The card has displayport, HDMI, and DVI, but my monitor is mini displayport.
