Hi there! Been a while since I was here but I have an issue!

Got a Mac G4 and works fine, had it running properly on a mac screen a few days ago.

I now have it plugged via HDMI and convertor to TV Screen, from video you can see exactly what the issue is.. after boot screen no video! Any ideas?

I've tried the following:

Reset PRam
Checked Connections
Checked other screen (works fine)
Hard Reset
Soft Reboot

Please advise!
 
Your video shows that you have a PowerMac G5 (not G4)

You say that another screen works fine?
How is that other screen connected to your Mac?

Is there any difference if you use a DVI to VGA cable to your TV?

Hi there,

Sorry yes G5, and exactly the same connection, works fine :)
 
Do you get video when you do a Safe mode boot?
(Boot while holding Shift. You always get a login screen for a Safe boot.)
