are you sure this was a MAC board because the ROM you posted is a PC ROM!

these are all the roms of rage 128 i could find 3 of them are for AGP and 2 for PCI

RAGE128 GL 1999-02-03 PN 113-51804-1 01 AGP BK1-0-11-VR001-001-001-011 (32KB) 29.5MHz
RAGE128 GL 1999-03-19 PN 113-51805-1 01 AGP BK1-0-11-VR001-001-001-011 (64KB) 16MB 29.5MHz Xpert128 (TVout)

RAGE128 GL 1999-06-21 PN 113-57403-1 02 PCI BK1-0-13-VR001-001-001-013 (36KB) 32MB 29.5MHz
RAGE128 GL 1999-04-07 PN 113-53008-1 00 PCI BK1-0-12-VR001-001-001-012 (64KB) 16MB 28.6MHz AIW (tv tuner)

any way the rom you posted is 57403 this rom does not show any post screen if used with MAC board
the only one that works but has the clock issue is 53008 and it belongs to All-in-wonder card (so you get all the unwanted
tv stuff devices when using its ROM), by modding the the dot clock frequency it must be good to go.

which ATI rage 128 do you have, can you post a picture of the board and the flashing process
did the flash process went without any issues!

Here are the photos. This was not the original bios. I tried an earlier uploaded bios but that only worked in Windows (when setting the Hz correctly). See earlier posts. Can't find the original bios atm but it was a MAC bios.

Tried it today but unfortunately there is no output at all. Flash was successful with ATI flash 1.6 (with -f option).

ok now the question is
which rom, allowed you to post but had the out of synch issue ?
the one you flashed before the moded roms, did it allow you to post or no ?
if the ROM you uploaded the "57403" showed you a post
here is a moded version of it

This version works great so far. Can see the boot screen, tried a couple of DOS games and Windows 98SE also works perfectly (3DMark 99).

Thanks!
