Mac Pro 1.1, Mavericks and NVidia FX 4500 problem

-

folks, use here, if could.

few weeks ago, got used mac pro 1.1 in excellent shape. came 2 video cards, 1 of in system right , nvidia quadro fx 4500, 512 mb of memory. had ox-x 10.6.something installed, upgraded 10.7.5 without problem , running fine. intentions machine use photography, running aperture. @ moment, using imac (early 2009) task, mavericks 10.9.5 , aperture 3.5.1.

now, issue have 10.7.5 on mac pro, doesn't support aperture 3.5.1, every time copy aperture library imac mac pro, have rebuild it, in order usable aperture version have on mac pro. can frustrating, decided upgrade mac pro mavericks , see how go.

after reading several article on net, i've managed create bootable usb drive, used install mavericks 10.9.3 on new disk on mac pro.

unfortunately, appears 10.9.3, 8 mb recognized 512 mb nvidia card has. of course, little memory aperture refuses run.

tried install 10.9.5 on pro, again, works fine, except 8 mb of memory recognized. time aperture run, doesn't work correctly. doesn't show photo in main window, thumbnails in browser strip.

wondering if there solution problem, in other words, if possible convince system recognize 512 mb of video card memory.
 

did try updated nvidia webdrivers? these drivers aren't bundled osx , maybe have support video card. please take @ following topic:
