bptba93 Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 Does anybody know of a USB Adapter that works with Tiger? I have but on the system requirements it's saying it needs a B&W G3 or higher but I have a Beige G3. Also I would prefer it to be dirt cheap.

The Masked Muchacho Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 every PCI USB card i have tried has worked ok in tiger, via chipset USB2.0 cards have always caused trouble though with devices that need alot of power from the USB bus for me. right now im using a belkin 2 port usb 1 card and it works fine in both OS9 and X. AFAIK there is a standard for usb 1 that means any card should work with a generic driver, no idea if its that simple though. there is a short list of compatible cards here http://support.clubmac.com/display.asp?r=476 i think anything with the NEC D720101GJ Chipset will work ok as a usb 2.0 card, go for one of these if you can. or get this card with USB2.0 firewire and gigabit ethernet in one http://www.geeks.com/details.asp?invtid=10...00A&cat=NET Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Masked Muchacho Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 i dont like the look of that one, its the same as the one i have that doesnt work too well (same layout and same chip) i had a quick search and found this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16815104216 looks like a better option to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
