steffensen Posted October 17, 2007 Author Share Posted October 17, 2007 Yes i have the original PCI version, as i wouldnt trust audio thru USB. I have installed the audiophile OS X driver, and it installs fine, but OS X cant find my PCI card it seems. From reading the forum this is a old issue, and im just curious if there were any success on the matter. Perhaps im forced to use the USB version after all... wich i really cant afford to atm.

Trauma! Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 The real question is : Did succed in mounting other PCI cards. Maybe your pci bus isn't working?

peach-os Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 as long as you are using a soundcard with only 2 IO´s, usb shouldn´t be a problem. multichannel interfaces with usb could be a mess with older hardware. for multichannel I would prefer firewire. i´ve read that some rme pci-e are working on hackintosh as well.

minnie Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 No, I don't think anyone has gotten it to work. Me included. Commiserations Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/66773-audiophile-2496/#findComment-473771 Share on other sites More sharing options...
steffensen Posted October 18, 2007 Author Share Posted October 18, 2007 Well, ill start save up for a USB version then, hopefully during this time someone will get it to work. As i would prefer using it as a PCI. Annoying that this is the only thing missing now..

ginovantuno Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 Hi all! I have an Audiophile 2496 PCI card, it never worked under Tiger. In M-AUDIO website there are drivers for PPC only. They install good, but in the control panel there is no audio card. Has anyone hacked/rewrite these drivers for Intel?

Guest oguz286 Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 Hello, What i dont understand is that other pci devices seem to work (correct me if i'm mistaken) and there are drivers on the M-Audio site (PPC and non-PPC) so the non PPC should work, but it doesn't. What are the non-PPC drivers for then? There is no PCIe Audiophile 2496 so it must be for the PCI version. But if the PCI-bus is working in osx then why doesn't it work? Can someone enlighten us?

johnnytluxury Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 To clear up confusion, the drivers on M-audios site for 24/96 pci ARE ppc ONLY. They do NOT make drivers for intel macs for 24/96. The reason is that the Intel macs have PCIe slots, only ppc macs have PCI slots. To make drivers for hackintoshes supports, well, crime, in sorts. Your options? Ebay.
