Having trouble installing ADS USB PCI adapter (USBX-500)

I wanted to add a couple USB ports to my old Power Mac G4 (running OS X 10.4.11) and found an old ADS USBX-500 card laying around. I installed the card in my machine but it doesn't seem to be recognized. System Profiler doesn't seem to see the card. I plugged a mouse into one of the USB ports, but it doesn't seem to be getting power. Is there some driver needed to get this card to work? I saw some old Apple instructions about a driver for System 8.6 or later, but I also saw some other info that said Macs that had built-in USB ports didn't need any special drivers. I'd appreciate any info about how to get this card to work, or info that it won't work. Thanks.

Best bet is any card with a NEC PD720100 or PD720101 chipset. Stick with the NEC chip, and try NOT to use drivers, Tiger doesn't need the drivers.
All of these Cards are NEC chipset based

I use an IOGear GIC251U in my G4 & was plug 'n play.

  • Having trouble installing Arch Linux to USB key

    Hello,
    I have read the wiki article, but it doesn't answer my question. I am having trouble installing Arch to a USB key (8GB Sandisk Cruzer). I installled GRUB correctly, it booted, but the flash drive was write-protected. In the fstab file, I have the defaults and noatime flags in there. I have never experienced an error like this, and I don't know how to fix it. I have tried to reboot into the Arch CD and mounted the USB, but it just stalls and displays no output. Obviously, if I boot into my USB (you can still boot into it), and do "nano /etc/fstab", it says that I cannot write. In case you were wondering, I am using the root user. Thank you for all your help!
    EDIT: I have Syslinux, the kernel parameters is RW. If I run mount -o remount,rw /dev/sda1, it tells me something like:
    ata3.00: status: {DRDY ERR}
    ata3.00: error: {IDNF}
    end_request: I/O error, dev sda, sector 21
    Buffer I/o error on device sda1, logical block 0
    EXT4-fs error (device sda1): ext4_remount:4665: Abort forced by user
    I did NOT hit CTRL+C.

    I'm a nub, and I think I'll piggy back of aqua's post.  Perhaps we have the same problem
    I have an Asus UX31A with Xubuntu (with grub) currently installed.  I created the bootable USB as per the Arch Wiki UEFI bootable usb page.  I can boot into the main prompt where you can choose "Arch Linux Iso", "shell v1", "shell v2" and "Default prompt."
    Choosing the first option (to get to the the command prompt and begin installing) makes the screen flash once, then just hangs black.  Before the flash I think I see three text lines in the upper left corner, but they flash so fast I can't read them.
    Choosing either of the shell options presents the error:
    "Error loading \EFI\shellx64_v1.efi: Unsupported"  (replace "v1" with "v2" for the other option)
    Any thoughts?

  • I'm having trouble instaling a printer driver for my Canon MG5220. I downloaded the latest printer driver from the Canon website (10.67.1.0) and installed it on my Intel iMac. It said the installation was sucessful, but when I try to add a printer, no go.

    I'm having trouble instaling a printer driver for my Canon MG5220. I downloaded the latest printer driver from the Canon website (10.67.1.0) and installed it on my Intel iMac. It said the installation was sucessful, but when I try to add a printer, no go. The printer does'nt show up. I'm fairly new to the Mac, after switching from windows. I'm running Snow Leopard 10.6.8.

    Hold down the option key and select
     ▹ System Information...
    from the menu bar. In the window that opens, select
    Hardware ▹ USB
    from the list on the left. On the right you should now see a list of all connected USB devices, as well as some built-in components. Is the device shown?

  • Having trouble installing LG slim portable DVD player to my new MacBook Air?

    Having trouble installing LG slim portable DVD player to my new MacBook Air?

    No installation required. Just plug it in to a USB port and it should work. If it doesn't then either the drive is no good or the USB port has failed.
    The DVD drive will not show up on the desktop or in Finder unless you have a CD or DVD disc inserted in it. It will show in Disk Utility when it is connected to one of the USB ports.
    Could also be your Air is not supplying enough power to it from just one USB port. In that case you would need a Y USB cable that connects to 2 USB ports at the same time to supply the correct amount of power to the drive.

  • I am having trouble installing 6.9.2 on a W2K system.

    I am having trouble installing 6.9.2 on a W2K system. I tried using the same CD and installing on another W2K system and it installs o.k. This system will let me install LabView, TestStand, and Fieldpoint, but did not let me install Daq 6.9.2.

    I tried another CD writer, and this time the program started o.k. and did not stall. It went through the installation procedure without a problem. I went ahead and installed a PCI-6602 and a PCI-6035E, but when the machine booted up, it did not pick up the drivers for it. I tried to manually assign the drivers but found that the drivers were not even available. I went into Measurement Automation Explorer and the software explorer did not detect the NIDaq installed. I checked in the windows desktop and the NIdaq was also not found. Then I reinstalled NIDaq and noticed that when it says features being added nothing is listed as bein added. I go back to the previous page and check the folder to add support for 5.0 and then the next page tells me that sup
    port driver files for 5.0 will be added but nothing else.
    I ended up using the NIDaq 6.9.1 and everything installed without a glitch.
    You can reach me by phone 956-544-0342 X-2381 or x-2396 if you need more detailed explanations or clarifications on the existing conditions.

  • Having trouble installing Adobe Reader 8, know it's outdated, job requires it. System is Windows 7

    having trouble installing Adobe Reader 8, know it's outdated, job requires it. System is Windows 7 Home Premium. Thank you.

    You may see if there are solutions in this old thread: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3063830
    Although that combination isn't supported, many people have made it work.
    Why would a job require Reader 8? All older files are compatible with newer versions. Or at least they should be.

  • Having trouble installing Photoshop  Elements 13. [was: I wonder if somehow I might have went to Creative cloud because something crossed my screen, but I am not used to doing this so]

    I could really use Customer Service help. I received Photoshop Elements as a gift for Christmas...I waiting until i got a new laptop so that I could use that as i was having trouble with older computer. However, I am having trouble installing the software...I swear the dvd added the programs, and I saw them in files explorer i think, but then I cannot find or I was not even able to add the serial number to my knowledge, because it was blank...no keystrokes were shown...and i don't see the program anywhere...Could I have down something wrong and it is somewhere in the cloud?

    Thank you. That's what I first thought that I didn't need to do anything
    but install from the dvd drive. However after the agreement, it asks me to
    sign in at adobe. (Sorry, I'm a little tired of looking at this right
    now)...I'll try again tomorrow.
    There is no one that I see how to start using the program as I must sign
    in. However, I have never been able to get the number to your firm. Or get
    the correct number... I think I clicked on a learning tutorial or browsed
    Adobe's website to learn more, but got caught up in all the details.
    I never uninstalled virus protection to run it because I thought that it
    would ask. I'll try again tomorrow I am frustrated. Thank you for your
    patience. I appreciate it totally. It's really sad cause I really wanted to
    create. I have wanted this for a very long time and I can't believe how
    difficult this has been. It would be really nice to know what is really
    wrong. I must not be seeing something or I've done something.

  • Is anyone having trouble installing Adobe flash player on a MacBook Pro?

    Is anyone having trouble installing Adobe flash player on a MacBook Pro with OSX 10.7.5?

    Thanks for your help here is what I did so far!
    I have uninstalled Adobe and reinstalled it, I've tried restarting my browser, then my MacBook Pro without any success!
    When I click on the Apple in the upper left hand corner and open System Preferences I can see Adobe Flash Player on the bottom under the Other section.
    If I open Adobe up and check the version it tells me that I have the most recent version!
    I even uninstalled Adobe and installed the newest Beta version, but Adobe is still not working! If I check for the latest version it tells me that I do have the latest beta version, but it still doesn't work!
    If the person who made the video used any other video player it works!
    Their player, plays the video without a problem!

    Hey robr72339266,
    With a single user license, you can install Acrobat on maximum two computers, say, your laptop at work and desktop at office.
    But, you cannot use Acrobat on both the machines simultaneously.
    You will first need to deactivate Acrobat from the old machine, then install and activate the software on the new OS with the same serial key.
    Please Contact | Adobe to seek help on the same.
    Regards,

    To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
