Usb 2 pci card - not working!

I have a G4 400 MHz with Memory of 1.12 GB and a Bus Speed of 100 MHz.
I recently added a hard drive without problem, and a pci card. This pci card states on the box "compatable with mac osx". However, I have bought an EYE TV stick (for digital channels) which does nothing when loaded in the port. If I test the usb port with an ipod, the ipod charges but does not load on screen. I'm guessing the card is not loading to 2.0 usb speeds, but why?
Very frustrating. Main reason for adding a card was to get the EYE device to work.
Any ideas?

Tazjuliet, welcome, it is always good practice to reset the PMU when ever hardware is installed or disconnected. Follow the procedure below, post if the issue is not resolved.

  • Wireless pci card - not working under OS 9

    Hello everyone,
    I very rarely post on OS 9 sub board, but I have one quick question. First off, my mac is a powerful(to me it is!) 2003 MDD dual 1.25(last before G5) and has 2GB memory with 2GB L3 cache per processor.
    Now thats out of the way. I would like to know if the Belkin F5D7000 card(wireless-G 802.11g) supports working under OS 9.2.2? If Belkin does not have a driver for it, is there a generic driver I can install which would allow my wireless card to work under OS 9.2.2? Yes, I have the FW400 based system, however I might consider going with the FW800, but I would like to know really what the big differences are between the FW400 and FW800 machines?
    I know the FW800 has ONE FW800 port, has a slot to support AIRPORT EXTREME card(though my machine has a PCI Belkin F5D7000 wireless-G airport extreme card). It also has support for bluetooth which I wouldn't really use anyway since I have no device to make use of bluetooth.
    So, my question really is, is there a way to get the wireless card to be recognized under OS 9.2.2 even though Belkin does not have a driver for it? I really would like to use OS 9.2.2 sometimes, but its useless to me if I can't get on the i-net, and regular ethernet is NOT AN OPTION since where I live is only wireless internet.
    Ideas? Suggestions?

    Hi,
    A ethernet to wifi bridge is connected to your computer via the ethernet port.
    ex: http://www.macsense.com/product/networking/wua800-1.html
    So there is no need for driver in the OS since it's using the ethernet port like connected via a wire. It's the box that convert it to a wifi signal. You could even use this for OS X, Windows or Linux etc...
    Many manufacturers make this kind of device.

  • Why would a PCI card not work in a similar G4?

    Why would an Audio Interface PCI card work in one Mac G4, but not in a newer, similar computer?
    My Sonorus STUDI/O audio interface card has been working great in my G4 450 (AGP), through various MacOS versions, now in OS 9.2.2, using LOGIC Pro 6 recording software.
    Putting the card in a Power Mac G4 Dual 1.25 Ghz (MDD Mirror Drive Door), the card is recognized by Apple System Profiler, but Logic abruptly quits without explanation as soon as it starts up and tries to acknowledge and integrate the card.
    Throwing away Logic’s Preferences will let me successfully start up Logic, and choosing the basic MacAV as the audio engine will work just fine (so it’s not the application itself that’s broken). But if I specify the STUDI/O, as soon as I relaunch Logic to activate that choice, the program just quits without explanation again.
    Same system (OS 9.2.2) as in the G4 450 (except that the Mirror Drive’s OS 9 was a slightly newer, machine-specific build).
    No special drivers needed, as Logic supports the card directly.
    I tried all available PCI slots, with no difference.
    So why would a PCI card suddenly not work at all in a newer, but comparable Mac? Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Peter
    Additional bit: The STUDI/O card is not supported in OS X, and Sonorus has closed its doors. So there's no help forthcoming from that direction. But in OS 9, everything should be good to go. Could a somewhat newer, faster computer like the Dual 1.25 really have that much of a detrimental impact on a PCI card?

    Tried using different domain name servers?
    Flushing DNS cache?
    Turning off proxy?
    You would find similiar issues over on Safari, Snow Leopad forum, and post to the MacBook Pro area instead.

  • [Athlon64] k8n neo2 pci cards not working, missing onboard lan + firewire from bios

    So while after putting the htt to 2x in the bios trying to isolate the highest htt my new cpu couldd handle by board apparently died a few days ago. Resetting the cmos and removing everything didn't help. I ordered up a new board and a few other things. I took the neo2 out of my case today and decided to give it one more shot. Then i remembered that my psu (enermax 470w) had a loose connection on a ground in the 4-pin connector that i had a bunch of trouble when i put the system together last year. Anyways, i fandangled around with it,plugged the motherboard back in and got everything up and running.Well, almost everything. My pci-wifi card and sound card weren''t showing up in windows. Thought it might have somethingto do with the onboard sound and lan since i had forgetten to disable it while getting the system up and running. Went into the bios and now the secondary lan and firewire were missing from the integrated peripherals menu where you enable/disable them. Like, their names aren't even there. Thought maybe flashing the bios backto an earlier version might help, i had just flashed to the newest for the new cpu. No luck there. Tried resetting the cmos after that, and moving around the pci cards, but no go. Anything else i might try?

  • MBP 2010 Mavericks SATA PCI Card not working

    Hello there,
    with Mountain Lion I had no problems with my LaCie SATA II ExpressCard 34, but after installing Mavericks this card is not working anymore.
    http://www.lacie.com/de/support/support_manifest.htm?id=10274
    I contacted Lacie Support, they do not have an actual driver.
    So I bought a Sonnett Tempo SATA Pro 6Gb ExpressCard/34 which should work with Mavericks.
    Unfortunately my MBP from 2010 does not. Sonnett offers a workaround http://www.sonnettech.com/support/kb/kb.php?cat=466&expand=_a3_a1_a2&action=b778 #b778
    After installing this I could use the card when I plugged it in AFTER systemstart. If the card is plugged in when the computer is started, the compter will not start at all. So, if I like to use an external drive as startvolume with this card, it is useless.
    Does anybody have the same problem and any solution?
    Will there be an update for Mavericks regarding this problem?
    Thanks for Feedback

    I can't offer any solutions, my MBP doesn't have an Expresscard slot, but it seems like no one else has answered so I thought I'd offer a suggestion. Contact Other World Computing at Macsales.com. They specialize in Mac hardware and may be able to supply you with a card that works.
    As for the "will there be an update" question, we're all just users here so we have no idea what Apple will do.

  • Creative WebCam Vista Plus on USB PCI Card (VIA VT 6212) on Windows ME - doesnt work !!

    PC turns off when the Vista Plus WebCam is connected to the USB port on my USB PCI Card
    I use a primitive Intel Celeron 300Mhz processor with 64MB RAM on an Intel 440BX-AT Chipset running on Window ME. I recently installed a USB PCI Card (based on the VIA VT 622 chipset) which is a 394/USB 2.0 Combo. The problem is my 'Creative WebCam Vista Plus' doesnt work with it.
    After I had installed the drivers on the 'Creative WebCam Vista Plus' CD - that is - without connecting the webcam to my USB PCI card the installation asks me to connect the webcam to the USB port and When I do that the PC just GOES OFF !
    It starts up only in SAFE MODE and each time I've got to restore my PC.
    How do I get the WebCam connected to my PC ?
    Thanks in advance

    9hours later and Ive given up. I cant get the Vista 64 Ultimate to work with the Audigy 2Nx usb sound card. Im very angry and very frustrated (not to mention very tired from the 2 late nights Ive spent trying to work it out). Im not a PC-noob, but am only 4days into my Vista ownership................... Im guessing now, after much research, that there will never be a driver that gets these units to work with Vista 64bit. thats pretty weak Creative. However, I dont want to use crappy onboard sound for my gaming.What is the suggestion?Should I be looking at returning this unit, and buying either the X-Fi Xtremegamer?Fatality Pro as?a highend device, or the X-Fi Xtremegamer for $00 less? Or should I be looking at another manufacturer. Would either of these x-fi gamers work with Vista 64bit Ultimate?suggestions please?

  • Upgrading the G3 /DT with USB PCI Card for Printer Connection

    I would like to connect a Brother MFC-9160 laser printer to one of my Beige G3 /DT with Macintosh OS 9.2.2 installed.
    There are two ways to do that: USB or Parallel. I don't know if Parallel adapters for Macintosh are available. This is the reason why I am favouring the solution of PCI USB upgrade.
    The problem is that the few USB adapters I saw on sale on various French Mac warehouses were all USB 2.0 compliant, and required a Power Macintosh G3 /BW.
    I suppose that a USB 2.0 compliant card is also de facto USB 1.1 compliant, but I am not sure. Besides the hardware issue, there is of course the problem of support on a Beige G3 for USB 1.1.
    Could you please elaborate on the hardware which would run on a Beige G3? I am open to any friendly advice
    Frederic W. Erk

    By the way I wonder if it would be possible to
    connect to the laser printer through electricity
    network. No cables, here because the building in 400
    years old and too large. Wireless, he he... Not even
    worth speaking about it....
    I'm not sure about what kind of electrical wiring you have available over there, or if these kind of products are compatible, but there are some options in the US for using the electrical outlets in a house to create a LAN network. With this kind of network you could use keep the printer on the B&W and turn on USB printer sharing. Printing from OS 9 on the G3 might not work with all printers. That kind of networking equipment is more costly than just adding a USB PCI card to the G3 to use the printer directly, but you might also be able to share a single high-speed internet connection that way. It all depends on what your needs are.
    Is this what you were asking about?

  • USB Hard Drives Not Working Properly?

    I have an MSI K9N Neo V2/V3? (msi-7369) motherboard with 2GB Ram and an Athlon 64 x2 4200+ processor.
    I have a strange USB Port problem! I have a 5 year old home built machine running Windows 7 32bit. Lately the USB ports on the front and back of the machine are not working properly with external hard drives? USB powered or mains powered. They are recognised and show all the folders but If I try to view or transfer anything it freezes the drive?
    The ports are working fine for USB sticks though?
    I have removed the USB controllers and let the system reinstall them again, but its no better?
    I would format the drive and reinstall windows but I have not backed-up all my videos I want and my system restore has been disabled?
    I have tried a new USB PCI card but the same happens?
    I have updated the bios and all updates with the MSI Live update program.
    Can anyone recommend anything to try before I start removing stuff?
    Someone told me to update my USB drivers but I can't find any?
    Any help appreciated

    I have formatted and installed Windows 7 64bit and USB's were working!!
    Updated and now they don't again?
    Its going out the window soon!!
    Could the firmware update play a part? Am I able to go back to the older firmware?

  • Iogear USB PCI Card

    Hello, after doing some searching here in the Apple Discussions, I bought an Iogear GIC251U USB PCI card to put in my Dual 1.8 GHz PowerPC G5. I made sure it had an NEC chip. Works fine until I put the it to sleep. It will not wake up and has to be forced shut down via power button. Any ideas? Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks,

    I usually start by looking at OWC and Sonnet brand, then check with AccelerateYourMac. You already have 10.4.x so that helps.

  • Suggest USB PCI card for PM 7200/120

    Hi
    I want to instal a USB PCI card in a 7200/120. It's running OS 8.6 with Apple USB Support 1.4.1 software. Also have Toast Titanium 5.2 with its Toast USB support extensions loaded. Also tried running OS 9.1 on alternative startup drive with same Apple USB Support 1.4.1 etc.
    I've installed a 5 port USB v2 (32-bit host interface compliant to PCI spec release 2.2 and backward compatible with USB 1.1) card from Laser (www.laserco.net). The packaging says it's compatible with Win 98/98SE/ME/2000/XP but no mention of Mac. The 7200 doesn't see the card installed in PCI slot (checking Apple System Profiler). Double-checked to make sure the PCI was securely seated in the slot, tried different slot etc.
    I also tried re-installing Apple USB Support v.1.2 on the OS 8.6 volume but still no good.
    I'm in Australia and wondered if anyone can recommend a USB card that actually works in the 7200?

    Claudio,
    Two years ago, this question was very common. Warnings were given about certain Belkin cards not working well. With the passage of time and the drop in price of newer used systems, few people spend money on upgrading older equipment. It can be done but the beige G3 is the minimum platform that most will work on. Here is a guide to Mac resources in Australia.
    http://www.tandb.com.au/buying/
    This site sells a wide array of older Mac products. They offer an interesting list of prior models that they still buy, including 7300 models and IIci models. The 7200 is not on their list of models that are in demand.
    http://resale.headgap.com/
    "TRADE-INS OR SELL YOUR OLD MAC
    Remember we pay wholesale prices. Many times when you are ready to upgrade your old system may not be worth much, especially to a dealer who is used to buying in quantity at wholesale prices and has the units shipped in bulk truck freight. Boxing and shipping your old system costs a few dollars. Here lately we have been having more trouble locating older systems people are still buying. We will begin offering trade-ins or to buy outright certain older systems. The following are on the list: PowerMac G4, iMac G4, QuickSilver G4, Blue & White (REV 2 Only), G3 Desktops, PowerMac 7300, Quadra or Centris 650, and Mac IICI's and SI's. The units need to be cosmetically in good condition and working (at least chiming). Trade in value will vary from the top wholesale price for extra clean, that exceed stock configurations and down for less that prime units. We are also purchasing good used Apple Desktop Bus Mouse II ADB Mice, working StyleWriters, and SCSI Zip Drives."
    Hope this helps. My experience with buying USB cards for Macs convinced me to only buy cards that are already installed in a working used Mac. The Mac costs $15 US and the card is free. I realize that your market is somewhat different. However, if it is hard to find a working card here, it will be even harder there.
    Take note, even Headgap does not want Rev. 1 Blue and White Macs. Avoid them if you have a choice.
    This company has iMacs for under $200 in Australia. That may be high and it may not be a current price.
    http://www.newwavesystems.com.au/pre-owned_imac.html
    They also show a PowerMac G4/400MHz for $150 Australian here:
    http://www.newwavesystems.com.au/pre-owned_powermac.html
    That would be money well spent compared to any upgrades to a 7200. Otherwise, find a recycler who knows a thing or two about Macs and wait for them to come across the right card for you.

  • Drivers for Belkin F5U220 USB PCI card

    I am trying to install Belkin F5U220 USB PCI card into my G4. There are no drivers on the CD or Belkin's website. After installation, I connection Apple mouse. The mouse indicator was lit. But does not work. Where can I get drivers for this PCI card ? I read several posts here that this card worked on many systems. Wondering how it worked... Appreciate any help.

    The drivers are built into the operating system.
    Does the card appear in your system profiler?
    When I plugged in my usb 2 card it just worked. From time to time I had to reset the pmu to get things reset properly but it has been 2 times in 2 years. (lots of 2's in my post, huh?)
    Apple seems to have removed the link to the reset of the pmu so I'll give a readers digest.
    Open the mac
    Touch the power supply case to ground yourself
    Remove the battery and check the voltage (3.6V)
    Press the pmu button (3/8"square box with a bb size button in the center). Hold it down for a 3 count. Don't press it more than one time or you will mess things up
    Replace the battery
    Restart the mac with the usb2 card in it.
    See if that helps

  • USB hub does not work!  Help

    I was attempting to install a KVM switch for my G4 and G5 that required me attaching my keyboard and mouse to the usb port on the back of the monitor.
    The USB hub does not work! Monitor cable has no bent pins, and works perfectly for video with all my Mac's, G4's, G5's. The problem is I have had this monitor awhile and never tried these ports so apple won't help.
    Anyone have any suggestions why these ports don't work and if there is a fix?
    Can any one recommend a KVM switch that supports ADC, and USB so I bypass this hub.
    Thanks

    Some USB 2.0 hardware works very well w/USB 3.0 & some don't.  Suggest that you contact the sound card manufacturer & ask them.  Perhaps they can recommend a work-a-round. 
    Another user posted about the same problem some weeks ago regarding a sound card. 

  • SB04100 Sound Blaster Card not working after computer rebuild

    =SB0400 Sound Blaster Card not working after computer rebuildZ I did a full disk format and reinstall for a friend on a Dimension 3000, running XP SP3. There is no sound at all. Speakers are good, tested on another system. Model number on the back of the sound card is SB0400, so I assume this is an older 24 bit PCI SoundBlaster card. Although I reinstalled all drivers from Dell, I found no drivers for this. The Creative site has no listing for this model.
    Computer does not seem to recognize the card. Have not opened the box yet but I assume if I were to remove and then reinstall the card it would be recognized (?) I then have to find an SB0400 driver.
    Does anyone know where I can find an SB0400 driver ? Does the strategy of pulling and reinstalling the card make sense ? (I have really avoided tampering with any of the hardware on this box -- since it is not mine.)

    Re: SB0400 Sound Blaster Card not working after computer rebuild? Thanks much for your response. Problem solved for now. I removed the board and then reinserted it, after which I was able to download the drivers directly. Some of my difficulty with this whole process has been ) I didn't know there was no working speaker in the computer and 2) I apparently misunderstood the BIOS settings for this. I re-set it up as an add-on board during the troubleshooting process. After loading the driver, I went back to the original setting (don't recall what it was but it was for integrated sound). The setting for integrated sound works fine, with external speakers and the new 24 bit driver. Still some noise (popping and static) but this board shares the bus with 2 other cards one of which is a wireless network card. May be a PCI latency issue but I'm reluctant to change that because the network card is a bit shaky anyway.
    Everything works for now -- I'll be glad to get this particular computer out of my house !

  • USB webcam microphone not working with Starcraft 2 voice chat

    =USB webcam microphone not working with Starcraft 2 voice chat?Windows 7, X-fi Fatalty Pro
    I have a webcam with ?a built in microphone (Ps3 eye). ?It is connected by USB. ?The drivers are the CL-Eye drivers; a third party driver set since Sony does not directly support the eye for PC.
    in the windows audio device management, the microphone appears as normal and is set as the default device. ?I can use the windows sound recorder to record me speaking just fine. ?However if I use any other applications it doesn't seem to work at all. ?I can select the device as the default recording device in Starcraft 2 as well as Teamspeak 3 but no sound is detected. ?The USB microphone does not show up as a selectable device in recording options in my Creative Control Panel. ?Disabling the default creative microphone does nothing.
    I think the problem is in that windows can directly detect the microphone and so software that uses the windows audio device manager works fine, but anything that talks directly with my sound card software does not properly detect the microphone. ?Basically, I can select the device as a default device but it does not work.
    Any thoughts on this or am I SOL and have to find myself a shiny new headset?

    I had the same problem. You need to check the device index of your USB mic.
    In my case. I'm on a Mac OSX 10.6 system. I had four devices cataloged. With the last one being the USB mic.
    Then set like so in your AS code audioPub.microphoneManager.micIndex = 3;
    Remember, that the indexing is 0 based.
    The sound framework make the assumption that the index is 0.
    Hope that helps.
