The problem is the 32Bit 33MHz PCI Bus. IIRC USB 2 will not run correctly unless it is over a 66MHz PCI Bus (B&W G3 or later).

Has anyone got usb 2 working on a Beige?

I have a usb2/firewire pci board. I bought a cheap Compact Flash Card reader
that is usb2 and it is flakey. It locks up the machine, or transfers a few
files, then locks up. Very odd.


I'm running 10.3.4 which should handle it fine.

So, is it a funkey pci card, a bum reader (PQI) or a problem with the 66 mzh
bus? (Firewire works fine, though.)


There is a firewire CF reader, which would work in 9 as well as X (there are no
usb 2 drivers for 9) but it is expensive.


Suggestions?
