I ask all w/ owner of Millennium cards for Macs to look at their
Flash chip markings that starts w/ 28... or 29... for example:
28c256, 29c512 or 29010 etc. It's small retangular chip above the
chipset bit to the left.
Do this same for the Millennium II also because I wanted to know this
details so I can come prepared when I find a used Millennium II card
pc version and convert that too for Mac.
Thanks!
I suspect mine's flash chip is too small for this conversion. If
true, I can find larger one off the junker boards and use that and
try again.
Cheers,
Jason (Wizard)
