Chrys,

No worries.  The Firewire card (Apple/Solectron) in my 9600 isn't recognized
by ASP either, but works great all the same.  My OWC Elite Firewire drive
runs nice and fast.  Running OS 9.1, FW Enabler & Support, v 2.8.4 (from OS
9.2.1 updater).

FWIW, ASP can't see the PCI Firewire card in my B&W G3 either (same OS and
extension setup as above).  I think it might be a little nearsighted when it
comes to PCI Firewire.  YMMV.

Hey all,

Has anyone had any problems installing a firewire card in a 9600/200?
I've bought two of them already, and nothing . . . Apple System Profiler
sees a card there, but cannot report the card type or the card rom #. I
tried switching PCI slots, still nothing. Even pulled the USB card and
used the slot it resided in. Neither card I bought came with a driver,
but as I understand, they don't need one. The first card came fom New
Egg, so that might be questionable, but the second card came from OWC,
which explicitly states that it works on any PCI Mac with 8.6 or higher.
I'm running OS 9.1, and  Firewire Authoring Support v1.1, Firewire
Enabler v2.8.2, & Firewire Support v2.8.2 extension are all enabled. Any
insight would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
