B&W = Blue&White
Verry interesting. I might try the same on my 6360 (once i get a replacement CDROM).
BTW, what does B&W mean?

This tends to happen with 4 port USB cards in older PCI macs. Your best bet is to find a 2 port USB 1.1 card (OS 9 does not support USB 2) and avoid any card that says it requires a G3 or B&W mac. I have had a lot of luck with SIIG USB 1.1 two port cards in my StarMax and PM 9600.
Re: USB Card in 5500
Thanks to suggestions from listers, I installed the PCI USB card first and then did a clean install of 9.1 to preserve my old SF. The USB related extensions appeared in the new SF. I copied these across, reblessed the old system, rebooted and USB was live ...
Unfortunately only one of the 4 ports on the USB card is active but with a hub I can run several devices.
Its not that important but can anyone think why only 1 of the ports works? Apple System Profiler sees 4 PCI ports (All called A1 USB card) and 4 USB channels (All called USB 0 1.4.6)
