I have a new G4 Dual running Jaguar with an adaptec USB 2 Connect card that will not run at USB 2 speeds. Even though it touts that it will on the box with any OS past 9.0.4. Upon further investigation with their website, no drivers are or ever have been available (of course). Though it is good to hear that Apple is wrong in their USB 2 standing and that others are making it work. It gives me some hope that I can get it going also. =]
And yes, I still have my UMAX box upgraded to the max as a G4 500. Though there are rarely any problems with it even though it was one of the first Dual 200s out of the factory 7 years ago and has the original 2 Gig drive! By the way, thanks for the info, I'll have to find a way to make it work. Rob. On Wednesday, January 1, 2003, at 08:37 PM, Robyn Lyons wrote: > This is not fully true.
