More older Mac compatibility problems |
| Just like Joe, I read the box and thought this card would work with my Mac G3 All-In-One because the only requirement was OS X. It did work fine, with my printer and keyboard. Then I tried to use an external USB2 hard drive, and it was really slow (USB 1 speeds). Then IOGear told me my hardware isn't supported. I even have a G3! But they don't support Beige, only Blue & White. (All-in-one is like Beige.) Read carefully! ... we're supposed to check the website before buying any of their products? Well, no big deal, I probably won't buy any more of their products. ... |

Easy To Install and Use |
I Checked the Dell site and printed out Safety and Installation instructions (after checking the card's compatibility with my computer and XP system) The IOGEAR PCI card installed easily and was recognized right away. Noticed a definite increase in speed with the new USB 2 port. I'm ordering another one for my other PC. |

Warning to older Mac users!!! |
| Don't take the fact that it works with Mac OS 8.6 to mean that it will work with all Macs! After installing it in my PPC8500 with Mac OS 9.1 I found that although it was registering as installed it wouldn't function as a USB device. After calling tech support I learned that only Beige or Blue and White G3 and newer machines ran this card! This is not mentioned anywhere on the box!!! It only mentions that USB 2.0 works with OS X only. I'm never purchasing from Iogear again! |
