| Posted by: coius on 2007-08-22 18:15:35 PC Compatible Card. It allows you to run Dos on an older machine (under OS 8.5) and takes a DIMM slow specifically for the P1. Most likely a Pentium 166. It's the 7" version. I have the 12" version but nothing to connect it to. Anyways, You *MUST* use the same ram that goes in the machine (not like PC-66/100/133) as normal PC ram won't work. Google PC Compatibility card for mac. Anyways, the Mach 64 was the video chip, the SiS is the sound chip The white thing is a connector for systems that have internal ports for it (like the AIO machines). The thing does NOT work with Beige G3s, nor does it work with any G4s. Sorry. Like I said, google that, and you will get he PC Card tools for it, and the drivers. It's good for machines like the 7200 or even a 9600 (better bet!) max it out with 32MB (sometimes 64, it depends on the revision) and get that sucker running!!. BTW, i couldn't tell by the pictures accurately, what is the length of the card? that will help me tell the CPU speed, i actually think the 7" topped at 90Mhz, and the 12" was the 166. did you get any cables with it? Oh, and to answer your question, no, it won't work w/ the G4 | |
| Posted by: bluekatt on 2007-08-22 18:29:38 i knew what it was just not exactly what it is im a metric user the card is 17 cm long i take it the card is able to run windows 95 as well ? it has ram installed already no idea what kind yet so now the hunt is on for a pre G3 mac hopefully with a G3 card in it i have the cable with the internal ports connectors with some luck its a p1 166 and 32 mb ram not too shabby for 20 | |
| Posted by: Bunsen on 2007-08-22 18:52:42 There was a PC card with a K6/466 on it, but it was made by Orange, not Apple. | |
| Posted by: bluekatt on 2007-08-22 19:02:15 seller said it was an orange micro instead i get the apple one maybe il get rid off it anybody interested ? | |
| Posted by: defor on 2007-08-28 11:49:01 you happen to have the internal interconnect cable? if so, i'm interested. | |
| Posted by: bluekatt on 2007-08-28 17:39:10 you mean that little ribbon cable that goes in the white connector and ends in a small card with two prongs so to speak ? | |
| Posted by: Bunsen on 2007-08-29 02:18:50 I'd contact the seller and tell him he sent the wrong card. If he actually has an Orange Micro K-466 and simply sent you the wrong package, then you should get the right one. It's a much better card. | |
