:ROFLMAO: No as i said the one marked as a G4 came in a bundle of Mac OS CD's I bought, I wasn't expecting it to be there but at the time I didn't have a computer for it to test with.
The G3 400/512k came with my Performa 5400/180
This G4? 400/1MB is in my Powermac 5500/275 which is actually...
Yep and so does Metronome
Oh forgot to mention I tried that G4 enabler its in the sonnet installer if you select custom install and there was no change so defo a G3
Little update from me
Here is pictures of the 2 cards I have side by side
I did notice the serial number on both starts BG3 so maybe the wrong sticker was stuck on it?
the major difference I see is the component on one side (Capacitors I believe) and the Xilinx chip has a different version...
It is the 7200 G3 400/1M, I'm terrible when it comes to Amigas, I have a few, the others have the Apocalypse cards which they managed to get working with the Amiga because of how hard the sonnets are to acquire. Now we struggle to find the RAMIX PCIPMC carrier boards to use the Apocalypse cards...
OK well thanks for your help, as you know I'm new to classic mac so its a big learning curve for me.
I'm primarily an Amiga User but I'm expanding my retro, I now have a variety of computers and consoles just need a bigger man cave!
I seen in one of your other post in another thread that you...
When I look into it tomorrow I'll take it out again and put it side by side with the other and upload the pictures here. (Having a drink tonight so no touching "Retro" when drinking :LOL:)
It does intrigue me that the Manual for these mentions the Sonnet G4 enabler 9 which to me will make the...
I know this thread is a bit old but I feel the title corresponds to my question ref sonnet drivers
Many moons ago I bought a box of various Mac OS CDs and in the box was a Sonnet Crescendo L2 processor card which at the time I could not use due to not having a compatible machine so I put it in...
I get what you saying but nothing has changed after applying the patch, should I not see 3 more PCI devices available in my system info I added a screen shot earlier ref this
Apologies if I'm on the wrong thread but I thought this thread was about getting unsupported Combo PCI cards to see past the PCI bridge which is stated in Post 1 of this thread?
I was hoping the ethernet driver would be the same has the one on the current ethernet card I use because the IC on both cards are the same number
I've not gone any further because I thought I would see more PCI devices when I added the patch
All that seems to have happened is my PCI bridge...
Found out what my issue was I now tried an older version of stuffit expander 4.0.2 and it unpacked Maczip correctly and it would let the drag and drop function work woohoo.
It extracted and it lets me install the patch
However I still get no change and looking through this thread I see...
I wasn't using stuffit to do the extraction I was just giving an example of what the Maczip isn't doing when I drag the zip file over to it to explain the difference I'm seeing. What's frustrating is I'm sure it just worked on my 5400 mobo Maczip that is not this patch.
I'm setting up my...
