My PT Pro has a Sonnet G3 card in it as well replacing the original 604s. Never attempted OS X; I’ve got G4s for that. It works just fine and dandy with the ATA and G3 at the same time, though.

Could be your card. My card is exactly that: A Sonnet Tempo ATA-133. I put it in as a new old stock card never opened about a year ago, and it has worked perfectly on my PT Pro, which is essentially a 9500.

Well I don't know much about the cards, but as for the icons, non-HD equipped models were able to be equipped with two internal 1.4 drives, and that is what the Icons 130 and 131 are used to represent in the system.

Now THIS looks like fun. Also looks like it would be at home on a 68000 based compact.

Indeed it is. This is what happens when you have brain farts when you are otherwise occupied mentally by other things. It’s an ATA 133 card.

Here's the results:

I was pretty sure he said he did this in 6.0.8, 7.1, and 7.5.5…which does indeed make this vexing.

I can get some numbers, but when I tested it vs. BlueSCSI on the internal fast SCSI on the PTPro (10 MB/sec), it was at least four times faster read and write. Maybe not 166, but a lot better.

Totally illogical thing id try if it was me: unplug your RAM card, start into 6.0.8, and see if it works. If it does, there’s some issue with the card or the RAM on it…or an intermittent connection.

Simpler for the IDE setup would be an IDE to SD adapter. Works perfectly for me in my PT Pro with an ATA/166 card without any issue at all. No real need for an SSD in these.

Certainly possible if you had access to beta versions!

Yes, regardless of what machine you play on, the game window is always the same size. It would have been pretty cheap had it been otherwise. Now, with a larger screen, you likely could have had the overview map AND the game window open simultaneously without one blocking the other...that may be...

The ONLY one I have is the one that matches the B&W G3…always thought the smoked gray one was cool.
