That's an ethernet card, with a socket for a FPU. The 10baseT is nice because it will plug into a semi-modern HUB. Drivers are here: https://vintageapple.org/macdrivers/network.shtml $90 is pretty high, especially if you can't test it. You can still get new old stock ones made by other...

I have bought crossovers from this seller: https://www.ebay.com/itm/371981646916 The wiring is described in the listing, is how I knew it would work.

I have a bombed board, I can check and if the RAM is not affected I could send it to you.

RTL8139 should work with 8.1: http://macintoshgarden.org/apps/realtek-ethernet-pci-card-drivers-rtl8100blrtl8100clrtl8101lrtl8139cl-rtl8139clrtl8139dlrtl8100

CommSlot II ethernet, if the machine has PCI. They are fairly rare by this point.

Looks like you mean 550-667

I have a 667, but it's a Radeon 7500. There were two 667s :)

That would be a hardware issue :( Remove the modules, clean them, reseat them.

16 MB!? Those are rookie numbers! ::looks in memory drawer::

OS choice on that machine is really just a matter of taste. It’ll handle 7.5-8.6 just fine. I’d only put 9 on there if you need USB, FireWire, or OpenGL.

10.2 kernel panics for me, too, with an RHC hard card and the 512 k firmware. Also B&W rev A. I could try it in a G4 I suppose. Or try the generic SiI-3112s. 8.6 works fine.

Booting from FireWire would not, unfortunately, tell you whether the motherboard IDE works.

If it works in his Pismo, and not in yours, that means something is wrong with the motherboard :( I'd still try a different IDE device to be sure.

I know mSATA to IDE adapters do not work in my slightly-older-than-a-Pismo B&W G3. I would try a different SSD.

My CF-IDE only has two screw holes, so I just put a couple zip ties around the bracket arms like this. "Less than ideal", I concede, but the ties hold one end on and the IDE cable holds the other. If flops around a little when I move it but, the broken plastic in that machine flops around more :)

There's a plastic bracket that holds the hard drive in. Remove the hard drive, wire tie the IDE adapter to the bracket, and stick it back in. That's what I did in the 640 CD.

They make short 4-pin power cable extensions. Easier than messing with the wiring harness IMO.

Is your CD-ROM dead?

Yes, they’re the same pin out.
