hey guys, first post here.
so i've got an old faithful titanium powerbook (no usb 2.0), and a new-fangled ipod video (usb 2.0 only). so i went out and got a usb 2.0/firewire pc card and downloaded the drivers for it. but now i'm running into a couple problems:
1) only one of the two usb 2.0 ports actually works
2) a lot of times, when i plug my ipod into the functioning usb 2.0 port, the screen will flicker and then the whole computer freezes. no cursor movement, no keyboard response, nothing.
here's the lowdown on what i have running, if it helps:
- powerbook g4 400mhz, 512mb ram
- mac os 10.3.9 (panther)
- "idotconnect" usb 2.0/firewire pcmcia card (2 usb ports, 2 firewire)
- VIA usb 2.0 drivers (vt6202, vt6212)
- 30gb ipod with video
software (os, itunes, ipod, pc card usb driver, etc) is updated. any ideas of what i can do? return the pc card and get a new one? recommendations?
thanks guys.
