Well, that's what the chip says on the card: ALI M5271. This is the COMPUSA branded card, SKU 306475. The other card that I tried to use, which also says OS X compatible is labeled the same way.
Do you think your hardware is permanently messed up or it's just a matter of reinstalling? Oh, I just read you're earlier post. You think it messed up your whole computer? Man does that not sound good. I hope that has not happened here. For those who suggest to format and reinstall, do you think I can do that just to the partition? Or do I need to do it to the whole drive? If so, that puts me in a tight spot of not having enough storage room to transfer the data, so I'll need to get another drive. I've asked this before but I'll try again: Can I install Panther in the partition that has more room which houses OS 9 and my documents without having to wipe out the data? Tried the reset-all but no luck. Will read some Apple documentation. -F On Monday, April 26, 2004, at 03:12PM, Peter da Silva <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >What chipset did your combo card have? > >I just got one with an ALI M5271 controller, and it seems to have screwed up >my Beige box too.
