[QUOTE="dtravis7, post: 837710, member: 8287"] Firstly, Every single USB External Powered USB Hub I have ever used on any of my Macs has worked fine. I have a 500Mhz G4 (Same model as yours but faster) and all my hubs work fine. 2 USB ports was still quite standard back when that machine was made. That is an OLD Mac. Also the ports are USB 1.1 like other older computers of that time period. Not all Internal PCI USB 2.0 cards are made to support OSX. I have had very good luck with this one Belkin 5 port PCI card here. This is the card I am using and it works 100%. Has the Mac OS symbol on the package.
