It's the driver on the link mentioned in the posting below. You can find all possible drivers on http://www.macdrivermuseum.net/disk.shtml The one I used is the first Apple driver mentioned (5.3.1, 60K file). I didn't use the installer file 5.3.2 (460K file). Probably the sunrise driver, which can also be downloaded from that page, is a good solution too... ///E-Synthesist --- In emulatorII-list@yahoogroups.com, Mike de Vries <mrjdevries@...> wrote: > > can you please post a link to this driver?
