Our card reader we bought from AP does not work on the G3 at all.

We have an Adaptec SCSI card, but the only thing I can get to work on it are
the NC2000e bodies.

I had to keep the card reader on the old Quadra.

For some odd reason, the card reader worked on the G3 for about a month,
quit, we sent it into the shop, they said nothing was wrong, it still
doesn't work on the G3 but is fine on the Quadra. Weird.

I figured it was the virtual memory, turned that off, but still no card
reader. SCSI Probe software finds the card reader, but Photoshop/NC2000e
plug-in  cannot.

Our computer tech guy swears up and down it's the new Mac OS that's on the
G3s. For awhile, the camera bodies weren't even working properly on the G3
with virtual memory turned on. For the last month, though, no problems
having virtual memory turned on and acquiring from the cameras. I've
acquired as many as 62 pics at once with no memory problems. I have
Photoshop hyped up to use most of the 64 MB RAM, besides what the system
(Finder) needs.

If anyone has any suggestions on how to get the card reader to work, let me
know. Yes, I checked the SCSI chain cables and the SCSI ID nums.
