Hi,
I have a Belkin HUB (F5L009), which I use for printing and other USB connected equipment, hard disks etc. I found a driver on the belkin site but will not run, and said something about POWERPC, which I do not understand.
I am new to my Mini Mac, and am hoping I can continue to use the equipment I currently have.
Can you please help.
Regards
Steve Cadd

Macintosh computers and laptops now have two hardware platforms (different CPU).
One (the old platform) has PowerPC processor, the other (new platform) has Intel processor as used on a Windows PC.

If you are running Windows on your Mac Mini, that means it's got an Intel processor, so the PowerPC driver will not work on that.
The belkin USB hub doesn't need an external driver on a Windows PC as it's built-in to Windows, maybe your Mac Mini has it built-in too if it's running Windows?
