But it does not work even if I use only two cables, one on the internal
and one on the externel wide connector! Using both internal connectors
( one 50 pin and one 68 pin ) it works fine. I didn't have tested
the combination internal 50 pin connector / external 68 pin connector
due to lack of time.
But it looks like a problem with the adapter because a friend of mine
has also problems with an NT/Intel system when using both 68 pin connectors.

Thanks to all
