484906 2006-09-15 05:55:00 I've got a small problem. It involves a case, card reader, front USB ports and PCI card. Namely, the case comes with front USB and a card reader. However they use USB headers to connect, of which this motherboard has none. I kinda like to use these two features, so I bought a PCI card with two internal USB ports. The problem is that that's what they are. USB ports. Not headers. Which is terribly useful :-/.

After searching the interwebs, I found www.xpcgear.com Two things. 1, does anybody see a reason why it would be incompatible with the two abovementioned items, and 2, anybody know a NZ supplier? Google reveals nothing, and I's rather not order from the US

Thanks

484907 2006-09-15 06:56:00 I was in the exact same position as you a while back . I couldn't find a NZ supplier for those adapter cables and the cost of shipping them from the US is high .

I ended up buying a USB hub which I plugged into on of the spare USB ports on the m/b .

Cause one of my suppliers has them.
Alternatively there are usually a few on Trademe.
