Hi Patrick, I'll just mention this and you can chk your mainboard docs. I was working on a older amd box last night. The owner purchased a quickcam and a USP adapter to plug into a pci slot. I wasn't interested in it, just noted it and an ethernet adapter displayed in the system setup. As we dug out old crap I found that the ether adapter was an onboard pinout connector that could be removed with a jumper, as well as an old 'data port' and USB. The USB was controlled via the BIOS and not a jumpber on this box. I wonder if you have a similar situation there?
