I want to plug a USB device directly to the USB pins on my motherboard (so as not to waste any of the USB ports). Is there some sort of adapter I can buy? Thanks! :cheers: |

Here is one. I am sure there are many others available. http://www.usbwholesale.com/motherboard%20cable.htm |

Thanks for the links - I want to make a custom shell-mounted i/o panel for my next cabinet and solutions like this are great. |

I always think its best to use the on-board USB ports if they are present, but the M/B manufacturers dont make it easy to find or buy the header cables that are guaranteed to work. Mind you if you think those are tricky to find, try finding a serial port header cable for an ASUS board! Virtually impossible, I had to make one in the end. Andy |
