Hi there,

I have an ASRock k7vt2 motherboard with 4+2 USB ports attached. Now I'm trying to add a Belkin Hi-speed USB 2.0 5-Port PCI Card.

However, when I connect it, the original rear panel USB ports stop functioning. Would you know why?

I'm thinking that the motherboard might not be able to handle so many USB connections, would that be it? - Or can it only be a power issue? - USB devices with their own power supply don't work on the rear panel USB ports either...

Page for the motherboard:

Page for the PCI card:

Thanks for any help!
:confused:
