Please log in for more thread options I'm replacing an Acer (VT7100 - s58m) board with something updated and non-acer. My problem is the front panel usb connectors. Since the acer usb plug is the other way round (like the rest of acer crap), I've slightly modified the connector and connected the VC -, D-, D+ and GRD only (x2), thereby cutting off the "pinless" and extra ground part for the new mobo pinouts. Any which way, windows tells me that there's an error with the device and will not read it (mem stick). I've tested the cables and also the mobo USB out with another front panel array. My question is whether the Acer: "s58m audio/usb board" somehow needs to identify itself with an acer motherboard for it to be of any use. Other ID's on the little board are as follows: 00338-1 48.38H02.011 ..... and on the other side: HL2-VO 94V-0 0026 P070A FWIW, The USB and audio sockets are Foxconn (027b's for USB) I've found nothing on the net, but maybe someone here has had a similar challenge.

Please log in for more thread options Hi there. I have a similar problem. I have a tyan S2098 board installed and the front (acer) connector is the same one you have. I have connected the usb ports, they seem to work with some things and not with others. But I can't seeem to figure out what I need to do to connect the audio. I am fairly adept at working with electronics, so I'm not afraid to make some modifications. Did you ever figure out how to add audio to your front panel connector? Perhaps we can trade help, email is chief703@comcast.net Thanks!! Bill | |||||||||||||
