USBDRIVE does detect and assign a letter to my USB flash drive, however, it isn't assigning my USB floppy drive a letter. USBDEVIC does list it as a UFI FLoppy CBI from vend TEAC (I can list all the specifics if it's needed) - I will say that under interfaces it says "Owned" and the root hub and …

If the ports are enabled in the CMOS settings, you ought to be able to have a look in Device Manager and see them now. Actually, it was enabled in CMOS, I enabled it before installing my PCI card.

I don't even know the proper search terms to find those devices, when I search for two port USB cable adapter it shows me pictures of USB splitters - I don't know where the USB headers are in that image or how to install them.

Not that I can see. I just tried installing a USB PCI card and it is not even powering the devices. Can’t figure out the drivers. I am wasting too much money on this computer that I can’t afford. Another option is an IDE to USB converter but I want to make sure I know what I’m buying and doing …

Also, like, it doesn't even detect or power devices plugged into it. The speaker I plug in (which it should only use for power) lights do not turn on. My USB mouse does not turn on. I only plan to use it for storage, but is that expected? No power on the usb ports with such a simple card likely …

Is there a way to uninstall the nusb36 drivers? Do I need to, or do I just take the card out and install nusb36 again?
