I am in the process of putting all the bits together and I'm at the cable connection stage.
I have the P5K Premium mobo in a Coolermaster R1000 case. I also have a 3.5" card reader.
The case supports front panel USB and has 2x cables that need connecting up. The card reader is also USB and also needs connecting.
However, the mobo only has two USB connections (that I can see!). What should I do? Is there a work around? I notice that there is a green COM1 port (which I presume is serial). As USB is based on Serial, is it possible to use this as an additional USB header?
Thanks in advance!
Pete
