Hey guys,
I've this motherboard. Twice I've plugged external hard drives into one of the usb ports on the back only to find that their power supplies have been fried (on one occasion my friend did it by accident). Are there some sort of settings that I could look at? It's very strange...and I have to use a separate usb hub to be able to plug any data storage devices in.
What I'm guessing is that the motherboard is providing the usb sockets with too higher voltage and consequently the devices are overloaded.
Thanks in advance for your help,
