Ok so i got mycar pc up and running in the car, still tweaks to do, but one annoying thing is that i was planning on having this hub in the glove compartment to connect the GPS and screen up front and allow me to connect my ipod up easily if needed.

With the hub connected into the mobo USB ports it works fine, however when connecting it to the USB extension that runs from the boot behind the dash into the glove compartment it says it cannot detect the hardware connected?

If i connect the screen / a mouse / gps to the extension it finds them all fine, but for some reason the computer doesnt like the hub connected?!

Can anyone explain why this is doing it?:confused:?

Thanks
 
Maybe the ports that you are connecting it too are only running USB1 and the hub needs USB2 which is what the actual motherboard ports are running, and the ones at the back of the case are only USB1?

Probably unlikely, but thought it's worth a mention.
