USB PCI card no go. Kouwell brand okay? It'll have a different chipset to current 4 port USB PCI ali chipset
 

Hi and thanks

My kids' mobo is a GA-6VX7 with Celeron 433

I purchased a too cheap, ***ali chipset*** 4 port PCI USB card that Windows
sees but can
****only connect an USB mouse****. (I've seen others have this problem.)

Tried different slots and BIOS settings. ****Won't detect any other
peripheral****. Not even by swearing.

I thought I'd try a Kouwell USB PCI card, which has a different chipset,
***'VIA'***.

Any chipset better than another here? Or just give it a go?

Thanks

Darren
