NI PCIe-8362

We installed an NI PCIe-8362 into a Super c2sbc-q motherboard in the X4 pcie slot. The MXI4 8362 connected to two NI PXI-8360. The machine booted correctly for several days. After that we found the PC would not boot (hangs in BIOS). We removed the 8362 and the machine still doesn't boot but hangs in the BIOS. The same symptoms occurred after moving the 8362 to another Super c2sbc-q motherboard. The motherboard/8362 combination seems to ruin the motherboard.
We had the same symptoms over a year ago but then the symptoms occured when we installed the 8362 into the video x16 PXIe slot. That "ruined" the motherboard but we determined by using a new Super C2sbc-q and installing the 8362 in the PCIe X4 slot the machine booted and all PXI I/O boards booted worked correctly. In fact several machines in that configuration have been in constant use for over a year. That configuration : Super c2sbc-q and xPCIe 8362 in the X4 slot works for machines configured over a year ago, but is failing with recently purchased boards of the same type.
Do you have any experience or insight into how we could be ruining motherboards with the NI PCIe 8362/Super c2sbc-q motherboard combination? Again this combination works well based on hardware from over a year ago. We can't understand why now we are seeing those symptoms - the motherboard becomes useless.

Hi brokebelt,
Is the PCIe slot on the motherboard intended to be used with a graphics or video card? The user manual for the PCIe-8362 states on page 3-2 that "The BIOS or motherboard may not support the NI PCIe-8361/8362 in a slot
intended for a graphics card." I believe this is probably what was happening when you mentioned trying to use this card in a video x16 slot of a different motherboard. If this card worked on an older version of the motherboard you are trying to use, it is possible that there has been a revision to either the motherboard or BIOS that makes it so it doesn't support anything other than a graphics card in that slot.
I would recommend checking the user manual for the motherboard or check with the manufacturer to see if this slot is intended for a graphics card or not. Hopefully this is helpful! I'm going to attach a link to the PCIe-8362 user manual below.

Need the opinion of experts: N85 with Bluetooth pr...

Really need the opinion of experts on this one.
My N85 was swapped after the complaint that the Music Library Menu opened automatically after pairing with bluetooth of the car (permanent failure). Another complaint was that video recording was defective (intermittent failure). Also, Nokia detected great consumption of battery.
My question is: the swap came back the same relating to the bluetooth problem.. Is this a case of bad repair or a case of low knowledge...? I'm wondering if the Music Library Menu is to open when pairing with car bluetooth (strangely)....

The Dell Precision 380 has 3 PCIe slots: a x16 (for video cards), a x1,
and a x4. I'm sure there are other PCs on the market with
multiple PCIe slots.
Alternatively, the PCIe-8362 has TWO cabled PCI Express links. So
you only need one slot in your host PC. This may not be the best
solution, however, if bandwidth is your primary concern. With one
8362 connected to two chassis, the total maximum throughput is 160
MB/s. With two 8361s (each connected to a different chassis), the
total maximum throughput is 220 MB/s (110 MB/s on each).
Finally, keep in mind that the PXI chassis in your system are still
running at PCI speeds (132 MB/s). Plus, this bandwidth is shared
across all devices in the system. So the MXI Express connection
to the chassis may not be the bottleneck in the system.
Good luck!

Pxi pci mac

I recently purchased the pxi-8362 pcie board to communicate with a PXI-1042Q module from a macintosh. I'm running OS 10.6 on a fairly new mac pro. I was told by the sales team at NI that the PCI and PCIe boards worked on macs, but I can't get mine to show up. I have the latest NI-VISA installed, with the latest NI-DAQmx Base package installed. When I run NIVisaic, I can see the PXI board, but that's the only place. None of the modules connected to it (PXI-6289, 6052e,6711, or 8232) show up anywhere else. Also, the PCI board doesn't even show up in the apple system profiler. It seems like I don't have the proper drivers, but I can't find any, and of course the cd that came with it is just for windows. Any suggestions on how to install this? I came across something about the Driver Wizard in NI-VISA, but I haven't had any luck with what to do with that. Thanks in advance!

A good resource for drivers is www.ni.com/drivers. From there you can find any driver you need. For instance, we can confirm that you have the DAQmxbase 3.4.5 that is specifically for Macs or download it if necessary. Additionally, the latest non-Beta NI-VISA for Macs is version 5.0 and is also available. This website is useful for all NI drivers that you will need for your hardware.

New system, MSI X800XT PCI-E Issues

Hi there!
I just bought a new motherboard, new ram, new cpu and new videocard and was eagerly wanting to set this stuff up.
My system is now as follows:
Motherboard: MSI 925X Neo-54G
CPU: P4 3.40Ghz (1 Mb L2 Cache) (Socket 775)
RAM: 1 GByte DDR2 533
Video Card: MSI RX800 XT-VTD256 (ATI Radeon X800XT PCI-E)
I put everything up and working and installed Windows XP w/ SP2. Installed every driver needed from the motherboard CD, went to ATI's site and downloaded the latest Catalyst Drivers, etc.
After having everything apparently working as it should, I downloaded 3dMark 2005 to see how it went. I had never used the 2005 version before so I wasn't too shocked to see it only got like 3200 points although I was kinda suspicious after seeing some of the tests going at like 1 fps.
I went back to another PC I have at home (a socket 478, P4 3.0Ghz, Asus P4C800 mobo, 1 GByte DDR400 Ram and a GeForce 6800 Ultra). Ran 3dMark 2005 and to my amazement, it got like 4400 points.
Well, double checked everything on the catalyst control panel (nothing really useful there)... then went back to the BIOS setup to investigate what is not working as it should. MSI boards have that nifty Dynamic Overclocking thing and so I turned it on. My BIOS settings are now as following (only listing settings I have doubts on):
DDR2 533 (Dual Channel Mode Enabled)
DRAM Timing Selectable: By SPD
Memory Hole: Disabled
PCI Express Root Port Func: Auto on all 4 ports
PCI-E Compliance Mode: v1.0a
DRAM Data integrity mode: Non-ECC
PCI IDE Busmaster: Enabled (I have a 250GB 8MB SATA HD,fyi)
Init Display First: PCI-E
Maximum Payload Size (PCI-E): 4096
High performance mode: Optimized (Manual is the other option)
Dynamic Overclocking: 5% (0-15% range)
Adjust DDR Frequency: Auto
Auto Detect PCI Clock: Enabled
Spread Spectrum: Disabled
CPU Clock: 200Mhz
CPU Voltage: By CPU default
Memory Voltage: 1.8v
AGP/PCI-E Voltage: 1.5v
Ok, so, can anyone tell me what is wrong (if anything)? I mean, I think this PC should be faster than my other one...
I'm not really interested in overclocking and I am really convinced this hardware should be able to beat my other one easily with default operating status.
Also, I tested this PC's performance with Rome: Total War and it is just as 3dMark had showed, it performs worse than the other pc I mentioned, with the same exact settings.
Any help please?
Regards!

PCI DIO 32HS (6533) Suddenly giving "The device is not responding to the first IRQ level" error, and no longer functioning.

Greetings NI folks,
I'm an oceanographer, and have an sidescan sonar data aquasition computer running Windows XP SP2, and NiDAQ 7.0 (Legacy). For several years, this machine has worked flawlessly, but today, I booted it up to test the system for an upcoming job, and I got some strange errors in our sonar program. I tranced the problem to our NI-6533 PCI-DIO-32HS card. I launched NI Automation Explorer to test that the card was responsive, and when I click the "test panel", I get an error: "The device is not responding to the first IRQ level." Continue (yes/no). If I click yes, I can test the digital i/o's, but nothing happens, and all the tests fail (nonresponsive). I tried moving the card to another PCI slot, tried forcing it to have a specific IRQ that was unused by anything else, and finally tried moving it to another computer that had never been used with the DIO card. I'm still getting the error, and the card is nonresponsive. I'm at the limit of my abilities, and would like to know if there's anything else I can do, or should we send the card back to NI for repair/diagnosis.
Thanks.

Z97 GAMING 9 AC - PCIE and the wi-fi module no longer detecting

Hi,
I 'm Overclocking enthusiast and recently decided to take to my hometown in Brazil using a platform products from MSI, to make disclosure of benchmark tests in social networks and in gaming blogs.
So i purchased a new system including the MSI Z97 GAMING 9 AC motherboard and MSI Gaming N770 TF 4GD5/OC GeForce GTX 770 4GB graphics card. After building the system I initially had problems with the graphics card not being detected and the wi-fi module (that hard to fit in the mobo) don't even appear in device manager. I already tried to dismount and remount the module on the motherboard with extreme care, no success. After some research I updated the bios to 1.5 and used the onboard graphics card to install windows 8.1, drivers etc. After windows, drivers etc were installed the graphics card and the wi-fi module still would not detect.
I have tried another graphics card in this system and it does not seem to work either. In bios it just always says that the PCIE slots are 'empty'.
So I have tried the following:
1. Cleared CMOS.
2. Updated BIOS.
3. Updated Chipset, drivers etc.
4. Tested the Graphics Card in other computers.
5. Used a different graphics card in this system.
6. Tried PCIE 2.0, 3.0 and auto.
7. Completely reformated and started from scratch.
So after many attempts I am disappointed with MSI and need some solution to my problem, since I saw that several customers who have purchased from MSI are the same product with exactly the same problem which possibly conclude that MSI has a duty to resolve these cases.
Full Specs:
•   EVGA SuperNOVA 1300G2 ATX12V/EPS12V 1300W 80Plus Gold Power Supply 120-G2-1300-XR
•   Corsair Cooling Hydro Series H100i Liquid CPU Cooler - Extreme Performance CPU Cooling and Built-In
•   Intel Core i7 4790 LGA1150 CPU 3.6Ghz
•   Corsair Vengeance Pro 16GB 2x8GB DDR3
•   2 x Kingston 120GB SSD 6Gbs
•   Microsoft Windows 8.1 Pro 64bit OEM
•   MSI Z97 Gaming 9 AC Motherboard
•   MSI Gaming N770 TF 4GD5/OC GeForce GTX 770 4GB 256-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card

I have the exact same problem with my gaming 9 AC only the PCIe slot for gfx card worked initially. MSI support sent me a new WiFi adapter, it also didnt work. When I installed it, the PCIe slot would not identify my graphics card anymore. MSI support then advised me to return the board to the reseller, where it is now - they are checking it for defects before they do anything.
Ill keep you updated how they proceed from here. If there are any more problems I will just ask my reseller to downgrade me to a gaming 7, I can add a pcie wifi card on my own, and avoid the hassle.

Z97 GAMING 9 AC - PCIE no longer detecting

Hi,
So I recently purchased a new system including the MSI Z97 GAMING 9 AC motherboard and MSI R9 280X GAMING G3 graphics card. After building the system I initially had problems with the graphics card not being detected. After some research I updated the bios to 1.4 and used the onboard graphics card to install windows 8.1, drivers etc. After windows, drivers etc were installed the graphics card still would not detect until I went into the bios and changed the PCIE to 2.0 (instead of auto). This then used the 280x instead of onboard and allowed me to install the graphics card drivers. I switched the PCIE to 3.0 after it was working.
Initially everything was working but the next morning I had the same issue again: only the onboard graphics card was being used. I switched back to PCIE 2.0 and it worked again. Until the next morning: the 280x is no longer being detected at all in any PCIE slots or in PCIE auto, 2.0 or 3.0. I have ruled out a graphics card issue as the 280x works in other pcs. I have tried another graphics card in this system and it does not seem to work either. In bios it just always says that the PCIE slots are 'empty'.
So I have tried the following:
1. Cleared CMOS.
2. Updated BIOS.
3. Updated Chipset, drivers etc.
4. Tested the Graphics Card in other computers.
5. Used a different graphics card in this system.
6. Tried PCIE 2.0, 3.0 and auto.
7. Completely reformated and started from scratch.
Any suggestions as to why the PCIE slots seem to have stopped detecting?

Was this issue ever solved as im seeing the same issue.
When I first booted the machine all was well however when I came to reboot my machine for the first time it no longer sees I have a GPU and so switched to the Intel onboard 4600.
At first I assumed the GPU had come lose or some BIOS setting needed changing. BIOS is set to use PEG (PCI-E Graphics card device) so i reseated the card and rebooted. This didn't work.
I reset the BIOS CMOS and that fixed the issue, my machine booted using the graphics card again however as soon I rebooted windows again it lost the card switching back to the onboard.
According to the BIOS the PCI-E slot is empty. I swapped the card out for an older ATI 7870 but had the same problem. PCI-E slot is empty unless I clear the CMOS (I made no changes in the BIOS).
At this point it sounds like some kind of software issue I have updated my BIOS to the latest version (1.5) but that hasn't fixed the issue. Whenever I shutdown or restart it will lose sight of my card unless I clear the CMOS or power down at the wall.

Dv6265us connexant PCI sound card + windows 7 = Not working

So I'm here becuase I can't find a driver on my own. I've scoured the internet for hours, finding very little to help with my issue. So here goes...
I have an HP Pavilion dv6000 (Dv6265us), and ever since I installed window 7, Windows cannot figure out what drivers to install for the PCI sound card. The best I've found so far says this:
"Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it"
"Microsoft UAA Bus Driver for High Definition Audio"
"If you know the manufacturer of your device, you can visit its website and check the support section for driver software."
Now here's the funky part...everywhere I've found information on my laptop, it says I have a Conexant PCI sound card. If I'm wrong I would love for someone to tell me; better yet, a link to a download to actually be able to use the PCI sound card. Right now the card is under other devices and is listed as "PCI Device".
Now the Link I've provided from the conexant site will tell you this under PC Audio Support - Windows® 7,
"Conexant develops audio solutions that are used in a wide range of products including personal computers. We provide customized audio drivers to our customers, which include major computer manufacturers globally. At the request of these manufacturers, Conexant does not provide end-user support or drivers for PC audio products. If you have an issue with the audio configuration in Windows 7, please contact the manufacturer of your computer.
I tried calling HP support, but they wouldn't even answer my yes or no question... "Do you have audio drivers for my laptop that will allow me to hear sound?" Instead of saying yes or no, I was told that I needed to pay fifty to one-hundred dollars;....fifty dollars for a one time fee of telephone service, or one-hundred for the year. I even went as far as asking..."if you can't fix my problem, do I get a refund?" I was told no...so here I am. I've had problems before with hp...but this is rediculous, and whats worse is from the way things look, Connexant was told NOT to support their own product, or provide drivers for windows 7 by their customer(HP). I realize everyone is hurting for money, but **bleep**, this is a new low...

To answer your question, there are no windows 7 drivers for that model notebook. The notebook was designed for Windows 2000, Windows xp and windows vista.
This is one of the issues with upgrading the OS on a computer before checking the specs of the hardware.
I do understand the frustration but it would be more beneficial to revert back to the original OS that the notebook came with. That is what the HP support desk will have you do to prove functionality of the notebook should you have paid for the Diagnostic Support.
Although I am an HP employee, I am speaking for myself and not for HP. Clicking the "Kudos star" to the left is a great way to say thanks!

PCIE 3.0 test with MSI Z68A-GD80 G3 :)

The Z68A-GD80 G3 is MSI’s first motherboard with PCIE 3.0 connectivity. Currently there are no PCIE 3 devices available yet but later on we can test its performance by using a PCIE SSD. Aside from this, the board has also a new UEFI Bios named “Click Bios II” which for me is way better than the previous version.
Before we take a closer look on the board, let’s check out the package first.
Box design is a bit the same as the GD80 B3 version before. Once you open it up, all main features of the said board are enumerated
Extreme Power Design, Military Class II Components (SFC, Hi-C Caps, Multi Bios), 3 PCIEx16 Slots, Super Charger and OC Genie II
For the bundled accessories, you have the same old story – Manual, Software Disc, four SATA cables, two Molex to SATA power connectors & SLI Bridge. Then for some extras - PCI USB 3.0 two ports bracket, guide headers for faster and easy connectivity and lastly voltage check points.
Next, the “Mainboard”. By physically looking at it and by comparing it side by side against the Z68A-GD80 B3 motherboard. You won’t find any difference except for the PCIE X16 locks. It has also the same black and blue color theme, two vrm heatsinks connected by a flat heatpipe and V-Check points.
Moving closer to the board you have 8 Power Pins to power up the processor, 2 PCI slots, 2 PCIE x1 slots for devices such as TV Tuners or Audio Cards. 2 PCIE Gen3 & 1 PCIE Gen2 x16 Slots. With one VC connected at the top most slot, speed will be @ x16. If both top and middle are used, it will be @ x8/x8. Lastly, by using the 3rd PCIEx16 Gen2 slot. You have x8/x8/x4. It would also disable certain onboard devices such as eSATA Port, Sata 7, one onboard front USB 3.0, two PCI Slots and firewire. So if possible avoid using the last VC slot.
At the top most PCIE x1 area. You will find a 6-pin power connector. This will provide more juice/power for multi-GPU setups.
Next, at the bottom part of the board. You have the Easy Buttons (Power and Reset) and the popular one button “OC Genie”. The red colored USB header is for the Super Charger while the blue is a regular USB 3.0. For the SATA Connectors you have a total of 7. 4 regular SATA 3GB/s, 2 SATA 6GB/s controlled by Intel chipset and another SATA 6GB/s by Marvell.
Wrapping things up, we have now the IO terminal ports. Starting from the left we have combo PS2 port and SPDIF Optical Out. Clear CMOS Button, e-SATA port running under Marvell, 2 USB 2.0 and Firewire ports controlled by Via. Moving across, 2 Gigabit Lan by Realtek 8111E, 2 USB 2.0 and 2 USB 3.0 run under NEC D720200 controller. Next, we have DVI and HDMI output connections and 6 analog audio ports by Realtek ALC892.
Once you are into the bios, you will find the new and improved Click Bios. Nice and professional looking, faster navigation and easier to use.
To test the performance of the new PCIE Gen3 technology, we will be using this Photofast PCIE SSD device http://www.photofast.tw/comboproducts.asp?pid=1.
We will be connecting the PCIE SSD device on the GD80’s Gen3 and Gen2 slots and compare the results using the disk benchmark software ATTO. I ran the benchmark 9 times for the two set of tests.
System Configuration as follows:
Processor: Intel Core i7 2600K at default stock speed
Memory: Kingston HyperX Genesis Grey 2x2GB DDR3 2133MHz
SSD: OCZ Vertex 2
Motherboard: MSI Z68A-GD80 G3
Softwares: CPU-Z 1.58, Windows 7 Ultimate 64 Bit with SP1, Latest Atto Software 1.47 I think.
First test, Photofast running on Gen2 (third VC slot). One screenshot from the 9 tests made
Second, using the Gen 3 connectivity. One screenshot from the 9 tests made
Below is the summary of all the tests done on the board with the Photofast SSD PCIE.
That’s probably it. More forum posts to come 

Did you have your previous board's BIOS set to AHCI or IDE ? You need to set this BIOS the same.
Firstly only insert one RAM module in the slot closest to the CPU. Remove the rest. Then do full CMOS clear >>Clear CMOS Guide<< also remove the MB battery.
What BIOS do you currently have ? The initial BIOS releases were plagued by CPU throttling which have been fixed in the cyrrent beta BIOS releases.

PCI-e wireless card causes lock ups Z87 MPower MAX

I've already asked this question once, but was part of an epic essay that I've decided to break down into smaller more manageable chunks (as unsurprisingly that one got no replies).
I've got an ASUS PCE-A66 wireless ac pci-e card. Had absolutely no issues with it in my old Z77 board, but I seem to be having a lot of issues with it in my new Z87 MPower MAX. System was locking up like mad when I was trying to install the drivers at first. Had to rip out the WiFi/Bluetooth/WiDi module to get the drivers installed but the system randomly hangs on boot up? Don't get the issues with the card unplugged and don't always get it with it plugged in, but there seems to be some form of conflict with it that I can't resolve. Has anyone else had any such issues with any PCI-e add in cards on this motherboard?
Specs are:
i7 4770k
MSI MPower MAX using .128 bios (will try the .131 later)
2x4GB Corsair Dominator Platinum 2400
Coolermaster Silent Pro Hybrid 1050w
EVGA NVidia GTX 780 SC ACX
Windows 8 Pro 64bit

Yes, old system was Win8 Pro 64 bit too and the drivers are Windows 8 certified. As I say though, I had no issues with it on the old build? Even got a replacement sent out by Amazon in case the card itself was damaged Did initially try to do a warm update of the hardware into the same OS installation but didn't play well so did a full re-install in the end. Tried standard and UEFI installs (just in case) and after a problem with my OCZ Vector 2 not being recognised I bought a new Samsung 840 Pro so was a virgin SSD installed on to as well.
I'll raise it directly with MSI but just wanted to know if anyone else had experienced anything similar with any wireless cards in this mobo.
Cheers for the reply though

PCI 2.1 SLot on K7T Turbo Limited Edition?

I'm about to get a Firewire Card but I'm not sure whether my MB : K7T Turbo Limited Edition (MS-6330 v3.X) has a PCI 2.1 slot. I haven't found it in manual either. Can anybody help?
Thanks
minurec

Welcome!
My Turbo2 manual doesn't specify either, but specs on MSI site for mine shows 32 bit PCI 2.2, usually backward compatible. Your MB is just one very short edition back, and I bet your slots are probably the same and 2.1 compatible. MSI shows yours as 32 bit, but w/o the #version. To my memory the 2.1 standard predates our MBs by a couple of years or more. I think you're safe to go.

very nice CPU. overclocks great. i know this thing can do more...but not being able to change the ram voltage in the bios (everytime i do, it reverts back to 2.6) stops me at 180.

K7n2 delta, won't allow me to connect to the internet via pci modem

motherboard: K7n2 delta, nforce2 ultra
won't allow me to connect to the internet via pci modem
i have got 2 computers with same mobo, can connnect through external 56k
but the 2 internal 56ks (one in each computer), will not connect.
just dials then beeps, or no dialing tone.
the 2 internal ones are differnet makes, but connect through PCI
there must be something wrong with Mobo settings or pci stuff
all internet and modem settings are correct, etc etc etc
can u help
or does anyone have a pci 56k running on that mobo?

If your not hearing dial tone you might have your phone plugged into the wrong port. Most modems have 2 outlets, one is labeled line ( that is the one you should have plugged into the jack (RJ11C). If that's correct, query the modem and see if it tests OK, you may have a defective modem.

MSI KT3 Ultra ARU PCI/AGP divider

Hey,
I'm using the overclocking features on the board, but i can't find the PCI/AGP adjustment in the BIOS, any body know what i can do??
I'm using the latest BIOS which is 5.6
Cheers

Ah, now thats what i've been told but according to Sisoft Sandra my AGP is 86Mhz and PCI is 43Mhz so itdon't look like its kicked in.
Any advice, do i have a dodgy board?

K9N Platinum SLI - Powering up the PCIe cards

Hey everyone,
I've got a K9N Platinum SLI board. This board has a power supply input point called PWR2, which according to the documentation is used to provide power to stable the operation of graphics cards. My graphic card is BFG nVidia 9750 GT. This card has the PCI-Express external power plug in the back, and my power supply has a dedicated (red) connector for this purpose, which I have attached properly.
The PWR2 is currently connected also, into one of the black 12V connectors. Otherwise, everything is running fine and smooth, but I am sometimes (once a day or so) experiencing random shutdowns during intense gaming (playing LotRO). Stress testing does not cause a shutdown: I've ran 3D Mark 2007 straight for 8-9 hours, while having a CPU Burner application toast the CPU at the same time. But no problems whatsoever. No other games exhibit this problem either.
Since I am providing dedicated power through the extra connector at the back of the card, should I leave the PWR2 connector unplugged ? Is there a chance that using these two connectors at the same time causes the 12V rail to overload, and the PSU shuts down to protect itself ? When this shut down occurs, the power LED is left blinking and I need to plug out the wall socket and wait for several minutes before the blinking stops and it starts up again.
My computer has an Enermax Liberty 620W power supply, and AMD Athlon X2 4600+ CPU. So there should be enough juice, at least. I've tried the tips and tricks suggested here. Using USB-connected Keyboard and Mouse does not correct the issue. I've also verified that this is not an overheating issue. My CPU is cooled by a Scythe Ninja tower heatsink and two 12 cm fans. It is possible that the northbride is heating up (it burns the finger on touch when under load), but from the Web, I've understood that the stock passive heatsink should be enough, and that the NB chip can take rather extreme temperatures.
* UPDATE *
Plugged the PWR2 connector out from the MB, and update the BIOS to 1.10. It's working as usual, but haven't ran any games yet. Heavy gaming usually reproduces the issue, so I'll write more when I know more.

Updated information on the case.
I've been running 2 days now with the PWR2 unplugged. I have had zero problems with shutdowns since. The only problem I now have is that the USB keyboard and mouse refuse to work in Windows XP after an initial bootup from powered down state. I have to unplug and replug them at the login screen in order to get them work again.
So, I decided to do a final sanity check, and replugged the PWR2, then went gaming. After 2 hours of playing, my computer shutted down for the first time. Plugging in the cable did not solve the USB problem either.
As of this day, I'm leaving it unplugged. It seems like an irrelevant connector, which just causes problems.
** Update **
After following Bosskiller's instructions on another thread about using the "Clear CMOS" button and then reconfiguring BIOS from scratch, the cold boot USB issues were solved. The USB devices now work straight after a cold boot, with no need to replug them.
I recommend that the PWR2 -connector info is added to the list of known problems in the sticky thread. If you have a GPU card which takes its power from a dedicated rail (and your PSU has a dedicated connector for this purpose), then leaving the PWR2 -connector unplugged might resolve your shutdown issues, like it solved mine.
After all, according to the manual, this connector is used to give more voltage to the PCI and PCIe busses, and some PCI/PCIe cards might not like this idea at all. There is a reason why these cards have an additional power plug on them...
