Mitsumi FA404A not compatable with Asus P5AD2E Premium

After nearly two weeks of searching and working on my computer so it could
use the Mitsumi FA404A floppy/USB card reader on my
Asus P5AD2E Premium mother board I am told today by Mitsumi Technical
Support that the Mitsumi FA404A is not compatible with the Asus P5AD2E
Premium mother board. (To bad, so sad)

This card reader is a simple USB reader that works on my AOpen mother board
without any problem, I find it hard to accept that a board as advanced as
the P5AD2E Premium does not accept it.

Does anyone have ideas of a work around, I really can't since the pin
connection on the mother board is only a short route to the mobo and
accessing the board from inside or outside the case is the same.

Would adding a USB card do the trick? I would simply have to modify a
connector to use a card, but would it work? or are the cards exactly the
same as the on board USB ports?


Any help please

Thanks
James
 
I am having the same problem........... Interesting part is.... MINE WORKED
FINE UNTIL I UPGRADED TO WINDOWS SP2?????

I too am having this prblem with the same hardware and a MSI and a BIOSTAR
Motherboard. They both worked at one time and now neither one works. I HAVE
TWO DIFFERENT CARD READERS/////

James, have you found anything else out on this?
