-=PCTechTalk=- Re: Becky's front USB ports

Becky,
    We're about 90% there.  Now, using a flashlight without touching 
anything inside and with the power off, open the case and look on the lower 
half of the mainboard (could be anywhere in the lower half) for a pin header 
with a layout like the one here (very close to actual size, too).   : : : : 
.      That's a row of 4 pins along with a row of 5 pins in a single 
connector.  These pins will be coming straight up (coming towards you) from 
the mainboard.  Considering the age of this mainboard, it may not have them 
or they may already be in use (in which case you'll have a hard time 
recognizing them).

    Tonight's forecast, Dark.  Continued mostly dark thru the night, but we 
should have scattered sunlight by morning.

Peace,
GMan
