Tom,

Are your USB 3 sockets part of the Mobo, or have you used a PCI E version USB card?

Next, which HD are you using with it?

Tom,

Do you use the USB3 External Drive just for backup or is it fast enough
to use as a normal HD?

Most of the important software is now running and most have been hassle
free. Hardware generally seems to have worked on plugging in with W7
grabbing the correct updates for each unit - I've hardly touched any
installation disks. The only two items not working yet are the Logitech
Videocam 5000 (no W7 drivers) and the scanner. I'll dump the webcam as I
can't remember why I got it. I think the scanner may be OK once I
replace the Firewire cable with USB2.

The mobo comes with two USB3 sockets but I suspect it is ahead of its
time just yet.

With things going well so far I'll let the system settle down for a few
days and have a break from endless installation programs. When I recover
I'll start digging out the endless FS disks lying around and see what
the next steps are. My intention is to start off with FS2004 installed
as I am familiar with that and have lots of payware scenery and aircraft
for it. Then it will be fun trying to dig out the stick, pedals, Track
IR and Go Flight units to see if they remember how to work.
