Jo Ann, You know me better than that. It would be dumb to proceed without asking about these issues, especially the one about frying your friend's camera. :O) That 10th pin is not connected to anything, including ground, so it would be a wasted effort to connect anything there. Where is this 'extra' ground wire from? I think that's the only thing I don't understand about your setup. And yes, first try it with a USB mouse or something similar. I'm pretty sure they're cheaper than a camera. lol Peace, GMan "The only dumb questions are the ones that are never asked!" ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jo Ann" <bookworm54@xxxxxxx> To: <pctechtalk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, April 09, 2007 12:04 PM Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- Re: Front USB hookup > Yes, > > The illustration looks just like my hookup on the board.
