Does anyone else have problems when connecting a USB mass storage device? I installed an internal Mitsumi 7-in-1 floppy/flash card drive (<A HREF="http://www.mitsumi.com/products/fa402amain.html" target="_new">http://www.mitsumi.com/products/fa402amain.html</A> ) and it's pretty hit-or-miss whether it shows up or not.  If it shows up, fine. When it doens't show up, Device Manager says it's there, but with a little exclamation point next to it. If I go into "properties" (or "update driver", can't remember) it says the "device cannot start."  Sometimes BIOS sees it properly and all is well, sometimes it sees nothing.  Then, (my favorite) sometimes in BIOS it will say that I have 3 USB devices - one mouse and 2 drives (the 7-in-1 shows up as 2) - but when I look under Mass Storage devices, it says no devices detected. WTF?
 
I know it's not the drive because it works fine in my buddy's system with the same mobo.  Does my mobo just have USB issues and needs replacing?
