USB 2.0 support on Intel D850MV

[vrod2003]

Hello, I have an ABS Digital 1 with the Intel D850MV board and I would like to upgrade my USB controller and add firewire support. Will a PCI board work on this board and if not, what would you recommend as a replacement board that will run a P4 2.0 gHz, 400mHz 478 pin with Rambus RIMM (800mHz - two 256MB), WD 100GB ATA/100 HD, GF4 TI4400 w/128MB, and Soundblaster Audigy Platinum, running XP Pro? Thank you.

Looking at Intel's website info on the board, I see no reason why PCI USB2.0 and/or Firewire boards wouldn't work.

you can use a pci add-in card to support firewire and usb 2.0 feature. there is no need to change your mobo.

you can check this link http://support.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/d850mv/
for your mobo.

if you need further assistance please drop an email.
