Hello,

might be this is interesting for anyone, because I searched for such an
information for a long time in the web, but with no success.

I tried to install an USB-2.0 PCI-card from Belkin
in an Asus motherboard P2B/350-G (Asus-Bios 1014 Beta 003). Bios
supports PCI-2.1.

First I tried to install the Belkin-PCI-card F5U219de with no success,
than the Belkin-PCI-card F5U220g with no success.
The program "pcisniffer
http://www.miray.de/products/sat.pcisniffer.html
showed, that these two Belkin-cards are not recognized from the PCI-Bus.
I tried many possibilities with Bios: PCI-IRQ's, USB-IRQ's, but with no
success.

Then I changed to an USB-2.0 PCI-card from Adaptec: AUA-3100LP/EFIGS and
this card was immediately recognized both by the PCI-Bus and then by
WIN-XP-Pro.

Might be this is a help for anybody -
best wishes -

Which USB chips did these cards use, respectively? I know of three ones:
VIA, NEC and ALi. NEC is supposedly very compatible, we're running a
card with this chip with no trouble. VIA frequently gives trouble, no
idea about the ALi chip.

Hello Stephan,
Belkin as well as Adaptec use the NEC-chip.
