Title: Grr shuttle
Post by: Shakey on January 04, 2007, 15:42:10 PM
Just got my new SD37P2, and am currently building it. Because of the lack of space I bought one of those funky floppy drive and card reader in one things. The card reader needs a USB header on the mobo, fortunately my shuttle has 2. Unfortunately when Shuttle designed their systems, they say fir to use some strange 5-pin arrangement for these headers, with the pins slightly too close together to allow a standard connector to fit on them :(

Luckily after some slight, shall we say persuasion, it now fits.

All I really wanted to say was GRRRRRR! and to ask if anyone else has had this small but annoying issue?
