hi..

I am thinking about upgrading my system

asus p4te or pb266; the pb266 has a lot more features, e.g. 4 usb 2.0 ports,

with usb 1.1 I have a lot of trouble with pci-master-overflow-messages;

is usb 2.0 as critical as 1.1 ?

thanks in advance

if you have 2 creamware cards and you get a p4b266 you will probably need to turn off usb2 anyways as it is on the same IRQ as slot 1/5 probably should save your money and get p4b266-c (no usb2 or audio)

I have a seperate computer for all those consumer toys (usb stuff) so it will not interfere with my creamware cards. if i had a USB drive or something i could just have it as a shared network drive.
