Is it possible to connect memory card reader cable (5 pin connection) and a IEEE 1394 cable (also 5 pin) to a USB connection (10 pin connection) on the motherboard. Basically i am reassembling a computer that some one else disassembled for a friend and i don't see any connection for the Memory Card reader or the IEEE 1394 cables except one available USB connection block (10 pins) on the motherboard. Physically the two 5 pin cables will perfectly match the 10 pin USB connection.
It is a HP Media Center M7000 pc with windows XP. The original motherboard got zapped by a power surge so we got identical board from China on EBay and it is working perfectly. The owner does not have the Windows XP cd so it is fantastic that the pc did not reject the transplant He does not have the XP cd so if anyone knows is there a way to make a restore cd of his system if he ever has to reinstall?
