Welcome

I find increasingly when I have a specific computer "challenge" (err problem) that the only useful answers tend to be in personla blogs. For example, if an NVidia 6200 seems to not like a certain DVD player, the appropriate support forums tend to be full of unanswered or misanswered junk. The only useful info tends to be some one somewhere who SOLVED the problem and added the info to a blog.

So this is my attempt to pay this back - after I've wasted 3 hours trying to be my DLink external USB hub to not crash my Asus K8V-MX motherboard on boot up, I can post the solution here in hopes other people in the same rare situation can benefit.
