Hi BigCroc,

W7 does not have any generic USB3 drivers, try here
USB3.0 Card Reader_USB Hub_ORICO

DO NOT select the registry option in SAS pro.

Have you made sure your usb 3.0 ports are enabled in your bios?
Have you installed your usb 3.0 drivers from your motherboard CD?

 

[bigcroc64]

Look up your motherboard on line and find the usb 3.0 drivers and install them if they are not already installed.
I'm not sure how one can loose a motherboard CD. Do another search. It would make things easier if you had the CD.

screen shot when conected to the back

 

[derekimo]

According to your manual, the ones on the back are ASmedia and Intel,



The front header is just Intel.

It looks like it is trying to install an Intel USB driver in your screenshot.

Did you click run?

Unplug your card reader for a minute and try installing that driver it wants.

 

[derekimo]

The front header is right here,



Did you ever install the chipset drivers? That may be causing some issue if you haven't.
