Hello Oplintech…

We are migrating Gates machines to XP from NT.  The original E-4600 Gates
version of Gateway chassis was supplied without front panel USB connectors
although the motherboard has a header available.   Gateway says they no
longer have replacement connector modules for this series.  Has anyone on
the list with Gates machines been faced with this ?  We can put in a usb hub
and/or card reader into a 5 ˝” drive bay, but would prefer to use the OEM
style cable if anyone has identified a viable substitute.

Thanks.  I realize that success in this is improbable.
