The board in question a an Albatron KX400-8XV PRO 2.0.

I recently(this evening) put together a budget PC for my girlie. AMD+2500, 512megs of RAM(Kingston), 40GB Maxtor HD, LiteON DVD burner, cheapo ATI vid card, and the problem I'm having is with Mitsumi Floppy/card reader.

Whenever I connect the card reader to the USB header on the board the system crashes... Correct that. Won't even boot up. I unplug it and all is fine. When I say fine I mean the PC runs perfectly. Oddly, I can connect the USB expansion card to the same USB header and it'll work fine, but as soon as I plug in this damn card reader the system will not load. Any help would be appreciated.

Just so you know, it works. I pulled the one out of my PC(same floppy card reader in my PC), which I know works, and plugged it into hers and her system still won't boot. My PC boots fine when hers is plugged into my system.
