SIOC not seeing devices

[Jerrymc3]

I upgraded my PC this week: Asus Z87 PRO MB and i7 4770K CPU. After I got everything up and running I started SIOC but my 2 USB Expansion Cards weren't listed under Devices. I checked the cables and noticed the led on the cards doesn't blink once as usual when I plug/unplug the USB cable. I plugged a jump drive into the USB slots I was using for the Exp cards and Windows sees them fine. I tried reinstalling SIOC but it didn't help. I've never run accross this problem when swapping boards before. Anyone have an idea what's causing the problem?

Hello Jerry.

Have you updated your Sioc.ini according to the new USB numbers?

Remember to use correct USB connector on MB as just a few of
them are USB 1.1 compliant.

USB Ports Intel® Z87 chipset :
4 x USB 3.0/2.0 port(s) (2 at back panel, blue, 2 at mid-board)
8 x USB 2.0/1.1 port(s) (8 at mid-board)
4 x USB 3.0/2.0 port(s) (4 at back panel, blue)

Have you updated your Sioc.ini according to the new USB numbers?

The device numbers aren't showing up in SIOC for some reason.

I plugged my 2 USB Exp Cards into a USB addon module that is plugged into one of the 8 x USB 2.0/1.1 port(s) (8 at mid-board). A jump drive works fine in them so I can't understand why SIOC can't see them.

Hi Jerry.

I’ve no clue actually.
What do USBCheck tell you – any OC hardware showing up at all?

[fordgt40]

Jerry

OC cards are intolerant of some addon hubs etc. Have you tried connecting each expansion card directly into a USB port (not through your add-on) to see if SIOC recognises the card?

David

[Jerrymc3]

This wasn't an addon hub, just a plate with 4 external USB ports installed in a slot in the back of the chassis and plugged into 2 USB 2.0/1.1 port connectors. I didn't reinstall Windows7 after installing this motherboard, just installed the drivers and applications on the Asus disk. I wonder if that could be a problem. I will try USB Check but all the USB ports on the I/O backplate are USB 3.0 on this board. Thx for the input. I'll let you know what I find as soon as I get back to my cockpit this afternoon.

Did you try plugging the expansion cards into different usb ports?

[Perik]

Jerry,

Are you sure you're at the latest and greatest from ASUS driver page
Seems some of the updates are quite new.

[Jerrymc3]

I tried all 4 of the USB USB 2.0/1.1 ports but not the 3.0. I thought it automatically checked for Asus driver updates but I will make sure. I'll call Asus tech support and see if I can get help from them. Otherwise I may have to take this board back.
