| 25 | |
| 26 | A: Go to your BIOS setup, section PCI devices or similar. |
| 27 | Turn USB support on, and try again. |
| 28 | |
| 29 | Q: No error messages, but still i2c doesn't seem to work. |

| 32 | datasheets, but there are several ways the motherboard manufacturer |
| 33 | can actually wire the lines. |
