Well, I did have the front USB ports of my tower still attached to one of the internal USB ports, I forgot about them, but that realy doesnt matter now, does it ? I mean, uSB2 seems to be fine when using those USB mouse/KB....

Going to try copying later again....

The Mouse & Keyboard are low-speed so do not use the EHCI driver.

Just from scanning your logs it seems the 440 and 460 are somewhat different for USB.
I hope a 460 user can help out more, or a dev..

What do you mean "dont use ehci because my mouse and kb aer lowspeed" ?

Cant disable EHCI, I will loose USB2 again. and I need that fro HD's, camera's etc.

No,no. I'm saying the M & K are USB1.1 devices and do not require the EHCI drivers and
therefore are (may be) controlled by the OHCI drivers. The only time I have any problem
with EHCI is booting with a USB2 device plugged in before the system is full booted, and
then not with every USB2 device.

Anyway, it seems that the PSU is not the culprit here...

I plugged in my 'original' kb/ms setup while running OS4 (you know, that USB to 2x PS2 adapter, KVM switch etc..)
The adapter was recognised, and the kb works now, but the mouse only goes up and down, sort off...

It does more then earlier with my upd 4 install.... I feel I'm getting somewhere

Update:

I installed everything from scratch, update 2 CD, then upd 3, then upd 4.

My kb and mouse keep working even after rebooting or power off :-)

So everything seems to be solved now.

I think something went wrong updating to upd 3 and 4 :-?
And those block errors, gone ! It was definately some corrupt files causing that.

Right now I can concentrate on installing my old programs back. And getting the system customised and streamlined.

I will later on, write a little review about installing, upgrading, trouble shooting, installing other apps and using the Sam, and post that on AW.

Thanks all, who helped me getting here :-)

Cheers

Martin
