    Im planning on building a HTPC for someone and am in a bit of a pickle over the usb headers on the motherboard.

    I need three headers, one for the two usb on the front panel, one for an lcd display and one for a card reader.

    The thing is although the motherboards im looking at support an extra 4 usb plugs but there are only 2 dual usb headers on the board.... ie usb56 and usb78.

    Is there a way of splitting the usb headers or combining the usb devices so that I can have all three working. Its a compromise between the lcd and card reader..... other than a camera I dont know what else you might want to plug into a HTPC. Maybe I could just lose the usb plugs if there is no way around it.
