The psu is 420w. I have one cd writer, one dvd writer, one hdd, an AGP card, 3 fans, no firwire on the mobo but the Syba card has firewire ports that I don't use. The front panel audio plugs into the psu, so you would think I have enough power. The thumbdrive works fine when I plug it into the back of the computer's usb, so if it was a power thing, you would think it wouldn't work there either. Also, my usb webcam works when I plug it into the front panel usb, so it really does not seem to be a power thing.
I think XP is getting confused somehow.
Think what you want. But remember that the USB ports gets its power after it has been stepped down to a working value from a distant PSU. The amperage is more like 500 mA (milli-amps). And how the front panel USB ports are connected will also determine whether or not it is borrowing from the same 500 mA per port or on its own line.
