USB 3.0 devices can only be used as data storage only.
We strongly recommend that you connect USB 3.0 devices to USB 3.0 ports for faster
and better performance for your USB 3.0 devices.
Due to the design of the Intel
®
 9 series chipset, all USB devices connected to the 
USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 ports are controlled by the xHCI controller. Some legacy USB 
devices must update their firmware for better compatibility.
Multi-VGA output supports up to three displays under Windows
®
 OS environment, two 
displays under BIOS, and one display under DOS.
