Stephen, most PC IO plates are removable, have been for well over 15 years. Once you remove the motherboard you simply stick your thumb on the interior side of the IO panel and pop it out the back. New mobos come with their own panel. They just pop in. They friction fit, having little nubs the size of a pin head, usually 2 on each side. You install it gently, pushing only on the outside edges until all the nubs have snapped in. Push in the middle and you may destroy it. they're pretty flimsy. -- Stan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
