[QUOTE="tano_grasa, post: 1283789, member: 117781"] My trusted IT shop found the solution and I would like to share it for those who could encounter the same issue. First of all a brief explanation: I opened this thread because my old HTPC motherboard died and I could not get the iMon LCD display to work with an Asus H110i-Plus Mini-Itx 1151 motherboard I bought to replace the previous motherboard. The "new" motherboard is actually an old model which is currently out of stock (I found it on ebay). I bought an "osolete" motherboard because the LCD display is mounted on a Siverstone ML02 case which is not compatible with modern motherboards. I mounted the new motherboard and an Intel Core i3-6100 3.7 GHz processor I had from another machine, I connected everything, I installed Win10 and... the display was not properly working. I could turn the HTPC on and off but no more display function was supported. The IMON Manager wheel was yellow, not blue. I tried with Win7, same result. I took everything to my trusted IT shop and they found the problem: [U]The IMON LCD display seems to only [U]support an USB 2.0 connection.[/U][/U] No matter what the motherboard specs are, don't trust your BIOS when it says that the onboard USB 3.0 ports are backward compatible: the IMON display requires a native USB 2.0 connection to funcion properly. The people from the IT shop connected the display to a self-made USB 3.0 to USB 2.0 adapter and now everything works. The old piece of hardware works with an "obsolete" motherboard, an "obsolete" processor and a nearly antediluvian case. And all this with Win10. [/QUOTE]
