That can be a problem for some devices that you want to connect to it. I'd be trying some tests by connecting two computers together, and seeing what you get. Or plugging in an old modem, and doing the old ATI command tests, etc. -- (This computer runs FC7, my others run FC4, FC5 & FC6, in case that's important to the thread.)
