If the M-board has the capability there is a setting in device manager (when you get there, go up to view and check "show hidden devices") for turning that feature on and off. I can't remember the name of the device right off the top of my head, but it will usually be the only one with a red mark next to it (if your running XP). Right click and select enable.
