A8N-E, 3gig memory, and usb?

I was running my A8N-E on 2 1/2 gig sticks while waiting for
my 2 1 gig sticks to get RMAed. I got the 2 gig back, and
decided to put all 4 sticks of memory in the system. I
ran memtest86 with no problems, but now the computer is
complaining about USB devices not responding and the
scanner no longer works :-(.

Is there some problem with > 2 gig of memory and the
onboard usb?

Or did I just manage to dislodge one of the front panel
to motherboard usb cables when putting the memory back?

Just thought I'd query for know problems before opening
up the box again...

Since this may be a memory problem and I WAS able to get the operating system installed only after removing 2 of my 4 DIMMs I returned the memory voltage and the SPP voltage to the auto values and first removed one set of DDR2 memory and then the other, cycling both 4 Gig sets through first slots zero & one and then slots two & three. ...
