Eureka, that last post about loose connectors finally tipped me off. When I installed a wireless LAN card in the Shuttle, there is a header behind the card that got disconnected. This blew away the front USB ports and also the audio on both the front and the back. Now it is reseated and everything works. The Shuttle is so small, it is easy to dislodge things.
Comcast woes continue
If you plug a different network card into the Comcast modem, Comcast, unlike AT&T does detection of cards. This forces a complete reinstall and reauthentication. Means that you should make sure to keep your subscriber ID and your work order number around for a long time. You also need to keep the magic installation CD somewhere close. What a hassle. It also requires three reboots even on Windows XP. Sigh.
