try going to the manufacturer's website and see if you can download the manual for the motherboard.

The manual is not a problem it is here http://support.asus.com/download/dow...N8X-E%20Deluxe
The card reader looks to be made by emagic here http://www.emagictech.com.tw/
But they have no info as to how to hook it up.
It should have one connector for each, USB for the card reader, a plug to plug in to you audio port, and fire wire plug.
