Belkin Cardbus USB2 adaptors too hot.

Hi,
Anyone else noticed Belkin Cardbus USB2 adaptors run extremely hot ?
I've been having weird things happen
umass errs, g_vfs_done()da0a[WRITE(offset=....,
length=131072)]error = 5 first errors after a 66G write,
subsequent errors after just 1G more, (in retrospect when
truly hot)
I've built a break out box to check Voltages & Current
delivered into external USB2 to IDE enclosures,
just bought another new 250G IDE for another enclosure,
lots of enclosures & usb2 hub power blocks tried, then I
remembered this card used to run hot on FreeBSD-6, in this
Toshiba Satellite S5100-603, & I think BSD + this laptop
cooked my brothers identical Belkin card too last year.
The laptop BTW:

So 2 things:
FreeBSD-7.1-RELEASE is still cooking by default.
I recall cardbus can run at 2 different voltages ?
Well we need to change something to detect that.
Anyone want to throw me an RTFM URL start point for reading ?
(Sorry to ask here & not read first, trying to catch a boat ASAP).
Cheers,
Julian
