Please can any one tell me, how can I drive 5v,2A from USB port.

Actually I wont wants to use any external adaptors in my USB driven system.

I wouldn't pull that much power through the mother board. Instead look online or at a local computer store for a power adapter that lets you run external power for a disk drive. This will put the demand on the power supply cabling. It will give you external +5 and +12 (useful for antenna amps). Also the molex plugs (even ifg you must buther up adapters) are reasonably cheap
