I have had this v. 1.x board for a while now. And all of the suddon the
extra usb stopped working. The two ports on the back work fine. But the
one with the connecter that allows you to connect a third and fourth (which
I had connected to the case front ports) stopped working. I thought it
might be the connectors or the wires so I purchased an Antec EasyUSB 5.25
connecter that fits into a front drive bay. I connected it and it doesn't
work either. I have USB enabled in BIOS and had these working until now. I
also just recently had a problem with my PSU so I replaced it but that was
after the USB stoped working.

Improperly wiring a USB port can result in permanent and fatal damage
to the motherboard, the USB port and ANY peripheral connected to the
motherboard.

It is imperative that the specific USB pin out assignment for your
motherboard make and model is obtained from the maker before any
attempt is made to connect the cable to the motherboard. Simply
knowing which pin is #1 is not enough information to properly wire a
USB port. Trial and error will surely result in the destruction of
the USB host controller, the computer system and/or any attached
peripheral. YOU MUST obtain the exact USB pin out assignment from
either the motherboard manual or the manufacturers web site.
