Chasis USB ports - Don't Work

jrwagh333 · 6 Oct 2008 at 11:09

Hi i have a CoolerMaster Stacker 832.

I am using an Asus M3A32-MVP DELUXE MotherBoard

I have plugged in correctly I have triple checked. None of the front panel USB connectors are working. Any suggestions?

IIRC cables to motherboard's pin headers have connectors also in other ends so you should check that those haven't gotten loose.

so the ones that come out of the chassis?

I think he means check that the USB cables from the case are connected to the correct pins on the motherbaord and are making a good connection.

Check also your USB controller.

CLick Start, Run and type in devmgmt.msc

Ckec for any exclaimations marks under the USB controller (last in list).

Yep, IIRC I/O ports are in top structure of the case and there's some way for opening it.
(there has been few case with those cables loose in CM Forums)

i ahve had the issue before with trying to strech the wire too far while cable tidying and pulled it out the front connector, not noticing until you finish your whole pc and then cant get to it is fsking annoying lol

do you know how to open up the front of the case?

Have you tried using the same connectors for the back of the case USB connector?

i have plugged devices on the back of the motherboard and these work fine.

I then try and plug the same devices in the front panel connectors and i dont get the "Du-Ding!" sound
