Sounds fried to me.

Sounds like your motherboard shorted it out. Try another (OLD) USB stick. If that's ok then it could have just been that drive that was faulty.

Is this an issue with the moutherboard - if so is there away to resolve it without having to contact the manufacture and getting a new one -_-

Do you think i should concider changing the 8 pin power connector to the 4 pin!?

LOL god NO!

The 8 pin has nothing to do with it!

Try contacting your motherboard manufacturer and do an RMA, or wherever you bought the board from (if under a year old).
