Hi, Any one who can help may need to look up specs on thios mobo. It's a Soyo SY-P4VTE. I know WHERE the connect to the mobo, but the pin config on the board is different than the config on the case. Here is what the pins for the USB on the mobo looks like: 2.....10 1.... here is what the case USB plug looks like: |--|Ground = all by itself |--|Ground \ |--|USB1+ | |--|USB1- | all connected |--|VCC / It doesn't seem like the pinouts on the board match the pinouts on the plug that has all four contacts connected. Is that plug supposed to be split into four? and why does each port have TWO grounds? It seems wierd....I'm stuck... Thanks

The USB pin out info is in your manual... Asus A7N8X-X 2500+ Sempron @ 2100mhz 10.5 x 200mhz @ 1.80v 512mb PC3200 Ti4200/8X 128mb WDC 60GB

Jam, I know, but the manual says different things than what the paper that came w/ the case says...

I realize that, but you should still be able to figure them out. Ground is ground, so that shouldn't be a problem. Look for + or -, 0 or 1, something like that. Asus A7N8X-X 2500+ Sempron @ 2100mhz 10.5 x 200mhz @ 1.80v 512mb PC3200 Ti4200/8X 128mb WDC 60GB

on the cable, what is VCC? and why is there TWO grounds for EACH port, aking a total of FOUR grounds for TWO ports? Here is what the manual says: Pin1=VERG_FP_USBPWR0 Pin2=VERG_FP_USBPWR0 Pin3=USB_FP_P0 Pin4=USB_FP_P1 Pin5=USB_FP_P0+ Pin6=USB_FP_P1+ Pin7=Ground Pin8=Ground Pin9=KEY Pin10=USB_FP_OC0 That is why I'm confused...

vcc is 5volts pin1- vcc VERG_FP_USBPWR0 pin2- vcc VERG_FP_USBPWR0 pin3- -d USB_FP_P0 pin4- -d USB_FP_P1 pin5- +d USB_FP_P0+ pin6- +d USB_FP_P1+ pin7- gnd Ground pin8- gnd Ground pin9- key pin10- USB_FP_OC0 most boards only have 8pins for usb but some have 10pins david

It is a real pain isn't it. I wish they would standardize this connection. Double check the wiring. No harm can come if wrong, until you connect a USB device. Then it can damage the device, or blow the controller.
