P4S533 and USB front ports problem!

[Obelix]

Hi. I have the P4S533 and unable to make the USB front port of my CoolMaster case to work.
The USB2 and USB3 connectors on the board seem to work only with the included usb adapter
to be mounted on the back of the computer. I use the usb compact flash card reader and it
works fine from the back but not to the front of the case which connects to USB3 connector.
Does anyone know what's wrong?

2 guesses here:

1. is the addition USB enabled in the BIOS?

2. maybe the pin out doesn't match the connectors on the case

I'm not sure what's wrong yet, but I know of the problem. I put my 1.6A P4 in with my new P4S533 and hooked up my Front USB connectors. Everything worked except Secondary IDE. I thought I had a bad controller, but then read the forum. Unplugged the USB and everything is working well (so far). I'll let you know what else I find. Fell free to email me at sanwa@qwest.net .
