How can get a front usb

[ripken204]

i want to get the ASUS p5ad2-e mobo and i dont think it has any front usb ports and my case has connections for 2 usb in the front, how would i be able to do this if my mobo doesnt come with fron usb?

I look at your M/B and it has ubs in the back not the front but there should a spot to wire the case ubs ports to the M/B. Hope that helps you. puke:

Look in your motherboard's manual. It will tell you.

IF case has front USB this is a start.. You will need to take the leads from the usb and connect them to the usb just follow the picture on page 2-29 article 9 make sure you have everything on the right post..

usb

your usb connections on the front of your case should have a wire coming from them. It should have something like a 7 or 9 pin(4/5pins over 3/4 pins I can't remember) female connector on the end. Your board should have some usb connectors that are 7 pin male sticking somewhere. looks like this :::. or else this ::::.

and the case i will be getting has cables for the usb as far as i can see from the pic but i dont know what the connection is like on it, thx for ur help tho, now i know that i can have front usb.
