Front USB ports don't work (Chenming case)
Yeah, it's another typical case where the two front USB ports from the case have a 2x5 block connecter rather than individual pins, and of course the wiring for the connector does not match the pinout on my motherboard (an Asus A8V Deluxe). I can easily rearrange the pins in the block to match the motherboard pinout, but unfortunately the case didn't come with docs and I can't find anything online. The wires are all goofy colors, too (yellow, purple, etc., rather that the standard red, white, green and black), so I can't even get any clues from the wire colors. If you have a Chenming case and have figured out the front USB wiring, I'd certainly like to hear from you. Presumably, the Firewire connector wiring is also wrong, but I sure don't want to plug a Firewire device in to find out. sigh |

It's a Chenming CMUI-601AECB-U: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...atch&ATT=Cases I tried googling like a ut but still haven't found any info that tells me what each wire is for. |
