Hi all,
I recently put together the build I was asking about in this post: http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/answers/id-1881241/build-input.html
The build went fine with the exception of one issue, I connected the case USB2 to this header on the mobo: https://www.dropbox.com/s/v94qjje85fsz5s0/20131124_152024.jpg
But when I connected devices (which previously worked in other slots) to this port they became completely unusable on the new PC and other PCs. It first happened with a USB mouse (previously worked in other PCs and is now completely dead) and now it has happened with an External HDD (which is full of very important documents In hindsight I shouldn't have plugged it in after it fried a mouse but at this point I had no idea the mouse not dying was connected to the USB port).
I've removed/re-installed and updated the USB drivers but this did not have any effect.
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am beginning to get very concerned. Is it possible that the USB slot fried my devices?
Please help
