Specs:
MB: ASRock Fatal1ty Z97 Killer
CPU: Intel i7 4790K
GPU: MSI Geforce GTX 960
RAM: 16gb Gskill DDR3 1866
SSD x 2
750W power supply
DVD optical drive
Card reader with USB 3.0.
USB 2.0 headers on my Mobo are no longer working (two total). I recently installed an Intel AC-7260 wireless card with bluetooth (requires header for bluetooth functionality), worked fine. Installed a card reader (required a header as well, in addition to the ports on the front- so I bought the NZXT IU01 USB expansion, worked like a charm). I noticed BT no longer working. USB Card Reader no longer working. Seems to have power, my portable HDD indicator light flashes briefly when plugged in. Summary:
- USB 2.0 headers not working.
- USB 2.0 ports on the rear work fine.
- USB 3.0 ports all work fine.
- Tried both devices on both headers, nothing.
I'm baffled as to what I should do next. I'm no computer genius, but I know my way around my computer. Numerous searches reveal nothing useful. I tried to retrace my steps, and the only thing I can think is I had to rearrange the power connections inside my case so everything would reach, but the USB 2.0 headers are powered by the main MB 24 pin power connector, or so I thought. Anything I am missing here?
