Connecting the USB Ports
You will find a single 10-pin connector on a cable attached to the front USB ports. This Intel standard connector is keyed so that it can’t be accidentally reversed as long as it is connected to a proper Intel standard motherboard header. Connect the 10-pin connector to the motherboard headers so that the blocked pin fits over the missing header pin.
