OK i'm trying to figure out how the heck to do this cause the name don't match right... The cable coming off the 2 usb port from the front of my case are labled like this

Cable 1:
VCC1
Data -1
Data +1
GND 1

Cable 2:
VCC2
Data -2
Data +2
GND 2

Now here's the pin layout on my mobo...

Pin 1: VREG_FP_USBPWR0
Pin 3: USB_FP_P0-
Pin 5: USB_FP_P0+
Pin 7: GND
Pin 9: Key

Pin 2: VREG_FP_USBPWR0
Pin 4: USB_FP_P1-
Pin 6: USB_FP_P1+
Pin 8: GND
Pin 10: USB_FP_OC0

Here's how I'm guessing it goes but i'm not 100%

Pin 1: VREG_FP_USBPWR0 = VCC1
Pin 3: USB_FP_P0- = Data -1
Pin 5: USB_FP_P0+ = Data +1
Pin 7: GND = GND 1
Pin 9: Key = Not used

Pin 2: VREG_FP_USBPWR0 = VCC2
Pin 4: USB_FP_P1- = Data -2
Pin 6: USB_FP_P1+ = Data +2
Pin 8: GND = GND 2
Pin 10: USB_FP_OC0 = Not used

Any help would be awesome!

ya i tihnk you have it right.

but best way to find out is to try it. if it isn't right then the worst thing that happens is that it just doesn't work.
no biggy, just swap some around and try again. :)
