  2. I would like to win a keyboard so I can literally give it to my friend who has super ghetto components and is too broke to buy nicer ones. And I didn't get him a birthday present yet LOL.
  3. Hi, sorry for the super late response but yes. I contacted Fractal via email since their phone number wasn't working for whatever reason. Anyways... they asked me for my case SN and sent me replacement front USB promptly. They work great now.
  4. It's so pretty... @_@ I want it I want it I want it I want it
  5. Favorite thing has to be the custom keyboard sizes and all dat laser autofocus.
  6. Yeah, I already tried reinstalling drivers many times. Anyways, I found out what was wrong. The front panel ports themselves are defective. Some of them only work when plugging in the USB in very, very slowly. I'll contact Fractal to see if they can send me a new front panel. Thanks for helping out.
  7. Hi guys, I just finished my first build about 2 days ago. I just noticed that one of the two front USB 3.0 ports on my Fractal Design R4 case does not recognize USB 3.0 devices. The devices are able to get power, but Windows 8.1 does not see any drives connected. I've tested this on a Sandisk Extreme USB 3.0 flash drive and a WD Passport. Both of these devices are formatted to be in ExFat. When plugging in a USB 2.0 flash drive in the same port, Windows recognizes it immediately. I am extremely confused on why it is acting this way. The other USB 3.0 port works just fine. My build: Case - Fractal Design R4 Mobo - ASUS Sabertooth Z97 MK1 CPU - Intel Core i7 4790 3.6GHz GPU - EVGA GTX 780 Superclocked w/ ACX cooler 3GB DDR5 RAM - 8GB x2 GSkill Sniper Series 1866MHz DDR3 CPU Cooling - Noctua NH-U14S SSD - PNY XLR8 240GB ODD - LG Bluray PSU - CM V850 Here are some things I already attempted: Restarting (lol it was worth a shot) Update USB drivers with ones from the mobo page Reformatting my USB 3.0 flash drive Reset to everything to default in UEFI Update UEFI Taking out the USB 3.0 front panel wire and plugging it back in I think the wire itself might be faulty but I wanted to see if anyone knew how to solve my problem before I ask Fractal to RMA my case (in which case I really hope they can just send me a new wire because I don't want to take everything out...). Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
