Not sure where to place this since the topic other laps. I figured Troubleshooting might be the best fit.

 

I have a new build using a micro ATX board (Gigabyte b550m ds3h). Got the board for free. The board only has 1 USB 2 header and I want 2, one for the front side USB and one for the power to my Wi-Fi/Bluetooth card. I bought 9pin USB Header Male 1 to 2 Female from Amazon but it doesn't seem to work. I could only get the Bluetooth power to connect. What do I need to use?

I have the same issue. I have two USB 2.0 headers on my motherboard. One is for front panel USB 2.0 and the other being used for something else - I cannot for the life of me remember what I plugged in there, but it must be important. So, I've got the Wi-fi/Bluetooth Card powered by the PCIe x1 slot, and the USB header would be used for data transfer for the Bluetooth Transceiver. I'm thinking I would just need a USB 2.0 header hub/splitter. I've not bother looking for one because I'm on a ethernet connection now and don't really use Bluetooth.
