Can you look at the circuit board containing the USB and lights from your case? It is usually on the behind the front panel of the case. Examine for damage such as cracked or lose solder joints, burns or detached wires. If that all looks fine, examine the front motherboard header and look for missing pins. Also try downloading the latest USB drivers.

Look on your motherboards website and go to the support/download section.

Thanks for the suggestions, they led me into my BIOS where I enabled Windows 8 Fast Boot which had an option to enable USB Support.

It's fixed :)
