Front USB 3.0 not working

Hello,

 

I recently bought a new case to go with my oversized Graphics Card. Said case now has a two USB 3.0 and two USB 2.0 Ports on the Front.

The Problem is that the USB 3.0 Ports don't seem to work, whereas the USB 2.0 Ports work without a problem. As I got several Flashdrives with LEDs on them, I can atleast say that the Ports get Power. I already checked if the USB 3.0 Cable is correctly connected with the USB 3.0 Header of my Motherboard.

 

Any idea on what's going on and how to fix it?

 

PC Specs:
GPU: RX480 Red Devil
CPU: Intel i5-4460
Mainboard: ASRock H81M
Case: Coolermaster N400
OS: Windows 10

Did you make sure that the cenector is plugged in the right way, and that you have the correct drivers, you could test and it and try to put data trough it if not tell the case manufacturer, unless you bought it for a retailer then tell them and you should be able to get a replacement or your money back, hope you can fix it

If properly connected and drivers are installed all should be good. So check this.

Pretty much checked all of this. I'll look at the connector again tomorrow (01:13am over here).

 

As there were no USB 3.0 Drivers on the Support CD of my Mainboard I checked on Asrocks Homepage, where I actually found some Drivers. But it seems like these don't work with Win 10, as they are listed unser Win 8. I was able to install said drivers, but nothing really happened.

 

Here are the Drivers I found: http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/H81M/?cat=Download

I checked everything once again. I found some new drivers for the USB 3.0 Controller, which as before, didn't do anything.

LED's on my Flashdrives still light up. I also rechecked if the cable is connected to the Mainboard. It's definitely connected correctly.

 

I'm really thinking about the problem being the cases fault. But as the Ports are on the same board, why would the USB 2.0 work but the USB 3.0 won't.

 

If it's any help, here's a pic of my Device Manager:

Also, here's a pic of the USB Settings in my BIOS:
