Antec P-160 USB Pissing me off!

Ok I have got so frustrated with this front usb. I have already ordered a replacement front swivel mount because i screwed it up rewiring the usb. THe problem is if i like for example hook in my Sandisk Cruzer which is usb 2.0 it will say device not recognized. But if i hook in my old camera it works just fine. It is usb 1.0. I am so mad that i even went to the trouble of posting a picture.

Here are the cables that are going for the usb. Mind you there are only 7. There should be 8.

You have the following colors:

1. orange
2. Black
3. Green
4. Red
5. White
6. Grey
7. Yellow

This is how they are arranged at the moment. This is how it came from Antec.

None-White-Yellow-Grey
Red-Green-Orange-Black

This is what it says on antecs FAQ

What is the Firewire and USB pin configuration for P160?
USB pin1 VCC red pin2 VCC - pin3 D- green pin4 D- white pin5 D+ orange pin6 D+ yellow pin7 ground black pin8 ground black pin9 block pin10 empty

But that is not how its wired.

Can someone help me out? I am posting pictures too in a couple seconds.

pcman,

I have an Antec P160 and the usb connector in your image matches mine. I have an MSI board with usb header as follows:

Pin 1 VCC Note: on my board Pin 1 is below Pin 2. Connect red wire from Antec
Pin 2 VCC conncector to Pin 1 of header.

Pin 3 USB0-
Pin 4 USB1-

Pin 5 USB0+
Pin 6 USB1+

Pin 7 GND
Pin 8 GND

Pin 9 no pin
Pin 10 USBOC

The Antec connector connected to my motherboard header without problem. I think early version of the P160 were not USB2 but later versions like mine were. Hope this helps you.
