Weird USB Prob

I have this really strange USB device problem. I have an Antec Performance Plus 1080AMG case which has two USB ports on the front.

My keyboard, mouse, and printer function fine if I connect them to those USB ports. However, if I connect my Kingmax USB2.0 key drive into one of the ports on the front of the case, the little red LED on it lights up but no drive is detected in Windows (XP).

When I plug in the key drive into a port on the back of my PC, it works!

I've checked all the cabling and connections within the case, installed the latest mobo chipset drivers and windows drivers and the damn thing still wont get detected on the front USB ports, wtf? I don't know whether this is a problem with the front USB ports or the key drive itself. Has anyone had a similar problem?

...and no it ain't a power problem, I have an Antec TruePower 430 Watt PSU.
 
I had the same problems on my old Mobo (Tyan Trinity KTA-???). I just didnt mess with it and when I got my new mobo, it works!

I would say check to see if it works on other comps but I just read it works on the back..Sorry bro!
