Could be wired wrong but sometimes this can cause an issue for your motherboard.

You'll need your motherboard layout diagram then it's just a case of matching the usb wires to the correct pins. Or if you have all the usb wires in a single connection block. Making sure the block goes on the pins the right way around. It's not that difficult. Whip off your cover and have a look.

just took the cover off, and it looks like the usb ports are all in one block that has been soldered (sp) to the motherboard

No the block connector will be just pushed onto some pins. You will need a diagram for your motherboard. The block itself once removed should have some writing on to tell you which each pin is or where the usual layout starts.

Did you get a cd with the motherboard but usually there is a manual and drivers on it?.

Honestly m8, if you really don't have a clue I'd just go back to your m8 and ask him to sort it. If he built it then he should be able to have alook or fix it.
