No software.
Wired USB port troubles are usually a problem with the layout - there are several "standard" layouts that don't match, or if they finish in individual pin connections, there are a whole new set of ways to get it wrong - some of them could also do damage!
There may be a motherboard jumper to enable the port set, or to switch a set from the backplate to the pins - but with only two backplate and a header, this is unlikely.
In some instances, apart from the 2 sets of 4, there may be an extra wire (chassis ground) but a different function on the extra pin - in whaich case, leave it unconnected

No software needed like Matth said. I'd check if you put the wires in right. Check the way you put the wires in against what it says in the motherboard manual.
USB might be disabled in the Bios too.

hmm, i cant find specific usb drivers for you, two things you can try
http://www.asus.com.tw/support/downl...e=P4B&Type=All
and get the Intel(R) Chipset Software Installation Utility V5.02.1003. run it and see if if updates anything
other thing is
http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com
id do this anyway since its good to update it, and look out for anything usb related
hope something works for you :-) |

Do the backplate USB ports work ok?
If they work, then the software/driver side is 100% ok, if they don't, then the software/drivers side is where the problem is.
Just looked at a manual download - implementation is a 4pin side by side, SAME way - if the rear panal mports work, then double check your wiring ... For one port, V+. D-, D+ 0v addjacent, the other port running the same way
