I accidently yanked on a usb cable pretty hard whilst it was plugged into the front of my p182, whilst plugged in.
Now my usb at the front no longer works.
Looking for a new front port thing.
Anyone know where i can get one from?
Thanks

Okay but these are pretty standard bits - just a cable that plugs into the motherboard. the other end has one or two USB prots with a mechanism allowing you to screw it to the chassis
Contact Antec and they will send you a replacement part under the warranty.Quote:

Oops just beaten ny TAKATK
yeah i tried that a few days ago, but they haven't got back to me yet.
Will give it another shot today.
Thanks
Have you heard back from Antec yet? I did exactly the same thing, well the girlfriend did, and they got back to me within the day and had the new part within 3 weeks as mine came from the states. If you did get the part, pretty easy to replace, hardest part is taking the front off of the case, but be careful as I took mine off again the other day and broke one of the clips :censored:
yeah heard from them today.Quote:

Can you offer any tips on how to replace the front header?
Thanks
Yeah sure. There are 6 clips and 4 guiding pins, 3 and 2 on each side. These are visible once both side panels are off. The clips are quite tight so need a little force, but as said before, be as careful as can be. Behind the power button there is a earth to the frame so unscrew this. And then it is just two screws connecting the header (and audio) to the front panel. Replace this and then clip back in carefully again, remembering to screw back in the earth.Quote:
