I can understand a front fan but "front door", ... I'm not sure. And, why are are talking about a USB cord? What does that have to do with your fan? If you're looking at a cord marked USB, then you're not looking at your fan cord. Do you have some documentation for your motherboard which shows various connectors (USB, fans, sound cables, etc.)?

I read through all of the documentation that came with the mobo and nothing speaks of this wireThat wire you have there is for the USB ports of the Front of you Case, you mobo manual does not speak of it because its part of your case. You should find in your mobo manual a diagram that has a map of your mobo and you should see a set of Pins labeled usb or front panel, and thats where that cable plugs in as for the fan you should have another cable . with 2 or 3 small wires going to the fan , it will either be one of the LARGE power connectors like what go's in to the hard drive, or it will be a small white connector like the one on the CPU fan, and there should a spot on you mother Bord for that to plug intoPanboy thanks I did locate that 3 prong wire you spoke of and found where it plugs in on the mobo. The plugin was located on the other side of my processor and it was concealed by the huge cpu cooler I have so it was hard to spot! Thanks guys for your help much appreciated!
