Find an option in the BIOS that has boot device order. Set removable media as the first device.

I have the same mobo, front usb connection should be on the bottom half of the mobo
u can't really misconnect it cuz there is 1 of the 10 blocks that doesn't have a hole
(iirc there are 3x USB connection on mobo & 1x 3.0 USB connection (this one has a special color))

And it's F11 for boot menu

the circled ones are all the ones i found and on the manual it says this for each of them

blue circled one:this connector allows you to connect IEEE1394 device via optional IEEE1394 bracket. No farking idea what that means lol
red circled one:this connector is compliant with inter I/O connectivity design guide is ideal for connecting high speed usb interface such as usb HDD digital cameras blah blah blah...shows a diagram

The usb plugs in the red one. It should even say JUSB1 underneath it.

CPU fan = fan on which u should connect the cpu fan (hurdur), if u plug the cpu fan to sysfan mobo will go in alarm

Sys fan = connect a fan to this (back, top, front, w/e)

JFP1 = main connector for hdd led, power switch, reset switch
JFP2 = secundary connecter, most often u will connect speaker (and power led) to this one
REMEMBER: black wire = negative

JUSB1 = for connecting front USB
IT IS RED, because it's different from JUSB2
JUSB1 supports the Super Charger technology (meaning the mobo can charge 1 device (atm) even while computer is in sleeping mode or turned off)
more about supercharger -> see manual & google

JUSB2 = for connecting the USB 3.0 card u got with the mobo
It's a big black connection, bigger than the standard JUSB

J1394_1 = connection for FireWire, most likely not applicable to ur case

JSP1 = S/PDIF connecter, most likely not applicable to ur case

JCOM = connection for serial devices, most likely not applicable to ur case

JAUD1 = connection for front panel audio, most likely u will be able to connect AC97 & HDAUDIO (2 connections on the same cable), connect the HD.

Don't mess with the jumpers >.>, they are fine as they are
Don't know if ur cpu is a k series, but if u want to use the OC genie II; u better look for
a more decent fan, cuz the standard cpu fan is crap.
It's just enough the cool the cpu as it is standard

Forgot to draw lines to JFP1/2, but u'll understand

like I said the pins are unique so you can't put it in the wrong one meaning if it fits it's in the right spot.

Your sound driver should have better software than windows to help you set them up. Otherwise google issues with your speakers and windows 7 (or w/e os you're using).
