I have a Dell Dimension 4600 Pentium computer (4 months old). I just bought a 128 meg. Flash drive. The back USB ports on the computer recognize the flash drive, but the two front USB ports do not. I posted this problem on a Dell forum but the only reply was that maybe the cables were never hooked up to the front ports. I removed the side cover last night, but really could not see much. Will try again tonight to see if there are any un-attached cables. Any one else out there with this problem ???
