What's the problem with the front USB ports? No detection? No power? USB 1.1 mode only?

If it's no power, check the poly fuses on the motherboard near the USB headers. Some mobos will also use MOSFETs to switch power to USB ports. If that's the case, check that those are getting power too. Last but not least, check the PSU. Bad caps on the 5V or 5VSB rail could still allow the PC to work, but make too much noise for USB devices to work.

if worse comes to worse, you can get a USB card, some even have headers
