@medigit
take ur machine to your dealer and ask him to fix the ports in the front panel. normally 2 usb ports can be fixed on the front panel by attaching the ports with the help of wires which are connected to the front panel usb receivers on the motherboard.

check your motherboard diagram for more info. all intel board have this diagram which is very helpful.

the whole setup will not cost more than 100/- bucks i suppose.

Mr. medigit it seems to me that you are completely new to this. By default if you have space for USB Ports and Audio Ports on your front panel of your Cabinet , they come attached.

But as per your query, it seems they are missing, right. So, u have two solutions now.

1. Just go to the market ( depends upon where you live ), and purchase a two USB Port , now this can have combined single SOCKET or Separate SOCKETS (again depends upon your cabinet style) - Rs. 200 max. should cost you.

2. Alternatively get a USB HUB (4 Ports) and convert your existing port ( any one ) to 4 ports. Cost you - Rs 100 max.

For the installation of 1 above, you will have to simple fix the port into your cabinet and take the wire and put it in the USB1 or USB2 (front panel) headers of your motherboard, refer to your motherboard manual for more help on this.
