Rewiring Motherboard Header Connections
There may come a time that you need to reconfigure the pin-out of a motherboard header connector.
Examples could be for your USB header, audio input header, or some other front panel connector such
as the Power Button connector.
Before performing any work, please refer to your motherboard manual or your motherboard
manufacturer's website to be sure of the pin-out needed for your connector. And we strongly
recommend making a notated drawing before beginning work so that you can recover if your work gets
disturbed.

out the pins from the USB plug.
