I do not know exactly the issue but it appears that ports are not getting any power (according to multimeter) But when I striped it down and rebuilt it the ports worked that time. So I have a spare PS3 mobo and was wondering the first approach I should do, perhaps check some caps/resist near the USB plugs (which are not bent btw). Any suggestions would be helpful, maybe someone has resolved this odd issue before. Hoping its not firmware related.

I am testing with a different mobo atm (same model etc) but the BR-Drive may not accept this different motherboard (once updated, dialup speed). But this may help some people in future whom loose usb port power.
