Becky,
    Bills are worse than taxes, but they both seem to be doing well. 
lol

    If you can move the USB devices to the slots in a card below, we're 
probably better targetting those slots in the card instead of the ones 
already in use.  The mainboard USB ports are most likely an older version of 
the USB standard (1.1), while the card may have been added to provide slots 
with the newer 2.0 standard, which runs many, many times faster.  The trick 
now is to discuss the best way to route USB cables from the front panel 
connector out the back of the case to these ports.  I know you will at least 
need some kind of extention cable to make it long enough.  You will also 
need a hole that's large enough for the USB connector to pass through.  If 
your case does not already have such an opening, one example is shown in the 
link below.
