Based on another message respecting power to the USB key I inserted it into a port located at the back of the host and it was recognized immediately. I have no idea why it is not picked up when placed into on of the front panel usb ports but it matters not so long as I can mount it.
Check BIOIS setup and see if all the on-board usb ports are enabled. Also, front-panel ports usually have a small cable from the mainboard port to the panel connector. It may have become dislodged or be reversed if the connector is not keyed.
Thanks for the help.
