    Hi

    Check that they are actually connected to the motherboard as some makers dont always connect all USB ports that are built into the case.

    What Windows version you using and do you get any error messages when plugging in a USB Pen or Drive into those ports?

    Is it the same two that dont work or with removing other USB pens and hardware form other portsis that they work? This would signify a lack of power from PSU
