Also, most cheaper systems seem to use unshielded cables to connect the motherboard header to the hardware on the front of the case. It is possibly just picking up enough electrical noise to cause operational problems. Maybe even moving the internal cable, re-routing it differently if possible might change the situation. This is probably also why the rear ports, which are mounted direct on the motherboard, are more reliable.

on all points.
Bad or noise sensitive hardware. If your MoBo has another connector for panel ports, swap things and see if the problem moves or stays.
