Solve : New Motherboard Problem?

Answer»

I had purchased a PCChips P13G+ Motherboard product through Tigerdirect.com. Had no problems with it EXCEPT lining up with the Panel 1 CONNECTORS vs. the old ONES. My old motherboard had one row of 8 pin holes, 1 of which had no pin (4th pinhole in). From left to right it read POWER LED, HDD LED, DC S/W. I am not sure which is which, and which goes into the motherboard and could not find info on the website of PCChips (just have a picture of the PANEL 1). The actual power button had Red and Black wires coming from it, the hd led (I am 95% sure) has yellow and black wires, and the dc s/w (once again, 95% sure) has green and black wires.

The Panel 1 on the new motherboard has 2 rows of 5, the top right being the KEY (no pin).

The top row is labeled FP PWR/SLP + and FP PWR/SLP -, not sure if one of those original three connections goes here. Continuing on the top row is POWER SW + and POWER SW -, and from my understanding this is the main power supply and what I am assuming the RED wire goes to the + and the black goes to the -.

On the bottom row, it starts with HD LED + and HD LED -, assuming I connect the yellow to the plus from the original motherboard as it was HDD and the black to the - here.
Continuing the bottom row, there is a RESET SW - and RESET SW +, dont THINK this one is used, but then again I have no idea on this one.
And the last pin on the bottom row says RSVD DNU and NOT A CLUE what this is.

Thanks for all the help, do not want to mess this one up.
