Hi,

just setup my new rig...

despite making sure 3 times the case connectors are plugged in the power light and the hdd light do not come on....however the reset and power buttons work...

also i have connected front x which means if i connect the earphone + mic leads from front x i cant connect the case connector for earphone n mic to the mobo same with the 1394 connector at front of case.....can someone clarify if this is true? or am i being a wally?

please help

thanks in advance...
 
thanks for the help on question 1 will try it out asap currently the writing on each case connector is facing upwards towards the hsf is that right? or **** they be facing downwards??....

question 2:

with the dfi sli dr mobo u get front x, front x comes with same connections as which are on the front of the case...i.e. 1394 connection.....

so as the mobo only has 1 1394 socket on the mainboard where i can plug the wires from either front x or the front of the case one set of connections will be left out....either the ones of front x or the front of the case.....


thanks mate
 
right well unplugged all case connectors and reconnected them....the writing on them is facing upwards towards the cpu lets say....

also the front usb case connectors do not work either....so i unplugged them and ensured they are all facing upwards which means the writing on them is facing the cpu....

is this correct?
 
Yaay the case power light and hdd light is working :D

yep front x is easy but I just wanted to double check its impossible to connect all connections on front x and front case connectors to mobo...

re front case connectors....

if you look at the lian li pc7 installation guide and the mobo manual they contradict eachother because

for : 1394 connection case guide shows these wires which are correct a)shield b)VP c)VP d)TPB- e)TPB+ f)VG g)VG h)TPA- i)TPA+ now of course I have these wires as im looking at them....however the mobo manual shows you where to insert them these wires but some are named differently : a)tpa+ b)tpa- c)ground d)ground e)tpb+ f)tpb- g)12+ fused h) 12+ fused i)key j)ground....

as you can see the mobo manual shows c, d, g, h and j which are not apart of the case connectors...perhaps they are using diff names....

can someone kindly elaborate or help me.....im baffled....

thanks
 
not having any success with the front case connections....i followed the mobo manual and the case manual and just dont know where i am going wrong.......

helppppppppppppppppppppppppppp?

thanks
