installing front usb on mobo

[Patrickman]

Hey folks hoping some one can help me out

My motherboard is the Gigabyte GA-M68MT-S2. My power supply has vcc, port-, port+ and ground.

Where would they go in the motherboard?

Heres the manual http://download.gigabyte.eu/FileList/Manual/mb_manual_ga-m68mt-s2_v1.3_e.pdf


Heres the pic of what I think is the important bit

They are for front USB ports, you should have a cable from the front of your case with a cable that plugs into there (hopefully labelled USB). It will only go in one way, due to the missing pin. You don't need your power supply for the front USB port its takes power through the main motherboard power connector.

sorry i made a balls of my post

the vcc, port-, port+ and ground are from the front usb slots

 

[stulid]

VCC = pin1
Port- = pin3
port+ = pin5
GND = pin7

Its the four pins along the top of the connector.

Do the wires have any colours? (red, white, green, black)?

Well I have a USB connector in front of me.

Black, Green, White, Red

Thats how it looks connected to the four pins along the top as viewed from the bottom of the board.
