Creative Audigy 2zs + Front Audio

mpisarcik · 11-22-2005, 07:51 PM

Hello everyone. I'm new to the PC world, but I have a question. I bought a Soundblaster 2zs and wanted to hook up the front audio to the white header on the top of the card. I did some searching one day on the net and found somebody's blog of how to make your own wire that connects the front audio to your case headers, seeing as the white jack on the soundcard has smaller than standard pins.

I ordered all the parts from digikey.com like the blog specified, but my hard drive crashed, and i lost all of my bookmarks. I don't know how to put the thing together now.

Does anyone know what blog i am talking about? I found it on some obscure computer forum, and I can't find it again.

Any help would be apprectiated. Thanks.

No, thats not what im talking about.

Im referring to this part of the sound card:

There was an internet site that showed viewers how to make a cable that connects this to your front audio headers with parts from digikey.com.

Thanks for the reply, though.

I know this sounds dumb, i just really want to find that site so i can make this cable. Thanks for the help.
