a bit off topic, but ya gotta remeber all cases and mobos are different and manufacturers dont usually talk to each other to sort little propblems like this out, yeh sure they follow the ATX standdard but thats not entirley bullet proof.

On my Abit SG-72 mobo and the soprano from Tt i think it was the power switch. Although there was 2 cables going into the header thingies, there where three connectors but my moo only has 2, so i had to literally get the cutters and rip the thing apart to get to these pins just to solder them to the board, cos there was no way 3 pins was ganna bend round to fit onto 2 pins worth of space on the mobo, lol

*EDIT* - just read the last bit of praetors post about there being a space inbetween, thats what the actual connector from the case switch was like on mine.
