Where does the PowerLED cable go ?

kiis102 · 05-08-2006, 10:30 PM

Hey guys,

Im building my own computer right now and hit a little snag, basically the mobo i got is the 'Asus A8R-MVP Skt939 Xpress 200 crossfire' and the Case i have is 'XION Solaris Silver (Blue LED) Steel Mid Tower Gaming Case'

The problem is i dont know where im meant to put the PowerLED cable ?? This is my mobo - http://www.xbitlabs.com/images/mainb...-mvp/board.jpg and heres the cables from my case - http://img285.imageshack.us/img285/1278/49mv.jpg Where do i put the PowerLED cable ?

Do i connect it to the PSU? The only slot on the mobo it goes is the EZ_PLUG thing but the manual says its for SLI graphic cards.

there should be some pins usually in the bottom right hand corner of the mobo (probbaly a group of 9 or 10), look at your manual and it should point out where to put it.

not the those cables, the White molex connector

All those little plugs need to be plugged in a special arrangement somewhere around here on your mobo. The places where they all plug into should be detailed in your manual, in fact I found the piccy in the manual here (page 50 of the pdf I think).

GIve me two seconds, downloading manually from Asus at a staggreing 1kb seconds, well maybe not that bad but its slow

Where is the molex coming from? the case? if so then hook it up to any connector spare form the PSU, is it a front fan or light?

LOL, well yes than need plugging into a molex, though I'm not sure why the Power LED bit isn't just the same as the others...
