I just bought and build a new computer and was having some issues with the front panel (power button, reset button, usb ports, headphone and microphone jack etc).
I fiddled around and got the power button to work which is obviously the most important. But nothing else works. The two usb ports, headphone jack, and microphone jack don't work.
I tried following teh instructions about what to plug in where as far as those small wires coming out of the front panel and onto the mobo. However, given my plugins I couldn't follow the directions. One of my connectors was only supposed to be a two pin connection but was actually a 3 pin connection (the middle pin connection was empty). Because of this things were not able to fit where they were supposed to go so I had to play around with it to get what I could working.
