Connecting Case to Mobo

Im having trouble connecting my mobo to my case, I mean I can mount it on but plugging in everything is the problem. I can connect the PSU fine but its the other wires within my case which I have a problem with connecting. The manual doesnt specify exactly which wire to put in and which way to put it in. Can anyone help me?

Well the manual will specify which wire to put where but there is the problem of which way to put that wire ... but you

Have a look at page17 in the manual
 
Page 17 tells me about the SLI setup and the power requirement. But i was ready the power requirement and i dont think i have enough Am's on the +12V cause it requires around 20 i believe and it has 18 so that might also be a problem, I already planned on getting a new PSU anyway.

The specs on the LOGISYS Computer PS500CLA 500W Power Supply - Retail should be good.

From what I was toldthe name of the wire usually faces the top of the case. Is that right?
 
The wires on your case are typicaly just the power light switches, and maybe usb ports. The m/b should have some designated pins (with little names written under them) saying things like restart, power led, etc. There sure to be listed in the manual somwhere, otherwise just look at the m/b w/ a flashlight and maybe a magnifying glass. These pins on my m/b are located at the bottom right corner under the ide cable connections, but may be located differently on yours.
 
Yea I already know about that page, but it doesnt help me much.
1. Look at page21 to see what goes where
2. On the pages following it, you'll have information about the individual sections as noted on page 21.
3. it doesnt help much how?
 
I got got my CPU fan the work, I dont know if anything else is working but ill look at it more when i get home from work.
 
Well the significant power connections on the mobo are ATX Main, ATX12 (both are power cables), the various fan connections and lastly the frontpanel connectors :)
 
I have a question about my case, isnt it suppose to come with the screw for my mobo too? i mean the ones that have another hole so I can elevate my mobo and than screw it in? cause if I am i dont have them and i never got them.
 
actually i found some, I think I have everything in correctly but how am I suppose to know if teh motherboard is operational? I know the CPU fan is.

By turning it on and observing what happens
