I just bought a new case and I'm using an old mobo (just for now). Problem is, my case has a bunch of stuff that needs juice (two led's, power button, reset button). Problem is, the power cables hooked up to those leds and buttons have two prongs (each) that need to be connected to the mobo but my mobo doesn't have any two prong connectors. Rather, it has a bunch of three prong connectors (like the one the fan is connected to for power). Any idea? Can i connect the two prong led's and buttons to the three prongs?

Thanks

What is the old mobo from? It sounds like some non-standard connection. It might work, but you need to know what pins to short out and all.

Do you have the original case? Check out how the power buttons and all originally connected.

The mobo was pulled from a Presario 5000. The original case had all the LED's, Power, and Reset all attaced to one 20 pin connector. I guess this mobo wasn't meant to me pulled (AHHHH). Any advice?
