Now I'm having trouble installing the front I/O ports to the mbob and the power and LEDs. My case and mobo dont seam to match. I can give the names of the cables and stuff and hopefully you guys can tell me what goes where... Also I dont seem to have any audio CD cables. Are they necessary?

I think I've got everything sorted out except the front speakers and firewire. Nothing matches the mobo manual, not even the number of wires with them.
I still have 5 questions:
1. Which way do the conectors go, should the triangle mark be on the right or left?
2. Should I just leave alone the micro ATX power thingy and not plug it into anything?
3. The 5v/12v power on my mobo can be suplied from a molex conector and a floppy conector. Which one should I use?
4. I dont have the 4 pin CD audio cable. Is this needed?
5. I dont have any mic conectors for a signal beeps, do I switched the buzzer jumper on. Is this ok?
Also I have a fan right next to my RAM that should blow in line with it. Is this good enough active cooling if I decide to up the voltage? I think that fan may be an exhoust fan though.

1. Prolly not
2. Default
3. User preference
4. Dont worry about them
5. No
6. SPDI/F cables aka TOSLINK
7. Unless im misunderstanding you .. no. The karajan connects to the mobo
8. You dont have to do anything with them if you dont want/cant. If you can, connect your front panel connectors wto to them
9. Plug them wherever is convenient
Naturally, dont plug them into the RAID controller if you dont need/want to (generally people seem to get more performance from the non-RAID ones)10. See #9
11. Something you wont be using (very few people use them really)
12. Depends on the fans. The fan connectors on the mobo are for fans that connect to 3-pin power sources
13. What about it?
14. Yes you need the 24p, atx12, 4p molex, and a fdd power
15. You connect the jumpers from the front of your case to them so that the LEDs and buttons work
Thats so that the mobo doesnr short circuit itself
Yeah its a lot more exciting when you are putting that kinda force on a plastic lever
Its fine. No point in removing it if yer using the stock cooler anyways.
Trial and error, there's only two possibilities
What microATX thingy?
According to the manual .. both.
No
User preference
Probably not if you're running VX. They pretty much need a good fan pointed at them.
Again, yes.
Cuz we dont live here (also, not to be mean or anything ... im glad yer putting it altogether and all .. but it IS covered in the manual ... not that i dont mind answering but rather that, if yer so anxious to get an answer right away, the manual is there
). The product website is here
