Hi there, so I have been building a rather budget gaming PC. In order to do this, I got the motherboard and CPU of a lenovo thinkcentre M91P. I have been installing it into its new case along with the new GPU PSU HDDs etc. However, I am really struggling to connect those tiny cables labled 'Power LED +' 'Power LED -' 'Reset SWCH' and 'Power SWCH'. I can't for the life of me figure out the order they are meant to go in. I have searched for the mobo manual and I cannot find where it reveals what input sockets are for each of these connectors. Thanks for reading, and thanks in advance if you can help here.
Please help me finish building my PC.

And i understand the cables go here: I just dont know in what order.
Sorry could you explain the solution you say there. I am no good at these little connectors.

If the PSU is on and it is connected to the motherboard, if you touch the 2 pins where the Power Switch cable goes in with a screwdriver, the system will turn on. You can start touching them until the system turns on. The 2 pins you touched when the system turned on is the power switch

U needz cable management. Also the right angled end of a SATA cable connect to the motherboard should not. You want that end on the drive.
As far as the pin layout, you will need to
A)screw around and figure it out
or
B)contact the OEM of the motherboard (Lenovo) and ask for help. I doubt they will help you hodge podge their board into a new machine but you never know.
