trials_pimp Posted September 10, 2005 Report Share Posted September 10, 2005 OK, I had to get a new case for my computron, and the new case I have has USB ports in the front. My old case had these, but it was just on plug, that slotted in, the new case has a lot of small single pin plugs for each wire. Now everyone who has looked at it cat figure it out, so I turn to you guys. How do I wire these in????? Its a Gigabyte 8.0 mother borad if that helps. Ill get the proper numer ect for if needed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomturd Posted September 10, 2005 Report Share Posted September 10, 2005 Have you looked at the motherboard manual? You should be able to match them up using the letters printed on each of the USB cably things and whats printed in the manual (dont always match exactly but near enough) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMonkey Posted September 10, 2005 Report Share Posted September 10, 2005 On my Mobo, each pin for the USB was in order, and if you put the USB connecty things so the wires weren't tangled that made them in order then you just put them on like that, it works for me so yeah give it a go >_< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomm Posted September 10, 2005 Report Share Posted September 10, 2005 I hate cases like that. There's no need for the case to be supplied with individual things like that, it's so annoying. Anyway, there will be a pic in the motherboard manual that looks like this But they're all standard, so you can just use that one. And then painstakingly match up the pins to the header... NB each header like that is for TWO usb ports (called 5 and 6 in that pic) so make sure you don't get the ports confusled. Good luck. Just try it, if it doesn't work you can't do any harm, you'll just have to take it off and try again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trials_pimp Posted September 10, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2005 One small problem with that, I dont have a manual for this mother board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomm Posted September 10, 2005 Report Share Posted September 10, 2005 One small problem with that, I dont have a manual for this mother board. ← Well ok, it doesn't matter. Like I said, they're all the same so just use the one I posted. If you can't work out what that diagram refers to, I'm sure you'll be able to download a motherboard manual from the manufacturer's website, so look in there.

Danny Posted September 10, 2005 Report Share Posted September 10, 2005 They drove me mad on my antec case so 2 mins and some superglue later they are now all glued in a nice block >_< As tom said follow that diagram if not download the manual off the gigabyte site and double check. I think its only older motherboards that dont follow the standard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
