Front panel jumper

    This is going to cause me a nightmare....

    I have the Xion Black Pearl II case, and Gigabyte GA945P-S3


    There are several jumpers on the mobo for the front panel connections, all different colours etc and identifiable easily thru the motherboard manual.

    There are four different connections which I need to attach to these jumpers: Power switch, reset button, status LED and HDD Led.

    I have figured out where the connectors need to go, but what I have not figured is what way to insert them, and which is + and - etc. There is a small arrow at one side of each of the connectors, is this an indication as to which is positive etc?

    Any help gratefully appriciated!

    Check the manuals for the mobo and the case. It should clearly indicate which is +/-. But if you cant find it, the the red is +.

    Right so, red is positive. There is only one red wire in the loom, the rest are orange, blue,green etc with a coloured wire and a white wire in each pair. I have deduced that the coloured wire in each case is the +

    Is there a little mark on the connectors, like a small triangle or somethin else, this usually indicates positive in each pair.
