This is my first time encountering front panel connections, I can install Hard Disk, Atx, cpu fan, power supply, Mobo etc. My casing have:

2 PIN H.D.D LED (Orange and White)
2 PIN RESET SW (Blue and White)
2 PIN RESET SW (Orange and White)
9 PIN USB
HD AUDIO
AC 97

i search on youtube and google for the solutions on how to intall but i failed the thing is theres no sign whether its a + or - on my mobo neither on the switch itself so i can't identify where to put them. I do find F_Panel which mean is front panel right? I seem to be confused on why the h.... i got this two RESET SW? What!? I cant find the POWER SW. It seems to work on my other mobo because an I.T install the f panel connections but i want to try it myself too. So the question is how do i know where i put the LED, RSW, RSW? in the F_panel?

My mobo is. ACER G41T-AD, can you elaborate what should i do? I cant seem to find the manual due to low internet connection.

Your answers will be deeply put on to consideration. Thanks in Advance love you guys :))

HDD led - pins 1,3 white to 3. If not working, switch orange with white
Now between the 2 reset switches, my guess is that one of them is PWR SW.
Reset sw is 5,7, Power SW is 6,8. Polarity does not matter for switches.

Solution
As stated, polarity does not matter on the switches. The switches are momentary switches meaning that when you push the button, it lets a piece of metal move down to allow contact between the two wires; thus no matter which way you have the wires the end result will be voltage going from the proper pin on the motherboard down the wire, through the switch, down the other wire to the proper pin on the motherboard.

As far as having 2 reset switches. One of these will be for the power switch and if you cant find anything online about your case you can just trace the wire to the bigger button that is for the power button. Worst case scenario you can just use trial and error because both switches work the same and you will cause zero damage testing it in the other slot.
