I am installing a new Gigabyte GA-F2A88XM-DS2 board into an old case that previously had a Jetway K8M8MS. Everything seems fine except for the connections to the front of the computer. Below are the header maps from the two boards' user manuals:

The Front Panel pins on the gbyte are marked

no pin / NC
PW- / RES+
PW+ / RES-
PLED- / HD-
PLED+ / HD+

The same pins on the Jetway are:

no pin / NC
PWRBTN GRD / RSTSW
PWRBTN / GND
POWERLED / HDDLED
VCC5 / VCC5

Am I correct in assuming those are a match?

On the Jetway there are also two wires from the front going to a header called SPEAK with the following pins

VCC5 - Black wire
GND - no wire
NC - no wire
SPKR - Yellow wire

I can't find anything that matches that on the Gigabyte. Does anyone know what they are? I didn't know there was a speaker in the front. At the moment I am just assuming I won't be able to connect those wires, losing a small amount of functionality.

Thanks

Yes of course! Should have thought a bit harder. Great, so after further research it seems that has indeed become surplus to requirements as the gbyte board makes no provision. There's a suggestion this has been substituted by a visual alternative. We shall see.
