How to connect front panel connectors to gigabyte ga-880gm-ud2h motherboard?

[arodriguez]

I have gotten this motherboard and it came with no instruction manual on how to install the little connectors that say + and - on them. Where should they go?

Here is the manufacturer website for that specific motherboard. It includes a download for the manual.

@terry4536 I have used the manual and I was missing the speaker + and -, the message/power/sleep LED and the chassis intrusion header. Do I need those for it to work or will it work without?

They are for the power and drive activity LED on the front of the case. It also connects the power and reset buttons to the motherboard. So you do need to connect them.

Here is a screenshot of the front panel pin out.

@terry4536 hmm idk mine doesn't come with those other connectors. I hope it still will work and power on!

The case speaker isn't normally included. What connectors are you talking about?

Here is one example.

Then connect the connectors supplied with your PC case.

The normal compliment of front panel connectors are System power LED, Hard disk drive activity, ATX power button, and Reset button .
