Hello
So, I am unsure if this is related or not, but the pins you use to power up the PC, and other pins for the front I/O bits, the connectors are very fiddley and I don't think they are sat right. So, do they make a solid "extension" so I can plug the wires in with easy of access then use the whole connector to install. If not, is there away I can attach them together in the correct orientation so everything works as it should, like glue or tape...

So, what is this related too? well my PC does not make a sound, I haven't had a PC for some 10is years (maybe more like 15, I can't remember), and I know all of my PC's and my favourite Mac's all had a beep of some sort when you turn the device on. I was talking about it the other day, and it has made me thing, maybe I should get that working on my PC, as I believe (not sure if still happening) that the tone of the beeps or amount of them when booting up a PC/Mac you get a quick diagnosis or warning regarding a possible issue with the device.

So, would this be something I have just simply not installed correctly, does it require a sound card or something (I think they just help with surround sound, etc... not internal beeps). I also don't know if this is something I have to setup for the PC to use my TV speakers, if that's the case, okay, I will look into things more, nut when googling things I always find people want to do the opposite to what I am after.

I have had this setup for some 3 years now, a slight upgrade on a couple of bits but nothing drastic (adding fans) adding modifications is my latest updates, so its not a big deal if there isn't much to do.

Please provide main parts list or PC make and model.
Most of the shelf motherboards don't come with beepers for debugging so you have to use one that comes with case or to ad one to pins provided on the MB. get manual for it. Normal sound outputs don't do that, the are active only when OS is booted and drivers installed, not during the POST.
As for that adapter you seek, most modern MBs come with one but are not universal so you would have to get one made for your MB but they do exist. Mostly universal for particular MB brand.

I have an “ASRock Fatal1ty B450 GAMING K4 ATX AM4 Motherboard” and my case is a “corsair carbide spec-04”


Is the correct grammar either I have “a” ASRock… or I have “an” ASRock…
