I am new to PC building and have been confused for hours on where to plug in my 1394 cable. I read the manual for both my motherboard and my case and the only information i got was to not plug it into where the USB goes. Here are the Motherboard and case I am working with.

Nowhere, that mobo doesn't have any 1394 connections.

Yup it only has a USB 2.0 plug for your case. K1114 is right your mobo doesnt support 1394
