pwr switch, reset switch, & HDD switch with ground need to be plugged to MB but both wires are black. I thought black was reserved for ground. How can I tell which wire goes where? --edit On the rear side there is an arrow on one of the pins/holes. merle - vote yes for freedom of speech |

if you look at the plastic piece on the end there is usually a small triangle marking on one of the pins |

triangle is supposed to be positive on the hdd activity led the power switch and the reset switch don't matter because they just need to short |

I believe the one with the arrow is positive. |

There are some 'wierd' things I don't understand on this build but I need to take them slow. One at a time. This one is more complicated than the first one. The case has some connections I don't understand and cm's website is a joke, along with their 'manual'. merle - vote yes for freedom of speech |
