| 1374205 | 2014-05-06 07:51:00 | A search of the numbers on the tag brought up this....microdream.co.uk The tags on the wires read M35100E00A-GY0-G and M35100F00A-GY0-G. "F" is the blue and white switch cable (I think after studying that image) "E" is the main bunch comprising the following pairs: Red/White, Green/White, Blue/White, Orange/Green Using the chart above - I deduce Red is 1, Green is 2, 3 is the White paired with Red, 4 White paired with Green, 5 is empty, 6 is Blue, 7 empty, 8 the white that pairs with blue, 9, 10, 11 &13 are empty, 12 is orange and 14 is light green these two are paired. Sooooo....I need 4 x 2 pin sockets? and look for the corresponding pins on the motherboard? |

| 1374206 | 2014-05-06 08:16:00 | You can get cheap PCI\PCI-E IDE cards on eBay easy. I have a JMicron based one that does SATA too. I use it for running a couple of old IDE DVD\CD drives. | Agent_24 (57) | ||
| 1374207 | 2014-05-06 08:23:00 | This may help. Looks like it may use the same 14 pin connector (www.fixya.com) Front Panel Header pin assignments as follows: Pins 2 + 4 = Power Led Pins 6 + 8 = Power Switch Pins 12 + 14 = LAN Activity Led Pins 1 + 3 = HDD Led Pins 5 + 7 = Reset Switch Pin 9 = +5v Pins 11 + 13 = ODD Led Pin formation is as below with no pin in position 10. 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 1 3 5 7 9 11 13 |

Sooooo....I need 4 x 2 pin sockets? and look for the corresponding pins on the motherboard?:waughh::waughh::waughh::waughh::lol: Personally, reading the book as to what wire is what is over complicating the matter. Question - What happens if they decided to change wire color during construction ? Its a LOT quicker and 100% less complicated and more accurate to look at the twisted pairs, follow them back to what ever they belong to Eg: Pwr switch, HDD Led Reset etc.Done this method for over 10 years and NEVER been wrong. If you look at the Motherboard manual page 1-34 it will show you where the connections go ( they are a standard layout - they are also written on the MB in very small writing) You'll need the following connectors: 3 x 2 pin, 2 single pins (or a 4 pin connector) this is for the power LED - (there's a gap between pins) Note: the fun happens with older HP's they changed the wire arrangement from standard on the USB plugs - if you didn't change them to the correct sequence it blew the USB ports instantly. PS: the Header thats on the current case WONT FIT the new board, its completely wrong, to small, blanks in the wrong place . |

| 1374209 | 2014-05-06 09:05:00 | When all else fails - read the manual. Apparently I just need an Asus Q connector, which they very kindly supplied :o But I still need to get those wires out of the old socket and put pins on them. |

I hope I can get those easily - I'm not going back to the black-shirts. Dick Smith maybe? |

| 1374211 | 2014-05-06 09:17:00 | Or you could get something like this (www.quietpc.com). Or something similar to this (www.ebay.com) Or this (www.nzxt.com) This is in Chch (www.overclockers.co.nz) |

| 1374212 | 2014-05-06 09:20:00 | If you want, PM me with a postal address and I'll throw some in a envelope, I got MANY, you'll just need to remove the old pins with a needle as posted above, they are simply cut from old PC's. Or as you mentioned earlier go to "The local Hospice has its weekly garage sale" Armed with a screw driver ( to remove the case cover) and a wire cutter. PS: I cant send any till at least Thursday - I'm flat out all day. |

Around 25 yrs ago friend walked into one to buy a computer. They laughed and said she was too old. Big mistake, she walked out, went over the road and bought one cash on the spot. She was in her '60s then, had masses of money and spent quite a lot over the years, never again with DSE........she now owns an Ipad....being her latest purchase. |
