1164022 2010-12-22 07:50:00 It'll work from the back of the case, it just wont work from the front. Post pics of the connection from the manual. And the connections / wires from the front panel of the case

I will do that now.

I installed the onboard sound driver when i had xp and i didn't get any sound. I was told on here that i had to connect the wires from the front panel of the case for the onboard to work.

my sound jack connects into the back. I don't use the front panel jacks. I have the front USB working if that helps, as those were easy to connect.

1164023 2010-12-22 07:54:00 You dont have to connect the front panel to get sound. Altho, this may depend on the brand / model of the mobo. The back plugs SHOULD still work, but obviously the front Mic / audio ports wont. I'll wait for you to post the pics Speedy Gonzales (78)

here's the page from the manual. its only the one on the right that you need. sorry for it not being the greatest scan, but it's still sharp and readable.


I can't take a picture of the wires at the moment, but i can type what they say and what their size is:

on one grey wire: Ground - occupys 1 pin..... L-out L-ret occupies 2 pins (these are both on the same black end)

on the second grey wire: R-out R-ret occupies 2 pins (also on the same black end)
Ground - occupies 1 pin.( on its own black end)
Mic in - occupies 1 pin (on its own black end)
Mic Power - occupies 1 pin( on its own black end)

is this the correct page? ( just checked, its the wrong damn page!)

I'll look for the manual on the net if its not the right page.

this is what my mobo looks like, with a few things being slightely different

1164029 2010-12-22 08:38:00 This one I've circled. This is it here. All we need now is a pic of the wires from the front. Altho, I would really update this system dude. It maybe running DDR 333/400 ram, but youre not going to get the most out of it, with Win7 Speedy Gonzales (78)
1164030 2010-12-22 08:46:00 This one I've circled. This is it here. All we need now is a pic of the wires from the front

I'll take a picture soon, after i've finished eating fish and chips.
