I thought the fact that when sliding the plug into the front port, the sound made a small crackle, as it does when you plug speakers in, and also the sound recorder registered a small spike, that there is actually power going to it.

422080 2006-01-19 04:40:00 It sounds like one of the pins from the front (for the mic power) is on the right pin . BUT the other pin for the mic isnt on the right connection / pin on the mobo . So, when u speak nothing happens .

Have u tried moving the pins around on the mobo front panel connector, to see which pins will make the mic work .

I would do this, while the system is on (if the front panel mobo connector isnt too close to anything else) . And its not too hard to get to .

It'll work fine in the back, coz its hardwired to the mobo . The front of the case isnt, until u connect the wires from the front to the right pins on the mobo connector . I'll get the manual (but didnt want to)! on 56k .

It takes too long, and I couldnt be bothered waiting before :D

So I can see where this connection is on the mobo .

422081 2006-01-19 04:49:00 Sorry about the manual Speedy. I was trying to extract just the relevant pages to give to you, but I couldnt figure out how to do it. I could do this if you could tell me how. mejobloggs (264)
422082 2006-01-19 05:11:00 I've got the manual now . So, you've put the front audio R on pins 5&6 and Audio L on pins 9&10 .

What pins have u put the 2 mic wires on??

The mic wires should, I would say be on pins 1&3 .

If the front mic connection says Mic_PWR I would say this goes on pin 3 .

And then put the slider up under sound recording for the mic . Does front panel mic appear in sound recording under advanced under the mic?
