AC97 plugin problem

Solution


Just leave the AC97 disconnected. Plug in the HD audio connector to the F_Audio header on the motherboard. (page 26 in your MB manual) Modern cases provide both connections in case you are using an old MB.

Besides the CPU FAN header, that motherboard has 3 x aux fan headers; SYS_FAN1/SYS_FAN2/PWR_FAN. You can dispose of the Molex adapters on the fans and plug the small connectors into those headers. That is the normal way to do it. (page 23 of your MB manual). Or, if you prefer, you can leave the large Molex adapters connected to the fans and plug them directly into Molex connectors from the PSU. Your choice.
