I have a Dell 660s and am moving the parts to a larger case with a bigger Power supply. I plan on then buying a graphics card however I am not posting to talk about that. I've already put it all in the new case but the problem I am having is the front slots pattern. The Dell 660s came with a power switch and led combined into one large plug not the standard 2 and 1 pins that came with my antec case.

Sadly I do not own the motherboard manual and do not know the name of said motherboard so it has been difficult to find anything relevant. I have looked at the online manual for 660s, it does not contain the pattern. The online manual does contain a layout for the motherboard if it would help. I attempted the 660 front slots pattern but met blank response. I also tried many variations.

Example of the slot that is to be connected to.

I will list off the 1/2 pin cables I have if for some odd reason it is needed.
1 pins
Power Led +, Power Led -,
2 pins
Power switch, H.D.D Led +-, Reset Switch

I will be asleep shortly so I apologize in advance to late replies.
This was edited due to needed saying needes.

Thank you for taking the time to read my pitiful question.

You get to do this completely manually. On the dell case follow the wires for the power sw down the the connector. Now you know where to plug in the new powersw and you will likely have to remove the pins from the connector they are in and mount them to the motherbd header directly. make sure they go in straigh and don't touch other pins. It doesn't matter which way you install the switch since either way its still just a short circuit. Repeat for reset sw.

Led's are trickier but follow the same procedure. if they don't light up them reverse the two pins on the connector
