Need help hooking up the cords from my power supply

I've managed to awkwardly hop along through each step of building my computer, but at the last step, I am stumped: Plugging everything in!

Is there someone out there who might be willing to Skype call with me and help me plug in each thing until finished? It's the last bit I need to do D:

Thanks for any assistance! I'll give you my Skype info when contacting me with PMs!

Hello, and thanks for the quick reply! <3

The sockets(the plastic at the end of a cord) are indeed labelled, but mostly the labels don't match exactly to the prompts on the motherboard surface next to the plugs!
An example would be that I have 2 USB plugs, that are each about 1 inch wide, and very thin, with circular holes within it.
One of them has 2 cords connected to 1 socket, and the other one has 1 connected(Looks pretty standard).
Consequently, I decided to plug the dual corded one in first, and left the single corded one be, cause there was only 1 plug for USB that I could see. I think it was labelled F_USB30 on the motherboard, and USB3.0 on the plugs(Yes, both of them).

There's also a plug called COM? COMA? COMS? something, and there is indeed a 2nd plug for USB, but it does not fit the aforementioned single corded socket

Additionally, there's an ATXV12 or something cord in the top half of the motherboard next to the CPU slot. It has 8 holes in it, and I found a cord which had 8 holes in 1 end, and 8 holes in the other. I discovered that this is apparently some kind of 'assistance power plug' for the power supply, to feed power into the motherboard? But the cord is labelled as "PCI" on the side, and one side has that clip at the top of it to ensure it doesn't slip from the plug, but it is about twice as wide as the holes for them to go into above the plugs, and won't fit anywhere on the back of the power supply!


There are also a ton of fans in my tower which each have their own small 3 holes big plug(horizontal) with it, but every single fan marked spot on the Motherboard has 4 sticks instead of 3.
There's also an LED plug, a Power SV plug, and a RESET plug, all of which I cannot locate on the motherboard.


And you don't need to build it for me, the only thing I require to know is where each plug goes, and how o.o


(And for some reason the Power supply came with like 4 identical SATA plugs, when I only need 1, and there are like 4 SATA sockets along the cord -.-)



I'm sorry if that was confusing, I'm quite the novice and have just been fumbling along through the dark trying to do this right, and so far I've gotten every component securely mounted in the tower, but the cord problem is completely out of my league :\
