There are a whole range of motherboards covered by that designation.

Pro, Deluxe, WS, LE and E-WS are just a few I found.

Post your specific motherboard model number, and post an image of the clips, since I've never seen a mobo with clips like that.

Dude - they're like fan headers on every other motherboard on the planet. you need to firmly pull straight up. Tale care not to pull onthe wire, but on the plastic. Sometimes I have to use a needle-nose pliers since my fingers can't always get a good grip.

OK, I give up. Unfortunately few people read solved requests, so I will mark the solved answer you gave as "Unsolved" and maybe you can find someone else that will give you advice.

There are little clips on the 24-pin and CPU 4- or 8-pin headers connectors, and those you also just need to press with your fingers. I've never seen or heard of a motherboard or fan cables that have clips on their 3- or 4-pin headers or connectors.

Good luck in your quest.
