Question: connecting my Antec P160 to my K7T Turbo 2

[nobody]

Archived from groups: alt.comp.periphs.mainboard.msi-microstar (More info?)

I just bought an Antec P160 case. It has front connectors for IEEE,
audio, and 2 USB. None of the connectors match my MSI m/b. The MSI
has a 10 pin USB2 connector, but while the wire coming from the P160
has a 10-pin connector, one of the corner pins is blocked. Also, I'm
not sure the pin assignments match up.

Also, the P160 has a 10-pin audio connector. Can I get a sound card
that will connect to that, since the K7T doesn't have onboard audio?

Thanks!

The USB2 motherboard connection is clearly described in the manual.
I didn't have any problem to connect the front connector in a similar
situation.

Sorry about being Off track but does anyone out there have a MSI K7T Turbo 2 running an oc Barton?

I forgot what a Barton is.

Thanks so much for the clarification, as I hadn't bothered to read the
manual.

Now on a serious note: the manual says, "There are two black, 5-pin
USB connectors on cables attached to the front bezel."

Yes, very clear. As opposed to the two black, 5-pin IEEE connectors
on cables attached to the front bezel. Neither are labeled, both the
USB and IEEE have 7 wires, both have black 5-pin connectors, both come
out of the bowels of the front bezel. Very clear indeed. But the
manual does give this helpful bit of advice: "DO NOT connect the IEEE
1394 connectors to your motherboard's USB header." Thanks for that.

Why didn't you just tell me which connector you used to connect to
your MSI K7T Turbo2 USB2 location? The one with the thicker white and
a blue wire, or the thinner white and a green wire?
