Hi

I hope you guys can help me with this. I'm trying to hook up these
case wires correctly to the mother board.

Are the white wires + positive or - negative?

What's the correct way to connect the speaker wires?
Is the black wire a - negative?

What's the correct way to connect the Power LED?
It's just color coded black with 3 pins and has no + or - signs.

Since there is a white wire on each set, that would be negative. The speaker shouldn't matter but go for black as negative. Sometimes there are very small marks on the plugs with some clues.

Extremely simple. No polarity for power switch, reset switch and speaker. LEDs, as said white is probably negative. plug them in and if they don't light reverse them, you cannot damage anything.
