Hello,
I am having a bit of a issue with 1 darn cable, I just bougth a new video card, http://www.zotacusa.com/geforce-gts-250-1gb-256-bit-gddr3-738mhz-2200mhz-zt-20103-10p.html and it came with a spdif cable that has a 3 pin connector and 2 spdif/gnd single connectors. My PC is a HP, I looked up the info for my Mobo and found its a Asus M2N68-LA. I went to Asus found no kind of layouts etc, went to hp and their layout looks like a child drew it lol. Anyways my problem is the spdif connection on my mobo is 3 pins, and it has no markings to whats the ground or which of the 3 i use. My question is where in the world do i plug the 2 in choosing from the 3? I included pictures of the mobo's connectors and the cable i have. My video card also has 3 and its says spdif In. heres the link to the motherboard from hp. (worthless imo)

Any help would be awesome. I tried to fit the little black ones into the mobo in no particular order but they seemed to be way loose. Again thank you for your time it is much appreciated. Hopefully the links work correctly, if not let me know i will be watching this thread like a hawk while my pc sits open lol. Merry Christmas and ty again.
