Hi, I'm building a computer and I'm in a pickle. I can't figure out how to orient the power and reset switch wires onto my mother board. I know where they go and all that, I just don't know which wire is associated with which pole.
I read somewhere that with these switch wires, polar orientation doesn't matter. The white wire is labeled "G" and the colored wire is labeled "S". Now I assume these letters stand for "ground" and "switch" respectively, but I wanted to come on the forums to be sure. Should I associate this "G" wire (white) with the negative or the positive pole? Does it even matter?
I would rather not have to buy another motherboard just because I was too impatient to be absolutely sure. I am extremely paranoid about wiring and electricity in general, so you can see where I'm coming from.
Any links to good resources or personal experience would be great!
