Press to toggle the system ID on and off. Pin assignments I have a dell dimension and the case is pretty ugly. The following figure shows the P2 16 pin DC power connector.

Usually the case connector with the white writing faces up for power LED, all others connect with the word side face down (triangle side usually connects to the corresponding ground).ĥ. Some of the speaker 4-pins are separated from the front panel part, but generally the layout is always power LED on top and HDD LED on bottom followed by power/ground and reset/groundĤ. Note that some boards say IDE instead of HDD but it's the same thing and will work with any harddrive)ģ. Some cases with PLED+ and PLED- separated (1 space apart), don't try to connect if your case only has a PLED connector where both are next to each other (but you will be fine since your - and + are separated)Ģ. Others are empty space which uses no pins.ġ. |HDD+ | HDD-| |POWER|Ground| |RESET|ground| IF (and only IF) Dell motherboards follow the standard 15pin front panel, this is how you would do it: O 6x back panel connectors for 7.1 Surround O 1x Back Panel and 1x Front Panel IEEE 1394 (Firewire) Connector O 4x back-panel USB 2.0–compliant connectors O Integrated 7.1 channel, High Definition Audio with S/PDIF support O 6x 1066 MHz or 1333 MHz DDR3 Memory Sockets
