I have several older model computers (but not all of the parts are with them) that I'd like to try to use the parts from one to get at least one or two up and running.
But the one thing that confuses me is those little wires (most are twisted as a group) that are attached to the case but connect to the mobo. One is the power button, one is the speaker, one is the HDD LED, one is the Keylock (whatever that is)?? and and the others are I don't know?
How does one determine the polarity of these wires if they're not marked on the wire or the mobo....especially the power button? What about polarity for the HDD LED?
This is confusing and prevents me from making a move to build a computer from parts basically......I need to know what goes.
The computers are too old to find anything on the web about the mobo's so I'm out of luck there.
What do I have to be concerned about as I try to understand what wire goes to what mobo connection?
