Front Panel LEDs

Okay, first, I wanted to thank those of you who helped me with my mobo replacement choice. I am thrilled with my ASUS P4P800 SE - even if it was a nightmare to get in and everything hooked up. My temps have stablized and are normal.

Now, my front LEDs aren't working. Now, with my old Mach Speed mobo, my blue flames and reset switch lit up but the reset switch never worked. And the power LED never worked. With the Asus, my power switch LED doesn't work (switch does), my reset switch works now but I don't have my flames now.

Here's the link to ATADC's webpage to show you which case I have: ATADC's Black Blaze

I have all my front panel cords hooked up (Power LED, IDE LED, Reset Switch, ATX Power Switch). I checked, rechecked and checked again to make sure it's all right. The only cable not hooked up is a cable with 2 pins and a plastic clip thing. There isn't a single place on my mobo to hook it up at, and I don't remember it being hooked up on my Mach Speed either. I even looked over my Mach Speed mobo to see if it had a plug in for it, and I didn't find one. I tried hooking up that plug directly to the PSU. There was a cable unused that looks like it was for a CPU fan or something. I switched arounf the cable plug wire things and still nothing.

If I can't get it fixed, it's not to big of a deal to me, but my husband is having a fit. He wants them working.

If the LEDs aren't working, swap positions of the two wires. As for the unknown connector, could be a front fan,speaker,case intrusion switch. Need to trace it back what the wires are connected to. If you don't known what the plugs are for, don't just start plugging things in.
