Connecting Front Panel Audio Connectors, Very Confused! Please Help!

zaid786 · 12-12-2006, 01:22 AM

OS: Windows Vista Ultimate RTM (Build 6000)
Processor: AMD Athlon 64 3500+ Venice Core
RAM: 2048MB Corsair Value Select (2x512MB, 1x1024MB)
Graphics Card: Nvidia Geforce 6100 (Onboard)
Motherboard: GIGABYTE GA-K8N51GMF-9

Problem Description: Hello! I've been trying to connect my front panel audio by using various guides floating on the internet but can't seem to get it right, and no sound works from the front panel audio, i've also tried using my motherboard manual but I'm complete confused to connect what where! I'm using a X-Blade Case (link here: Eclipse Computers - Product Details) which has the following connectors:

Mic IN
GND
MIC BIAS
L IN
L OUT
R IN
R OUT

My motherboard manual has these configurations:

HD Audio:

Pin Definition

1 MIC2_L
2 GND
3 MIC2_R
4 -ACZ_DET
5 Line2_R
6 FSENSE1
7 FAUOIO_JD
8 No Pin
9 LINE2_L
10 FSENSE2

AC'97 Audio:

Pin Definition

1 MIC
2 GND
3 MIC Power
4 NC
5 Line Out (R)
6 NC
7 NC
8 No Pin
9 Line Out (L)
10 NC

For a start, which layout am I supposed to be using for the above case wires? They are all split individually, and also which way do they go in? Which way does the writing on them have to point? Or doesn't it make a difference? lol I'm not too sure. If someone can help me with this thanks in advance!! And my motherboard manual link is:

zaid786 · 12-12-2006, 02:21 AM

Quote:

Mic IN
GND
MIC BIAS

If yes, then try this,,,,,connect Microfone with Mic in nd Headphones with L IN.....
