Hi there

I have a problem with sorting out the front panel conectors on a imedia 5055 MoBo , it is a Gigabyte MoBo GA-8SIML ver 1.0 , but it is a version that is not on the Gigabyte site they only have ver 1.1 and above , and the Front panel conector on the MoBo is not the same .

Welcome to HWF :)

Connect each front panel plug to these pins:

HDD LED: HD Blink GRN + and HD Blink YEL. If the HDD LED doesn't light up, then reverse the plug.

PWR SW: FP BUT IN and GND. The direction of the plug shouldn't matter here.

RESET: FP Reset and GND. The direction of the plug shouldn't matter.

PWR LED: HD PWR and HDA. If the power LED doesn't light up, then reverse the plug.
