Installed mother to new tower case and pwr sw | hd led | reset | power led connecting to my board is the Intel dq67sw 155 matx motherboard need accurate dir to connect these please help

Hi Dear

For the installation the new motherboard in you PC, click here and find the guide book for mother board installation.


God luck

> power led,

Runs to the LED (Light Emitting Diode) labelled "power" on the front of your computer-case

> H.D.D led,

Runs to the front-panel LED that lights-up whenever the Hard Disk Drive is being used.

> reset sw,

Runs to the "reset" button on the front panel.

> speaker

Runs to the internal speaker

> s/b sw

Very briefly touch a metal-tip screwdriver between these 2 pins.
If the computer powers-on, you've found the "power" connector.

I have the same problem! The PW SW, and Reset SW can go either way round. The LED leads do need to be correctly placed. If there has been any doubt in the past I have tried each way until one way works - this has never caused me any problems. One tip is that usually the marking on the connectors all face the same way.

normally the wires black connectors are marked with white text like PWR SW and PWR LED and stuff and the colors of the wires normally correspondes to the color on the motherboard.....ill look it up and see what i can do for you!

Hi,

Here is a link to your motherboard manual:

D845PEBT2 Manual

Go to Page 33 for the Front Panel connections...with pictures. :-)

Thanks for using Fixya.

The manual in question can be located here

http://download.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/sb/d1047103_en.pdf

It is a pdf file, so you will need ADOBE,
I have checked and the pinout for the front panel connectors is there.

the symbol is there writen there on the board or abrivation you can follow it.. like( pwr sw/ Hddled/ spkr..

Hi check the cables from the case to the mother board. They should be marked and the book that came with the board will tell you where to connect them. The std markings are HDD [red led] PWR S [powerswitch] RSW [reset switch] PWR LED [case power light] To test if there is no fault in the board or power pack. first visualy check the board to see if you have a red led light on when the power is turned on, if not the problem is in the power pack or the wall outlet. second if the light is on, the bridge the pins marked pwr switch on the board with a screw driver and this should start the computer, if not you have a faulty board.

The manual you need will be on the board manufacturers web page, howevr I will bet you have the case power switch and perhaps the reset switch on the wrong pins on the mother board. To check this, remove the switch leads from the mother board, then use a small screw driver and bridge the pins on the mother board a pair at a time. All of these leads plug on to the board in a line and not across the two lines of pins. when you get the mother board to fire up by this method geet a torch and look closely alongside the pins you will see the letters PWR SW or RS SW. It does not matter what polarity these two sets of leads are plugged onto both will work. The LED lights on the case front will only work if the polarity is correct but it will not do any harm if they are backwords. On the board you should se two sets of pins marked HDD and PWR these are the led light pins you will know you have them right when the usual red and green lights are working at the front of your tower.
