I need to know where to hook up the power switch, HDD Led and power Led. for my RS480M motherboard. do you have a scematic for it

Hello Randy, the terminals are located near the SATA ports. read your motherboard labels near it and you'll find the connectors, its very basic, you can figure it out. plus signs are green for the power led and orange for the HDD. read the wire connector of your PC casing.

its simple, start from left power led next to power led is power switch, just below power switch put hdd and next to hdd put reset . thats it done.. all boards have the same module.....

For future Reference you can download your manual directly from the manufacturer's website HERE
Or directly from HERE

The motherboard in your computer is an MSI MS-7145, which is also called RS480M. You can download a copy of the manual here. The front panel connections are on page 2-20.

Looking at the header JFP1, pins 1 through 9 (odd numbers) are the front row, pins 2 through 10 are the back. Pin 10 is the missing pin. The power switch connects to pins 6 and 8. The power LED connects to pins 2 and 4. The HDD LED connects to pins 1 and 3. The reset button, if used, connects to pins 5 and 7.

Hi there
The front panel connectors are mainly,

• harddisk activity connector
• power switch connector
• reset switch connector
• power LED connector
• speakers connector
• USB connector

Harddisk activity connector
This normally comes red in colour and is labeled as HDD-LED
Power switch connector
This comes green in colour and is labeled as POWER-SW
Reset switch connector
This usually comes grey in colour and is labeled as RST-SW
Power LED connector
This is usually green in colour and is labled as PWR-LED
Speakers connector
This speaker will give different beep sounds during boot to tell the user if there is any errors. It occupies 4 pins, however only 2 is important for the function. Be sure to connect the red coloured cable to the positive polarity and the black to the negative.

Good luck and thanks for using FixYa!!

5V Stand-By Indicator LED
The power supply will always supply a 5V standby voltage to your
motherboard so that it can power on via for example Wake On Lan
technology. This LED shows that your power supply is supplying
this standby voltage to your motherboard.n :D

You may need to replace your power supply, if the LED is flashing, it's not supplying the power the motherboard needs.

Hi swiftty6, you can download the manual for this board from this link. http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=downloaddetail&type=manual&maincat_no=1&prod_no=558

Than go to pg. 2-18 for a better picture showing these case connections.
Like this.
Enjoy!

You first need to know the make and model number of the motherboard. Most mobo's have the make and model printed on the board itself, other times there will be a sticker.

locate these and let me know what make and model and i can do my best to provide you with the manual.

Thanks,
Brad Nelson
