Wiring

[Sharpedge]

I am using an Antec 900.

In placing the power on, HDD, and reset wiring on the motherboard, I want to make sure I have them wired correctly.

All three have a white colored but the second wire is a different color. Am I correct that the white is ground?

I tried searching for wiring but did not find any threads of that detail.

Thanks

As I recall, you're right. Try hooking the pwr and pwr led the way you think, white to ground, and turn it on. If you're right, the power led will light up, if you're wrong, it won't. Shut down and turn it around if you're wrong.

the power and reset switch wires can go on either way. When you push the button it just shorts the two pins together.

The HDD - just try it. If the light doesn't work, switch it around.

That would be correct.. When I replaced my MB last time I managed to screw up the HDD activity light and the power on light. Pain because I have to remove stuff to get to them. I'll fix it one of these days It doesn't hurt anything if you reverse it, the lights just wont work.
