Motherboard setup, where do I plug stuff in????
Hello everyone. I changed cases in my GX110. I can't figure out where to plug the cords into my motherboard for things like the "Power LED, HDD LED" and my cpu power fan. Does anyone have the link to the picture of this??? I have been looking on the Dell help site for 2 hours now and can't find it. Please help. I just need like the motherboard layout of where to plug stuff in. I know where to plug in the power to the motherboard and harddrives, etc... Please help.
THANKS A LOT!!!!!!!!!!

GX110 Power is NOT Standard. :smileysurprised:
You MUST use a DELL 9228C power supply OR use an adaptor.
The front panel connector is a 9 pin connector near the middle front of the board.
ONLY the Adaptor should go to the motherboard No connectors from the PSU should go if you are using a NON DELL power supply.

The front panel control with intrusion switch/Reset/and on/off looks like this

look carefully, read carefully.
If its NOT A DELL power supply you will blow up your motherboard.
Or if you do not have a dell power adaptor.
The front panel connector is at the front of the board. Its 9 pin. The on/off/reset power board is also pictured above. Im not going to figure out the wiring for you and its not posted anywhere nor does dell provide this.

Interesting to know how you are going to fit the riser if you are using a non-Dell case and want to use PCI cards......
I would have thought if you were going to use a non-Dell case, you'd be better getting a cheap standard ATX mobo off eBay and using the components of the GX110 in that; been there, done that....its a lot easier than putting a Dell mobo in a standard case!

Never mind guys. I'll just bust out the drill, pop me in a few new holes to screw it in there and "GET R' DONE!", thanks for your help ya'll.
PS: I have a fire extinguisher ready! :smileyvery-happy:
