Hey, I am trying to finish building my computer and I am having some issues with the wiring...

I have this Case and this MB

I can see where to connect the USB ports...I have no idea really about the IEEE 1394 port

The eSATA port...do I connect that in the same place where I connect my regular SATA drives on the MB?

I am totally lost with the audio...it has 2 8 pin connectors and then about 10 of those singular pins with colors...on the f panel there are 4 pins that say speaker...then there is a the 10 pins on the f_audio...I am trying to figure out where to put all those

then I have the 4 dual pins (Power LED, Power SW, HDD LED, and Reset) which all go on the f_panel on those 8 pins...what about the PWR_LED header which has 3 pins (no clue if I have to put something on that

any help u gives can give me will solve many problems for me :) thanks

Some power LED headers have a 3-pin connector instead of 2-pin. Don't worry about it.

The 4-pin speaker header goes on the 4-pin speaker connection on the motherboard.

Are you sure the audio is 2 8-pins, and not 2 9-pins? (2x5 array with one blank spot.)
If the audio connectors you have don't match up to the front panel audio on the motherboard, use the 10 individual pins to properly connect each pin.

Few mobos have integrated Firewire (IEEE 1394) and yours is one of the many that lacks FW. You can add a card if you want it.
