Case Wires VS Mobo Firewire Pins Match and Help pls!

[Fingersniffer]

I just got a new case and I'm hooking it up to my mobo.

Well the Labels on the mobo and the case pins dont match up, I know this is my firewire hookup on the mobo.

here are the layouts on the mobo (forgive it not being straight, the * indicates the pin itself)

CGND - 10 * * 05 - PWR0
PWR0 - 09 *
B0MC - 08 * * 03 - B0PC
CGND - 07 * * 02 - GND
A0MC - 06 * * 01 - A0PC

Wire Labels from Case:

TPA+
TPA-
GND
TPB+
TPB-
VP
VG

Can anyone Tell me which pins to put which wires form my case pls?

look in your Mobo manul. should tell you.

that IS from the mobo manual, the mobo itself has nothing labeled

Use a test light or the ohm meter on your DDM to check the case 1394 wiring if it's not color coded or just to be sure.

I tried to help and will tell you a couple things but not in a spirit of rudeness.

everyone that builds a rig should have a DDM, cheap ones are $10, decent ones are $20.

No-one should relay on a PSU that comes with the case.

Sometimes the pdf manuals online are presented and translated better than the printed
ones that come with cases or boards. Some do get up-dated.

Hook-up the firewire later, when you are less frustrated.
