Do you not have the mobo manual? It should show the pin diagram of where everything is. If not, check the mobo web site, and look at the manual from there. Also, if you look at the two rows of pins where they should go, there is writing next to each where the certain plugs should go. (i.e. rst-RESET, pwr=POWER, IDE= hard drive LED, etc, etc)
 
the more important thing are the reset SW and Power SW, and they do not matter which way to plug in as long as they are plug in the right pins (check the manual for layout, these pins are at your lower left of the board if Power plug on upper right. Or say bottom-front if you have a tower case).
The leads and pins from case for the Hard drive LED and Power LED usually have words on them. I found they are most like plug facing the words to the front of the case. And they are facing same side (both to front, or both to back) If no light turn on when you power up, just reverse those two will be fine (good to flip them when power off, but not necessary)

Don't forget there is a speaker wire.

I will say it is harder to install CPU and floppy cable right than those. So you are half way there. Good luck.
Make sure your heat sink is level, by looking at the bottom of the heat sink....then it will make good contact with the CPU.
 
Guy77Malette,

List the labels on your case wire connectors and I will tell you how they match them up to your motherboard pins.
 
You can't plug in the Power light on most cases into this particular mobo without modding it. The motherboard has two pins for it and the plug is usually three pins wide. You can cut it and match the right pin to the right plug or just leave it be. I don't care about the Power light so it isn't attached. The rest are fairly obvious and the mobo manual spells it out if you crack it open. 🙂
