My system is an Antec Sonata and Intel 865GBF.
I hadn't used the front panel plugs in almost a year, but I decided to use it today. I plugged my headphones into the PINK jack (which only later I realized is for a MIC), and the system instantly powered off. I realize now I should have used the GREEN jack, but I didn't have the color codes memorized, and I thought it was the one on the left. It wasn't, but what's to explain what happened?
About a year ago after building the system, I did plug the same headset into the (GREEN) jack, and it worked fine. I haven't tried that yet again as an experiment until I'm out of Windows, and I'm certainly not going to try the PINK one again anytime soon.
Thanks
