I don't want to screw anything up and any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks and have a great day!!!

Hi Frankenputer,
I'd also like to thank you for such a fast response! I do have a copy of the manual in my grubby little hands and I did read it. That's how I was able to identify the motherboard pinouts in my first post. I guess that one slipped by you . The link you provided is great, it'll come in handy if I ever misplace the manual down the road.
My problem stems from the way the case manufacturer labelled the wires for the front audio connector e.g. using a naming convention that differs from that of the Intel Front Panel I/O Connectivity specification. Specifically the Mic-VCC, Line-L and Line-R wires.
Stated simply, I was hoping one of the experts here might be able to tell me/confirm if Mic-VCC should be connected to pin 3 - AUD_MIC_BIAS or to pin 4 - AUD_VCC, and if Line-R should be connected to pin 6 and Line-L to pin 10 on the motherboard.
Again, thanks for your reply and have a great day!!!
Fred

HELP ! 875P Neo JAUD1 for front Audio with Thermaltake XASER III

I am trying to connect my new Thermalake case V2000A (the aluminium tower with 7 FANs) front (well top) audio connetors to JAUD1 on the motherboard (875P Neo FiS2R)
The XASER III wires say :
EAR L jumped with EAR L (Case manual says connect two "EAR L" to "BLINE_OUT_L" and "Line out_L" on motherboard)
EAR R jumped with EAR R (Case manual says connect two "EAR R" to "BLINE_OUT_R" and "Line out_R" on motherboard)
GND (Case manual says connect to "GROUND" or "AGND" on motherboard)
MIC IN (Case manual says connect to "MIC INPUT" or "MIC 2" on motherboard)
MIC VCC (Case manual says connect to "MIC POWER" or "MICPWR" on motherboard)
The JAUD1 connector on the motherboard comes with TWO green jumpers out of factory. One jumper shorting pins 9 & 10 and the other jumper shorting pins 5 & 6.
Page 2-25 of the motherboard manual says:
Pin 1 - AUD_MIC Front Panel Microphone input signal
Pin 2 - AUD_GND Ground used by analog Audio Circuits
Pin 3 - AUD_MIC_BIAS Microphone Power
Pin 4 - AUD_VCC Filtered +5V used by analog audio circuits
Pin 5 - AUD_FPOUT_R Right Channel audio signal to front panel
Pin 6 - AUD_RET_R Right channel audio signal return from front panel
pin 7 - HP_ON Reserved for future use to control headphone amplifier
pin 8 - KEY No pin
pin 9 - AUD_FPOUT_L Left channel audio signal to front panel
pin 10 - AUD_RET_L Left channel audio signal return from front panel
Now, I assume :
Case "MIC VCC" should go on Pin 3 (or maybe Pin 4 ?)
Case "MIC IN" should go on Pin 1
Case "GND" should go on Pin 2
Case "EAR R" should go on Pins 5 & 6 (I need to REMOVE the green jumper ?)
Case "EAR L" should go on Pins 9 & 10 (I need to REMOVE the green jumper ?)
Thanks for all help !

I have yet to put the PCI cards inside but so far I was able to reach that end corner of the motherboard with the case top sound cables.
As soon as I get answers on this Forum to my queries from more knowledged people about the right cabling (this and other posts on firewire and something else), I will then be able to finish all connections and finally place also the PCI cards and the video card and will let you know if it all went ok without the sound case cable stretching too much.
Thanks.

Help with USB for front Panel on case!!

Ive got the K7N2G mobo and Im trying to connect to JBT1 for Front USB.. it mentions bluetooth connection but it also talks about it being for USB.. Pleas help.. am i missing a bios setting? How else can i get the front sub ports to work on my case?

You got mixed up, JBT1 shares a USB connection with a USB header. If you use JBT1 for bluetooth you must give up one of the USB ports but you can't use JBT1 for USB.
And I moved you over to the nvidia/sis section since you posted in the VIA section.

Can anyone help me sort out the audio on my k8n neo2

Audio has never been one of my strong points so im stuck trying to get the onboard sound on my k8n neo2 board to work properly. The case i have has front connections for headphones and another for microphone. Ive managed to get the front headphone jack to work i havnt got a mic so i cant try that. I have tried connecting my stereo speakers (part of my monitor) to the line out at rear (green jack plug) , i notice in the msi sound manager they refer to this connector as front speaker out. I had no sound at all until i came across aforesaid msi sound manager, the only way i can get sound is by going into this manager and selecting "speaker configuration" and either selecting 8 or 6 channel which i havnt got but at least i can hear a cd when its playing. The problem with this is that when i boot into windows there is no sound played. I have noticed in the mobo manual page E-2-20 under msi reminds you.. If you dont want to connect to the front audio header (JAUD1), pins 5&6, 9&10 have to be jumpered in order to have signal output directed to rear audio audio ports. Otherwise the line-out connector on back panel will not function. Wonder if this has something to do with it. I encclose an image showing the relevant mobo page with connection instructions and the wiring of front panel jacks from my case instructions.
on the JAUD1 pins 6 and 10 audio signal returns for right and left channel but my case wiring only had a single return in the form of the shield braid so i split it in two and connected to pins 6&10 to see if this would cure the no sound problem, it didnt. Just hoping the image is big enough for people to read. Hope someone can help with this.

Well lets see if I can help.
Connect like this:
Red---->Aud_fpout_L
Jump with Red---->Aud_ret_L
White---->Aud_fpout_R
Jump with white---->Aud_ret_R
I think is... Spiral---->Aud_gnd this you have to share with the mic that is also Spiral
As for the mic .... MIC power---->Aud_mic_bias
MIC-IN---->AUD_mic
And I think that's it....
Be well....

Front audio connection on Antec Sonata case

I'm building a new system with K8N Neo Platinum and Antec Sonata. It's more or less working now execpt for bits and pieces here and there. I've been scratching my head over the audio connection all afternoon. The only way I can get audio signal to come out at all is to unplug the front audio line, put the jumpers back and get it out of the back.
Did anybody manage to get the front panel audio connection on the Sonata working at all? The pinout for JAUD1 on page 2-20 of the Neo Platinum manual looks exactly the same as front audio header header pin assignment on page 20 of the Intel Front Panel I/O Connectivity Guide. On the Sonata side, page 4 of the Sonata manual says "If your motherboard supports Intel's standard onboard audio connector, you can plug the 10-pin connector directly onto the board". So far so good. Then the Sonata manual goes on to say on page 5:
8. Rear Right Speaker Out Pin: Connect the RET-R connector to this pin.
9. Reat Left Speaker Out Pin: Connect RET-L connector to this pin.
Note: Your motherboard may not support rear speaker output. In this case, you do not need to connect RET-R and RET-L.
This last part makes no sense at all. According to the Intel document, those RET lines are signals returning from the front panel. They have nothing to do with rear channel, and they must be connected or you won't get anything from the rear line out jack. So what's really going on? Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
Andy

Those 8, 9 and the notes only apply if your motherboard does not have the Intel compatibile IO connectors. So you should ignore those lines.

Front Audio Help

hey guys, need some help with Front audio on my new board and case
heres what i got
KT6V
Powmax 0212,
2 grounds on the case wiring and 1 on the board

Hi,
You can probably get by using either of the GND connections to the mobo. If you have a continuity tester of some sort, you could work out which one goes to the common of the audio out connector, but I reckon you'll find they are both connected. The two Mic In lines is a bit confusing though
But don't panic, you are unlikely to do any damage by experimenting, as long as you avoid the AUD-VCC line.
Cheers

Front audio port not working please help..

Hey guys,
My HP Pavilion DV2275ea front audio jack does not work, I have tried many different headsets as the mic jack works just fine. I have tried reinstalling audio drivers (Conexant High-Definition Audio Chip) and still nothing. I have look at the support advice posted to no avail. Is there anything else i could try?
A friend said it could be turned off in the bios but i am not able to get in as i don't know the password for the phoenix bios, could this be true?
Any help will be greatly appreciated

Well from looking at a jpeg of your board the front usb headers are laid out just like my board. Each set of headers support 2 usb ports each. That gives you the 4 in the rear and 4 for the front.
Now as to the pinouts, 1+3+5+7+9 is 1 set and 2+4+6+8+10 is the 2nd set, with pins 1 and 2 being the 5V power pins. Pins 7 and 8 are your grounds. 3 and 4 are the usbo- and usb1-. Pins 5 and 6 are usbo+ and usb1+. Pin 9 is the "key" pin and may actually be missing by intention. Key 10 is sometimes called the usboc pin and normally isn't used. On some boards you don't want anything connected to pin 10, even if you have to snip the wire going to it and terminate the end of the wire with insulating tape.
Your motherboard manual should show you the pin layout.

Connecting SB Live! 5.1 to front audio po

Hi!
I have OEM version of SB Li've! 5. that I've bought with Creative Inspire 500 speakers. I also have a case with front audio ports but the problem is that I don't know how to connect soundcard with these ports. I haven't found any info about such possibility in manual but i have only short version of manual 'How to install'. Is there any possibility to connect my SB with the front ports? If there is - how can I do it's
Regards,
vacu
ps.
sorry for my English, I hope you understand me

If you can find a 0-pin socket on Li've! card board, then you can connet your card output internally to the case audio/mic ports by following instructions given @ http://audigy2zshowto.blogspot.com/
NOTE: pin orde may be different on Li've! (instructions are for Audigy 2 Zs, but works well least w/ Audigy 2 card too (I have done this)).

(help) front audio panel cords-- sound card??

Dear all....
I have an ancient SB Li've! 24 bit SB 040.
Can anybody help me how to connect front audio header (casing) onto the card (ceati've proprietary connector)?
There are 0 pin connector on the card while the casing itself has only 7 pin.
Regards,

I was wondering that myself. The only thing I think you could possibly do is have both the onboard and the pci sound card enabled and use the onboard sound just for the headphones. I have no tried this yet as I do have the cables connected to the mobo but I have the onboard sound disabled.

Any way to utilize front audio ports on cas

I picked up the Creative X-Fi XtremeMusic today at a local store since the rest of the hardware will be coming in tommorrow (forgot to order a sound card, hence the reason I bought it at the store). Anyways, the case I ordered has a speaker and mic plug in the front of the case. Is there any way to use these things with the Creative X-Fi XtremeMusic? I switch from my speakers to headphones a lot and really find it annoying crawling behind the computer every time I need to. ;P Front audio ports would make things extremely convinient.
So, any possiblities with the X-Fi XtremeMusic?
If that's not possible, could I plug in the headphones to the third output on the card since I'm only running a 4. speaker setup?

Incase anyone else needs it, here are the pinouts:
- Analog Ground
2 - Analog Headphone Out Left
3 - Audio Backpanel Mute -- short to ground to mute the backpanel (when headphones are plugged in)
4 - Analog Headphone Out Right
5 - same as #3
6 - Mic input from front panel
7 - key pin (shouldn't be there)
8 - VREF out -- voltage reference for Mic
9 - MIC IN MUTE -- ground when mic isn't plugged in, +2VDC when mic is plugged in
0 - Audio cable detect -- will be ground when headphones are plugged in (not normally used)

Connecting front panel on case to motherboard

I've just bought a new case for my computer and it has connections on the front for USB and Firewire but i don't know where to attach them to my mobo. Anybody know where they go.

well, i would usually use JUSB2 and JLED1 for the LED Bracket (JLED1 looks like USB but it isn't, its for the LEDs)
so really, you'll probably want to use JUSB3 for front panel
DEL gave you pinouts for the USB, but it's all in your manual...
when he says block he means they basically look like the connector on the MSI USB (led bracket) bracket thingy... all in one, easy to plug-in 'block'
you say you've got them where they are all separate.... well they should at least be labeled... if they are, just match up the labeled wires with what is says in the manual they give all the info you need... (what DEL gave you)
THE SAME is true for the Firewire, if you've got the same 1 pin at a time connectors.. just follow what it says in your manual, and plug it in according to the labels on your each individual wires....

Fuzzy 945gm2 front audio

Hi,
I have an msi industrial motherboard. It is the min itx mobile core 2 duo motherboard which I use as a super quiet htpc/workstation. I've built my own case etc. and now I want to connect a 3.5mm front audio socket to the motherboard. I can't make any sense of the stuff in the manual about the JAUD1 front connector. I don't think it is the usual one on the other msi motherboards, and I don't see words like right out and left/right return. left out is there in the table on its own, none of the others though.
Can any one help me please?
Thanks,
Shailen.

The Fuzzy 945GM2/945GME2 share the same manual. If anyone can help figure it out here is the pinout for it:

If you bought a new case, it should have something on paper that shows the front conecter pinouts for the front audio connecters.
Hello again.
On the JAUD there are 9 pins (but only 8 of which are active).
There are 7 connectors for the front (4 speakers, 1 ground and then the 2 MIC)).
And whilst this case is new, my only complaint is that there is no wiring instructions.
I hope that helps.
Thanks

Front audio problem

I purchased a K7N2 Delta NVIDIA nForce 2 FSB 400 Motherboard, and installed it today. I have everything working except for the front audio port. The power supply that I have (ATX) has eight cords for the front audio:
1 R In
2 R Out
3 L In
4 L Out
5 Mic-In
6 Mic-In
7 Gnd
8 Gnd
However, in the manual describing the JAUD1 Front Audio Connector it lists ten (two of which have no pins):
1 AUD_MIC
2 AUD_GND
3 AUD_MIC_BIAS
4 AUD_VCC
5 AUD_FPOUT_R
6 AUD_RET_R
7 HP_ON (No Pin)
8 KEY (No Pin)
9 AUD_FPOUT_L
10 AUD_RET_L
So I have two questions:
1. To which port of the JAUD1 panel of the motherboard am I supposed to connect the above eight plugs? I tried different combos with no success.
2. After I figure out which plugs to go into where, do I need to dl the Realtex AC97 drivers, or do I only need to do that if I still have problems.
You guys rock. Thank you very much for your help. I look forward to hearing back from you.

Try this (Case connection -> Mobo connection)
1 R In -> 5 Aud_FPOut_R
2 R Out -> 6 Aud_Ret_R
3 L In -> 9 Aud_FPOut_L
4 L Out -> 10 Aud_Ret_L
5 Mic In -> 1 Aud_Mic
6 Mic In -> 1 Aud Mic - Try this instead of 5 if mic doesn't work
7 Gnd -> 2 Aud_Gnd
8 -> 2 Aud_Gnd - Try instead of 7 (or might need to splice them together)
You might need to swap 1&2, and 3&4, depending on what they class as "In" or "Out"
There should currently be a jumper on JAUD1 between pins 5&6 and 9&10
You should get audio out on the rear green socket if there is nothing plugged into the FP socket. (My case doesn't have the switched audio returns from the FP, so I wired it so that the jumpered pins were still connected to each other, as well as to the FP connector.)
Drivers would probably be a good idea.
Cheers
