Front Panel Audio connection help needed

I own an MSI 790GX-G65 with Realtek HD audio, installed in an NZXT Tempest case.
Using the AC-97 plug from the case into the MB JAUD1 connection I get front panel  headphone audio, but no mic input or automatic detection from the Realtek manager.
In short: Which plug(s) do I use on the MB socket JAUD1? I will detail my NZXT front panel connections.
NZXT Connectors:
Maxi Plugs:
HD Audio
AC-97
Mini-Plugs:
MIC-IN
Ground
L-Out
Ret-L
Ret-R
R-Out
MIC-VCC
FYI: I'm using Windows 7 64 bit. OS has been updated to current.
Thanks for your help.
Merry Christmas!
Robert

Ok. I checked and confirmed... I DID use HD Audio in JAUD1. I only thought I was using AC97... The problem still is:
Front Panel Headphones: Okay.
Front Panel Mic: Not detected at all.
Audio driver version is 6.0.1.6316
Audio Controller HD Audio
Audio Codec: ALC889
DX11
Window 7
Thanks for any further suggestions

  • Fronta panel audio connections on KM4M

    I got a pc case, and the cables for the front panel audio are: left  , right , mic, and ground. The front panel works fine, but the rear ports dont.
    What should i do to make it work?
    Maybe conect left in with left out and right in with right out?

    There must be a return from fron panel audio for rear ports to work
    What i did was to solder a piece of solid wire on the jumper, and simply plug in the front panel audio left and right in that wire and it works FINE

  • P35 Neo2 front panel audio connections

    Appologies if this has been covered elsewhere [I did search honest ]

    Speaker Right
    Speaker Left
    Speaker Right Rtn
    Speaker Left Rtn
    Mic IN

    ...and the motherboard JAUD1 connections are-

    Since the manual states these conections are compliant with the Intel front Panel and seems to mention HD audio, am I wasting my time? Obviously I'd like the rear speakers to be disabled when I connect the headphones at the front.
    Any clues?
    Cheers

    Have you checked in realtek's audio manager and see if you could switch between front and rear individually?
    Yes I did have a dig around with this because it senses when additional speakers etc are connect at the back. I cannot get the audio manager to acknowledge there is a front connect (with or without anything connected)

    Hi, i am curious about this add-on and was wondering where it can be purchased and for how much from australia.Message Edited by franpa on 02-09-20082:4 AM

    It seems its not available in your region (australia). You can call Creative Labs customer service to see if you can buy the SB X-Fi I/O upgrade kit. But, to give you an idea how much it costs, click on the US weblink below. You can maybe do a wide search on the internet to see if it's available in your area, or try eBay too.

     What case do you have? If it is an older case with AC97 audio then you would need to purchase something like one of these:  http://www.amazon.com/s/?ie=UTF8&keywords=hd+audio+front+panel&tag=googhydr-20&index=electronics&hvadid=54539991636&hvpos=1t2&hvexid=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=11069445173547096755&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=b&hvdev=c&ref=pd_sl_2w99a9udvo_b
     I simply got me an inexpensive case for my last upgrade since I also needed front panel USB 3 and up to date card reader in addition to the HD audio. My case was only $10 more (free shipping at time of purchase ) than the front panel module I needed so I got the new case you see in my signature instead.

  • Connecting the chassis-mounted front panel audio I/O module to the X-Fi Extreme Mu

    Hello to everybody.
    Many pc chassis provide two audio connectors on the front side, usually for the headphones with microphone.
    I need to know if I can connect the chassis-mounted front panel audio I/O module to the Sound Blaster X-Fi Extreme Music.
    I saw that the X-Fi Extreme Music has the internal connector (named AD_EXT) to connect . Is there a pin mapping of the AD_EXT connector? Is it possible to connect the chassis-mounted front panel I/O module cable to the proper pin of the AD_EXT connector?
    Thank you.

    Hi and thank you for your response.
    Unfortunatelly I actually haven't got a X-Fi card, because I need to know if I can connect the chassis-mounted front panel audio I/O module to the card before buying it.
    For this reason I don't know what is the J you're talking about. Is it an internal connector avaiable in the X-Fi Extreme Music card? Can I use this J to connect the chassis-mounted front panel audio I/O module to the card?
    Thank you.

  • K8NGM2-FID - connecting of front panel audio (AC'97)

    Hello,
    I have a K8NGM2-FID based pc running XP Prof. I have a Chieftec LCX-01B-B-SL case with front panel audio. This panel is compatible with AC'97 standard. PIN Assigment of the internal Frontpanel connectors for Audio is below described:
    I red in manual of my mobo:
    "The JAUD1 front panel audio connector allows you to connect to the front panel audio and is compliant with Intel® Front Panel I/O Connectivity Design Guide."
    I red Front Panel I/O Connectivity Design Guide (downloaded from intel site) and:
    "2.3.3 Audio Design Considerations
    Front panel audio design in conjunction with motherboard audio header design is dependant upon the type of audio CODEC being used on the motherboard. In the past, AC97 Integrated Audio CODECs were prevalent. With the introduction of Intel High Definition Audio, many new motherboard designs are switching over to High Definition (HD) audio CODECs. Designersshould note that AC’97 and Intel High Definition Audio front panel motherboards and I/O cardsimplementations are different and may not be directly compatible or interchangeable
    CAUTION
    It is strongly recommended that motherboard designers only use Intel® HD Audio analog front panel dongles with the Intel® HD Audio analog front panel header to insure that the jack detection and dynamic re-tasking capability is preserved. Passive AC’97 analog front panel dongles (ones which leave the 5V Analog pin-7 line unconnected on the dongle) may be used with the Intel® HD Audio analog front panel header. But note that the front panel jack detection and re-tasking functionality will be lost as the AC’97 jacks cannot support connection to the SENSE line. In addition, software must be aware that an AC’97 dongle is being used with an Intel® HD Audio analog header since the software might need to dedicate codec ports that are connected to the header to meet the product’s intended functionality.
    2.3.4.4 AC’97 Header Pin Jumpers
    The rear panel audio output jacks are disabled when headphones are plugged in. If the front panel interface board is not connected to the front panel audio header, jumpers should be installed across header pin pairs 1-2, 3-4, 5-6, and 9-10. If these jumpers are not installed, the rear panel line out connector will be inoperative and microphone input pins 1 and 3 will be left floating, which could lead to elevated back panel microphone noise and cross talk.
    NOTE
    Motherboards that have the foot print for a front panel header, but depopulate the front panel audio header must have 0 ohm resistors as options to connect the FP_OUT and FP_RETURN signals. These resistors must be installed when the header is depopulated to insure audio is routed
    to the back panel."
    Can I connect this front panel audio to front Panel Audio Connector (JAUD1) of K8NGM2-FID (Realtek High Definition Audio)? Will it be work correctly?

    No I don't think it will, I had the same problem with my Coolermaster Centurion case, the pin out configs are different. I just left it disconnected, and didn't worry about it

    You may tell us more information about your mainboard, please give us the detailed name of your mainboard. :D  Then there will be more users could give some suggestions.
    Sorry, there aren't that many K9N boards out there, but mine is the K9N Platinum MS7250 Version 1.0.  It's the AM2 non-SLI nVidia nForce 570 Chipset model.
    Thanks for any help.

  • Connecting Front Panel Audio to K8NGM2

    I am trying to connect the front panel Audio(Headphone Jack and Mic) I front panel wires are labeled R-In, R-Out, L-In, L-Out, Mic Bias and Mic and GND.The MBconnectors are labeled port 1L, GND, Port 1R, Presence #, Port 2R, Sense1_Return, Sense_Send, Key, Port 2L, Sense2_Return.
    Can this be done?

    I quess you guys got a AC97 configuration wire and have HD audio on board.
    I bough a new case some days ago and that one had a HD audio and a AC97 wire.
    you guys just cant connect it without the right wire.
    You can try to manualy put it in the right configuration because HD and AC97 use the same wires but other sequence.
    but I quess you cant pull them out of the jack so maybe you need to get a emty one and cut the wires off and put them in the right holes or something 
    or just buy a new case

  • Front panel audio jack is not working on K9N Neo V2

    My front panel audio jack is not working on K9N Neo V2. I check the JAUD1 cable and it appears to be connected to the front panel audio jack. My soundcard driver cannot detect any gadgets when I plug it in the front panel. My audio drivers and BIOS are up to date.  Is there any known solution to this? My computer is only a few months old and I have not tried the front audio jack until recently. I'm on Vista home premium btw.
    Also, I've got another problem, my processor is AMD 64x2 4400+ overclocked to 2.63Ghz. I've been using that clock value ever since I built this computer and stress tested the processor and found that it would not cause any problems like hanging or overheating. However, I recently decided the need for AMD's Cool & Quiet technology and enabled it. It caused BSODs every few days or per week that didn't happen before. I tried it with the default clock value and it still causes BSODs. Can someone help me?

    Quote
    Thanks. Its ironic that disabling it actually enables it.
    It has to day with the front panel audio wiring of your case.  How many wires are there that can be connected to the board's pin header?
    Quote
    Sound quality isn't very good
    Can you be more descriptive?  Is the quality better if you plug the headphone into one of the jack at the back panel?  (Also, make sure you tell the Realtek HD Audio Manager, that a headphone is connected (and not regular speakers).

    I've just recently had this similar problem. I think the issue in your case is step 3. I believe you should connect the Azalia 10pin wire to your X-fi card, not the mobo.
    My problem was that i had connected AC97 10pin wire to my X-fi, after which plugging in my headphones didn't mute my speakers.
    That was the problem - works great now!  Thanks
