  • Help with front panel audio on K9N board.

    Okay, I admit I'm a bit of a moron with front panel audio but I just can't figure out how to configure this board with my case.  Here are the pins:
    Case:
    Mic In
    Mic Bias

    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.

  • Audigy SE: Possibility to connect with front panel audio in/

    I have a case which has an audio in and out jack on the frontcase. Is it possible to connect these with an connector on the Audigy SE?

    Quote from: msiAMD6400 on 25-December-07, 21:57:43
    My "disable front panel detection" is unchecked.
    It is not clear to me if you were able to check (enable) the box. The setting you need is "disable front panel detection" checked; that means the motherboard delivers the output to front panel, irrespective of there is a headphone connected or not.
    If you are unable to check that box, i am not sure where is the problem. If you can, i expect you see a pop up window asking you what you have connected to the front panel, by default it should be an audio output option like headphone. Make sure, as I mentioned already, that you can see inside the audio software window the status of all the audio input/output sockets in different colours. The 2 icons representing the frontpanel should be highlighted and you should be able to designate what output/input you want from each of them. If this doesn't happen there is no point in connecting the audio out cable to the header (unless you have the appropriate MSI frontpanel cable which provides jack detection)
    If you have successfully disabled the detection, you just need 3 wires to get output (things work when they are simple). Forget about the looping; you don't need them if jack detection is disabled.
    I suggest you connect the 3 wires to the pins as shown in the manual.
    Note the pin configuration diagram for the "JAUD1" header. I think the common/ground wire from your headphone socket should be  to pin 2, Right out to pin 5 and left out to pin 9.
    Let us know of your results.

  • Problem with front panel USB connector

    Motherboard: MS-6750
    I have a problem with my front panel USB connector JUSB2 not working.
    I have checked the connection to be sure that it is oriented correctly.
    I also made sure that it was enabled in the BIOS.
    Still no luck.  There is not any voltage on this either.
    I see a jumper or pin labeled JGS1 just below the JDLED1...do not know what this is and cannot find it in the manual.
    Any ideas on what this is and how I might trouble shoot the USB connector?

    Which 6570 MB do you have, if its the K7N2 Delta 2 Platinum and came with the Dled bracket try plugging that into that port on the mainboard  and see if those usb ports work as it could be the usb hub itself not working on the front. Hope this helps  Dok

  • 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

  • Front panel audio to sb live audigy2

    hi all
    i got a new tower case with front panel audio (mic, headphone, audio-in & audio-out)is there a way to pin these to my li've audigy2 zs? i've got the onboard audio turned off in the bios so i'm assuming the motherboard pins won't work with this turned off, and i'd much rather pass everthing thru my soundblast card. i don't need all the extra stuff the "li've dri've" has (too bad creative does not make a basic li've dri've with, mic, headphone, audio-in & audio-out and usb & firewire ports).
    thanks for any help

  • MSI K9A2-CF front panel audio problem

    Just rebuilt a computer using the board. Please note, I have not updated the BIOS at all and I am using XP Pro. Anywho, I've tried everything under the sun, so far, aside from previously stated, to get this sucker to work. I have it connected properly, I've installed every audio driver on the motherboard CD. I can't find a setting in the BIOS to turn on front panel audio either. Everything else works fine though. USB's, HD audio connections in the back, etc. The program in windows will detect all inputs except for the front audio in and out.
    I'm a bit stumped. Any suggestions?

    Quote from: Bas on 17-August-09, 22:22:14
    You have to check the wires on the plug, looks like they are wrong or the case-module is broken somewhere.
    You have to start checking and measuring with an Ohm-meter.
    Remember, neither case front worked. I'm not saying it couldn't be the case, but I'll try to get my hands on an Ohm-meter. Where can I find out what values I'm looking for? I know next to nothing about testing to that extent.
    Also, what if it's the motherboard itself? Isn't there somewhere in the bios and/or windows device manager that I can confirm whether or not the device itself is working, or not working, properly?
    Thanks for your replies so far.
    Mike,
    I honestly don't know, but the case only has one audio cable, and the MB only has one audio plug-in for the front panel. I have both drivers installed. The on-board audio plug-in on the rear of the computer works fine. I can get sound, etc, no problem from the rear. Front panel only is not working.

  • K8N Neo Platinum + Sonata Front Panel Audio Problem

    Hello,
    The front panel audio speaker output is reversed when using headphones on my K8N Neo Platinum and Antec Sonata case. If I swap the left and right front panel audio output signal connectors, the headphone speakers are fine, but then my normal front speakers are reversed. All other connectors seem to be plugged in correctly. I've tried using nvswap, but doesn't seem to work on nForce3. Currently using Realtek driver version 5.10.0.5620 (had the same problem with the drivers included on mb cd) on WinXP Pro SP1 and 5.1 speaker setup (would like to use FPA for mic/headphones while gaming).
    Let me know if you need any additional info.
    Thanks.

    I am having the same problem as well.  Was able to correct front output jack by switching the connections.  But rear audio is still backwards.  I havent tried any sort of 5.1 or 7.1 channel audio setups

  • P35 Platinum front panel audio with Antec P180 case?

    God I have a headache after reading all those "front panel audio" threads.  Why can't mb's all use the same freaking pinouts!!!!
    The case doesn't have a HD front panel.
    MB pinouts are:
    1. Mic_L         (MIC Left Channel)
    2. GND
    3. MIC_R        (MIC Right Channel)

    7. Front_JD
    8. NC (empty)
    9. LINEout_L    (analog port left channel)
    10. LINEout_JD
    Case Front Panel connector is a preconfigured block with pigtails hanging off in case it doesn't match up.
    1. MIC Signal
    2. MIC Power (MIC BIAS)
    3. Ground
    4. FPOUT-R (front right)
    5. FPOUT-L (front left)
    6. RET-R (rear right)
    7. RET-R (rear left)
    glaring differences are the ground and the MIC connectors.
    How do I connect these?  I don't want to fry anything.
    Thanks.

     They do have the same pinouts. There are two standards is the reason for two different pinouts. It's just that your MB is Intel HD and your case is AC-97.

  • No sound front panel audio with newest CMI 9880L driver

    So basically I plugged in a headphone the other day on the front panel and noticed the audio jack randomly stopped working. They  worked for about 3 years and the last changes I've made was updating the CMI 9880L driver to the newest one on the MSI website for my mainboard( 915P combo), about a month ago. So I thought the problem was the new driver, I went back to the CD that came with the board and installed the audio drivers I had before, It also didnt work!. I went to the hardware manager and clicked on the ROLL BACK driver button and it installed a microsoft driver, this time the front audio jacks DID work, this means is not a hardware problem. What is going on with the new C-MEDIA driver? what should I do to restore sound to the front jacks?
    ps. I messed around with the BIOS options(switching between Azalia and AC97) and nothing happened.

    I am quite confused... would appreciate your help.
    Well, so was I. A good explanation can be found at
    http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/sb/cs-015851.htm
    The point is, that the same output can be used either for AC-97 front panel audio (what you have on your chassis) or for High Definition Audio (which I've never seen). The board seems to differentiate between these two by means of the PIN #4 (Presence), which you just leave disconnected in your case.
    Microphone should use PINs 1, 2 and 3:
    1 - Mic In, 2 - Ground, 3 - Mic Power
    Audio output should use PINs 5, 6, 9 and 10:
    5 - R-Out, 6 - R-RET, 9 - L-Out, 10 - L-RET.
    After you'll have connected the PINs to the audio connectors, do not forget to turn off the jack detection in the "Realtek HD Audio Manager" as I described before.

  • Front Panel Audio Problems

    I'm trying to make sense of the JAUD1 descriptions and enable the front panel audio jacks to work but it seems the mobo doc and the casing connectors have entirely different descriptions.
    The JAUD1 has these:
    Pin1 AUD_MIC
    Pin2 AUD_GND
    Pin3 AUD_MIC_BIAS
    Pin4 AUD_VCC
    Pin5 AUD_FPOUT_R
    Pin6 AUD_RET_R

    What is going on??? Please help! ;(

    Although it doesn't make sense as LineIn - SPKO_L/SPKO_R, I read as Speaker Out though. EARO_L/EARO_R should be headphone out.

  • Z77A-GD65 and front panel audio problem !!

    I have a Z77A-GD65 and a case CM 690 II advanced window, and i connected the front panel audio correctly in the right port, and when i plug my headphones in the front audio jack, there is no sound !!!
    Please help me !!

    Ok, i've did this thing, now works, but the sound sounds only in the right side of the headphones, and the sound is very very slow....
    which of the 2 audio header plugs did you connect to the mother board ac97 or HDaudio?
    have you connected the headphones to the rear pannel connector of the motherboard to see if its better?

  • 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).

  • MSI P965 Platinum - Front Panel Audio u/s

    Finally after managing to get XP Pro SP1 CD to install, I have a stable system, and thanks to those whom freely gave advice.
    But we hit the next issue with this motherboard, the front panel audio.
    Firstly the Realtek detection software doesn't detect anything plugged into the front panel.
    Connected the cables as follows from my Coolermaster Stacker case;
    mobo                = case wires/colour
    pin1 aud-mic      = mic-in - yellow
    pin2 aug-gnd      = gnd - black
    pin3 aud-mc-bas = mic-pwr - red
    pin4 aud-vcc      = empty
    pin5 aud-fpout-R = R out - green
    pin6 aud-ret-R    = R ret - green
    pin7 hp-on          = empty
    pin8 key
    pin9 aud-fpout-L = L out - white
    pin0 aud-ret-L    = L ret - white
    The above pin out gives nothing at all, but audio from rear ports on the computer motherboard is fine.
    I also tried the following,
    where the microphone wires were left disconnected, therefore just the speakers plugged into the front panel audio header
    mobo                = case wires/colour
    pin1 aud-mic      =
    pin2 aug-gnd      = gnd - black
    pin3 aud-mc-bas =
    pin4 aud-vcc      = empty
    pin5 aud-fpout-R = R out - green
    pin6 aud-ret-R    = R ret - green
    pin7 hp-on          = empty
    pin8 key
    pin9 aud-fpout-L = L out - white
    pin0 aud-ret-L    = L ret - white
    The above still gave me no audio out from the front panel.
    Intrestingly if I leave the front panel audio header blank, I still get rear audio fine, where I would have expected to have put jumpers across the L and R outputs as is the norm.
    I have removed the front panel from the computer to ensure that the wires terminate OK, and have not been pulled out/off.
    Have I plugged in the wires correctly?
    Is there some hidden setting that I have missed, I admit that I do not like the Realtek audio software?
    I cannot find any way to boost the microphone input since Realtek audio software has been installed.
    One day case/mobo manufactures will use a standard for the front panel headers and front panel audio headers, and we will have a simple single plug to insert, rather than a group of single fiddly connectors that have to be attached to a header that was at the last minute attached to the motherboard as far away from the front of the case, and in the darkest most fiddle corner.
    Oh well......
    Cheers

    AaronYuri - you're are so right there my friend.  I just pity Joe User whom might attempt such a move themselves.
    In the end my entire issue was software related, and that has to be blamed on Realteks software, far too many options approached from far too many different angles. Audio is really simple, plug your cables in, and it should just work, certainly in the simple case of 2-1 speakers and a microphone. Why exactly it took a couple of hours to figure out how to get the front panel microphone to be seen in the first place, let alone any signal, is beyond me.
    So my cables were all connected correctly as per the MSI manual, confirmed by my Abit manual and other post here and on other forums.
    In the Realtek MSI audio software, on the I/O Audio tab, connector settings, I had to select 'disable front panel jack detection' and 'mute rear panel output when front headphones plugged in'. The other option here 'enable auto pop up...' is unchecked.
    After this the Realtek software mentioned something about a new profile had been set up?
    I then went to Windows Control Panel, Sounds and Audio devices, and selected the voice tab, on this page I selected 'mic IN at front panel [pink]' from the drop down list for Voice Recording'. Proceeded to 'test hardware' and the microphone is now working. This option to select the input in the drop down list was not available before.
    All a bit of POKE and HOPE.
    But we seem to be there.
