Looking for ecs NFORCE6M-A (V2.0) manual specifically a diagram of where to plug in the various case panel switches/leds

http://www.ebay.com/itm/ECS-HT2000-AMD-AM2-Socket-mATX-DDR2-800-Motherboad-w-NVidia-Graphics-/251260314586?pt=Motherboards&hash=item3a804823da


1) Uses one 24-pin ATX main power cable.

Motherboard installed in computer case, the motherboard connector for the 24-pin ATX main power cable; is to the Right of the Blue IDE (PATA) connector.
(Right side of motherboard)

General example. Note that color does NOT matter of connector,

2) Uses one 4-pin ATX +12 Volt power cable,

Motherboard installed in computer case, the whitish square 4-socket hole connector, to the Bottom/Left corner of the Processor socket; is the 4-pin ATX +12 Volt power cable's motherboard connector.

General example. Note color does NOT matter of connector,

http://www.playtool.com/pages/psuconnectors/connectors.html#atx12v4

THAT, would be considered a Power Supply diagram of the motherboard.

They are the only two power cables that plug into the motherboard.

The front of your desktop computer is the Front Panel.

The area of contact pins on the motherboard, that the Main wires from the Front Panel go to, is the Front Panel header.

Power On switch, Power On LED, (Light Emitting Diode), Harddrive activity LED, and a Reset switch IF used.

It is my belief sir that you are referring to the ECS G31T-M7 (Version 1.0) motherboard. If I am incorrect please post back in a Comment.

Scroll down, and click on the Download tab.
(Features / Specification / Download / Support / FAQ / etc)

Now click on Manual.
(Driver / BIOS / Manual)

Scroll down, and click on the NAME of the country nearest yours.
There is the Motherboard User Manual in PDF file form.

For example;
The front of your computer is the Front Panel.
The area of contact pins on the motherboard, that the main wires from the Front Panel go to; is the Front Panel header.

Motherboard installed in computer case, with Processor to the Top, and Ram Memory slots to the Right; the Front Panel header is located at the Bottom/Right corner, to the left of the motherboard mounting hole.

F_PANEL
The Front Panel header pinout is on Page 29, of the PDF file.

There are 4 pins across the Top row, and 5 pins across the Bottom row.
The pins on Top are numbered EVEN.
The pins on Bottom are numbered ODD.

Starting on the LEFT side coming across to the Right side, Top row:
Pins 2, 4, 6, and 8. There is NO Pin 10.

Starting on the LEFT side coming across to the Right side, Bottom row;
Pins 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9.

A) Pins 1 and 3 are for the HarDDrive activity LED. (Light)
Pin 1 is for the Positive ( + ) wire.
If the HDD LED is dim when the harddrive is active, switch the wires around.

B) Pins 5 and 7 are for a Reset switch, IF a Reset switch is used.

C) Pin 9 is N/C. Not Connected.
This is probably a 5 Volt + point, reserved for factory testing.

D) Pins 2 and 4 are for the Power On LED.
(Light. It is a Light Emitting Diode)

Pin 2 is for the Positive ( + ) wire.
If the PWR LED is dim when the computer is on, switch the wires around.

E) Pins 6 and 8 are for the Power On switch.

Jumper settings are shown, Front Panel port header's pinouts are shown, etc.

Do you have a specific question? Please post back in a Comment.

The front of your computer is the Front Panel.
The area of contact pins on the motherboard, that the Main wires connect to, is the Front Panel header.
(Power On switch, Power On LED, HarDDrive activity LED, etc)

The Front Panel header is Black, rectangular in shape, and is situated in a vertical position; located in the Bottom Right corner of the motherboard. (Next to the mounting hole)

It is a standard 9-pin HP Front Panel header,

http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Desktop-Hardware/Getting-a-new-case-i-need-Front-Panel-pinout/td-p/842897

Scroll down to the 9-pin Front Panel header photo, and pinout.

The 4-pin side is the EVEN side. Pins 2, 4, 6, and 8. There is NO Pin 10.
The 5-pin side is the ODD side. Pins 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9.

A) Pins 1 and 3 are for the HarDDrive activity LED. (Light Emitting Diode, so it is redundant to call it a light)

Pin 1 is for the Positive ( + ) wire.
IF the HDD LED is dim when the harddrive is active, (IN use), switch the wires around.

B) Pins 5 and 7 are for a Reset switch, IF a Reset switch is used.

C) Pin 9 is N/C. Not Connected. Reserved for factory use, and it is +5 Volts.

D) Pins 2 and 4 are for the Power On LED.
Pin 2 is for the Positive ( + ) wire.
If the PWR LED is dim when the computer is on, switch the wires around.

E) Pins 6 and 8 are for the Power On switch.

Scroll the HP Support Motherboard Specification page down. Click on the + sign next to Motherboard Layout.

Left to Right on bottom edge of motherboard, Internal Connectors;

AUDIO_1 is for the audio ports on the Front Panel.
ATX_IN is where the small audio cable from the optical drive plugs in.
(CD/DVD drive)
IF TWO optical drives are used; the Main, or Primary optical drive, is connected with the small audio cable. NOT the secondary optical drive.

HD_AUDIO also connects to audio ports in the Front Panel.
May be mistaken, but don't believe SPDIF_OUT header is used.
1394A1 header is for the Firewire ports in the Front Panel (1394a)
USB 2 and USB 4 headers are for the Front Panel USB ports.
USB 1 and USB 3 should be for a Card Reader.

Need where the power cables go, and what they look like? Just post back in a Comment.

(Be SURE to FOLLOW Anti-Static Precautions)

[ Didn't think you actually wanted an actual circuit diagram. That is copyrighted by HP, and Elitegroup Computer Systems. (ECS)

If you are referring to the Front Panel Pins connections to the ATX casing cables. Then you can download the mainboard manual(pdf) from http://www.ecs.com.tw/ECSWebSite/Product/Product_Detail.aspx?DetailID=835&CategoryID=1&DetailName=Feature&MenuID=21&LanID=9
(refer to page 31 in the manual)

Hope it helps.

Here is the manual for your motherboard (since describing a diagram probably isn't very useful...)
http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/socket939/A8N-SLI/e2024_a8n-sli.pdf

You want to look at pages 27-35, they describe what you need to plug into the motherboard. Basically make sure you have connected:

1) 24-pin power cable (from power supply)
2) 4-pin power cable (for CPU from power supply)
3) Any case fans with 3/4 pin connectors.
3) hard drives (SATA or IDE)
4) USB front panel ports
5) Audio front panel ports
6) Case plugs (power LED, hdd LED, power switch, and reset switch).

If you have not removed the old motherboard from the case, then you can identify the various front panel connectors as you disconnect them and label them. Some front panel connectors have labels printed on the connectors which makes it easy for you to identify its purpose. If you have already removed the old motherboard then you will need to trace each of the leads to the front panel to see what they are connected to (eg. the LEDs and switches etc).
You will also need to identify on the new motherboard the various connectors for each function, eg power LED, hard drive LED, reset switch, power on switch, internal speaker etc. If you are lucky It may be printed on the motherboard, if not you will need to refer to the manual.
NOTE the LEDs are polarity sensitive, if the LED does not light, then swap the connector around the other way.

If you want to download the Manual for your Motherboard, I've included the link below. Otherwise I will provide a rough diagram of the Panel header for connecting your case to the Motherboard.

Goto page 10 in your user manual. There look for. Connect the case switches and indicator LEDs to the SW1. (Location).
There is mother board layout decription for how to connect the case, 2-pin wires case connectors ( Page 12 shows pin numbers & which is plus + & negative - pins.). You'll nee the manual to help you. Download it from ECS at: http://www.ecs.com.tw/ECSWebSite/Products/ProductsDetail.aspx?detailid=579&DetailName=Manual&MenuID=48&LanID=0

Good luck!
