Well I finally got my new computer built last night after months and months of saving to buy parts. Got everything installed and booted up on first try. Not too bad for my first time ever building a computer. But I just wanted to say thank you to everyone here on this forum who has helped me over the last few months. Without the help of this community I would have never been able to do it.
That out of the way I do have a question or two. The motherboard that I am using is the Asus K8NE-Deluxe and the case that I am using is a RaidMax 668 gaming case. The question I have is, I think that I have all of the audio connectors placed right but I can not really tell since I do not have speakers as of right now. Would I still be able to have sound through the small little speaker that is on the case. I figured I should be able to but once XP installed last night I had no sound at all. I am thinking that I may have connected the cable backwards on the motherboard. The only indicator of which way to connect it was a little arrow on the wire coming from the case. Does anyone know if this arrow would go on the ground side or the other side since it only had two prongs. The links to the board and the case's website are listed below.
