I cant really answer your question but i had a similar problem with my antec case, my case had more wires than my motherboard had to hook them all up to so i had to just hook up the main leds like the power/ground/green led and yellow proc led, there where a few others but my board didnt have the connections for them so i left them off all works fine tho.

So should I connect whatever I can?

your mb should dictate what to hook up....lots of cases come with stuff not on mb's.....check the manual for the mb and make sure all the control(on,off,hdd,spkr...etc.) wires are hooked up right. the rest shouldnt matter to the system itselffor operation. my thermaltake case had extra options in it that my mb didnt use so the wires just got tiewrapped out of the way.

Ok I did all that now, But now everything turns on like the lights for only a second then turns off. what does that mean? Like the fans start for 0.1seconds. ???

EDIT: Do I need to leave it be for awhile?

go grab you mobo manual, and loook for front I/O or fornt power switch and the likes,

make sure you have the power stich plugged in correctly, if it acts strangely at first try flipping it over so the seperate wires are reversed, i had this problem a few times, turns out i had the wires on backwards.

i always find hooking this typ of thing up annoying, it's the last thing i do before putting the powersupply back into the case, i usually work form one end to the other, so it's easier, i usually get it wrong a few times, so i do it about 3 times to make sure all my buttons and LED's are working. and my front audio, and USB and all that...

if you put the USB in, make sure that's all in right, i find it easier to get the order i need and hold all 4 plugs together, and push all 4 of one row of plugs over the pins at once, then repeat for the second row of pins, you will have 2 pins left over if yours is like mine... but i think my mobo doesn't support front USB 2 sooo....

if it's not that i'm unsure, make sure the addition P4 12v power plug is in (the little square 4 pin plug) as the system might not have enough power to boot up...

hey On mine I have white\green=power led,white\orange=power switch,white\red=HHD led.white\blue=reset switch

check to make sure they didn't put the wrong connector on the wrong wires...............my FRONT USB connector was wrong could be your power is wrong..........sounds like your power and reset are backwards...........let us know
