Default Stacker 830 Front Panel

OK, so I'm setting up my new comp. I know where/how to plug the USB cables, and where to plug the front panel, like power switch, power LED, HDD LED, and Reset Switch, but I don't know how to plug them in. They are in 2-pin sets like [][], but can be [-][+] or [+][-]. Each cable has a black wire and a colored one, is black negative or positve?

OK, so to simplify, is a black wire negative or positive, or does it not matter? Will I damage my comp in any way if it's wrong? Thanks OCN, REP+ for help!

The "Power LED, Power SW, HD LED, Reset SW" go onto your motherboard. I'll try to find a pic in a minute.

Yeah, I know that, but I'm trying to figure out if the polarity matters, or which goes where. In my mobo manual it shows where they go, including the neg/pos, but I don't know which is the neg/pos, or if it even matters. thanks though, rep for trying! (especially if you get a pic)

Seems to be around where I circled, as for if they should be neg/pos or pos/neg I don't think that matters it might but I don't know.

My MS Paint skills are l33t.

Black is *usually* negative, but you may have some obscure wiring there.

My stacker has the colored one and a white one. i have an evga board and i had some issues with the HD led plug and maybe you'll have to relocate the cables in that plug.

A comp that i build for my bro's freind (i used a cooler master case $25 at svc.com with $8 shipping) it seemed like the power LED only wanted to work one way. I tried switching it around, and BAM! it worked!
