Dell Mobo Problems...

[the21robot]

I got a new 200r and I managed to find the power switch pins, but since Dell does not have a MOBO manual I can't find the pins for my LEDs. I know I should upgrade my MOBO but I spent like $400 in the last 6 months on my computer. So my question is where should I plug the LEDs in? And does any one know a good usb 3.0 to usb 2.0 internal adapter?

can u show us a picture of the board down the bottom and do u know the model number of the board? 

 

as for the adapter anyone should be fine.

NO! That is the Dell part number.

 

All Dell's have a serial number on the back of the case (Desktops) or bottom (Laptops), it should contain Letters (in caps) and numbers. Some newer desktops have a black sticker with white writing on the top of the case. If you still have the default OS installed there's a Dell app that will list it. You can also go into BIOS to view it.

The first 6-digit code represent the motherboard model. I agree the bios would be easier in the end.. Lol.

 

You could also run "DxDiag" from either your search menu on your desktop, that should tell you as well..
