hi all its my 1st post forgive me. i baught a msi 890fxa-gd70 off of ebay "used" it works it runs great everythings fine. but the front io for the power and reset dont work. the power led works witch is the weird part. if it wasent for the power button on the board itself idk how i could get it on i can send some pics idk if theres a jumper somewhere on the board or what its not that big of a deal i can just leave the side off on my desk but its just sorta bugging me the pins are fine and i dont see any damage to the chip or elce the led wouldn't go on eather i guess if you guys have any ideas let me know. thanks

just a very old mobo

 

re-check all the connections for the PWR, HDD and LED for the front panel

 

if they look fine

 

make yourself some small jumper cable and get some push button switch from any electronic stores as a replacement for the switches on your casing

is it likely tho that the reset and power are faulty but the led and audio are fine @draggon20005?

yea buttons do wear out so you can't press them anymore

 

my power button do get stuck sometimes on my casing

there like a TON of pins on this for some reason idk why i was thinking make it could be missing a jumper or something the guy i bought it from wont respond to me at all about it

i literally just got the case tho like 2 days ago =/

that not the correct place to wire them

 

that is for the Serial COM port

 

 

the front panel are suppose to connect to the JFP1 and JFP2

well glad that works out

 

maybe you can download the mobo manual and refer to the jumper pinouts for the power and HDD LEDs they need to go in one direction

 

LED only work one current direction
