Connecting the Audio Ports
There is an Intel standard 10-pin connector (with 7 individual wires with
connectors) coming out from the front panel speaker and microphone connection.
If your motherboard supports Intel's standard onboard audio connector, you can
plug in the 10-pin connector directly onto the board. For non-Intel standard audio
connection, you need to plug the 7 individual connectors to the motherboard.
